"Five Star Performers! It is a pleasure for me to write a review for the Celtic Bagpipe Team! They are an amazing duo, who are very professional, knowledgeable, punctual and fun to work with. They had a pivotal role during our university’s presidential inauguration, and they didn’t skip a beat. Amazing performance! My deepest gratitude, KLW"

"The Devil's Tailors were fantastic. They were easy to work with and helped make our wedding event one to remember. They traveled all the way to Arizona from the east coast. I was grateful for their effort and desire to do it at a reasonable price. Everyone loved the bagpipes and the dancing with the fiddle and the piano. They called out the dances while everyone participated and everyone learned how to do them easily. Everyone was anticipating the next number when they could do it again. I definitely recommend using The Devil's Tailors for your next event. If you are thinking about having Scottish dancing at your event, but don't know if it would be fun, I will tell you to book them right now. It is an amazing time. And if you have had Scottish dancing before, The Devil's Tailors will do a wonderful job. "

Jamie, Thanks so much for your kind words! We had such a great experience and the wedding guests were some of the most spirited dancers we've had the pleasure to play for. Peter

"Annasach played for our wedding in June 2018 near Livingston, where most of the guests were not regular ceilidh goers but almost all got up to give it a go! Thanks to the team for the rousing tunes and good calling, which made even the novices feel that they could join in the fun. We loved Auld Lang Syne at the end too - a brilliant end to our special day. Annasach were easy to deal with and professional from the beginning, we would definitely recommend them to others looking for a ceilidh band for their event. We look forward to attending one of their public ceilidhs again soon!"

"Thank you for playing at and attending our Big Birthday Ball and for celebrating our 175th Anniversary! The event was great fun and I am delighted to tell you that the event was an overwhelming success and raised over £30,000, which will go towards our healthcare projects in Malawi, Nepal and India – Thank you so much for being there! Everyone was very impressed with the ceilidh on the night and it really added to the evening."

"The Brogues were absolutely brilliant at our wedding at the Oran Mor last week. Couldn’t rate them highly enough and everyone has been singing their praises since. We had many English guests who haven’t ceilidh danced before and the band did such an excellent job of explaining the dances and breaking them into small chunks before building it up to the whole thing. I haven’t stopped watching and laughing at the videos of everyone’s attempts! Communication in advance was also brilliant and all members of the band so friendly. One of our best decisions for the wedding - thank you so much!"

"A2 Barn Dance provided a reel party for our daughter's 18th birthday party - what a night it was! They were very friendly and professional from the booking stage all the way through to the last note. They quickly realised our level of proficiency on the night and adapted their playing accordingly. In addition to being consummate musicians, they are really pleasant to deal with and supportive. I thoroughly recommend them."

"I booked Blag back in November 2018 and everything was very straightforward. Adrian, David and Michael were all very friendly and very professional. They arrived in plenty of time and set up with minimum impact on the rest of the party. They played at my 60th birthday party and played a mixture of ceilidh music to dance to, and other music in between, while we recovered !! Michael is a very good caller and, although we only had one experienced ceilidh dancer in our group, he was able to teach us quite a few dances. I absolutely loved my party and several of my guests also commented on how good the band were, and how much they'd enjoyed the whole evening. The last dance we did was definitely my favourite - lots of couples dancing in a big circle, gradually getting faster and faster !! Thanks again Blag !"

"I couldn't recommend the Brogues enough if you are looking for a band for your event, they were absolutely fantastic. They played at our wedding and were the highlight of the day. I had been worried that we didn't have enough guests to make a Ceilidh 'work' (we only had 27 people), but from the moment I first got in touch with Grace she was really flexible and was able to work out exactly how to get all the guests involved and make the evening really special <3 I can't thank you all enough !"
