"School Fundraiser Chichester "Thank you so much for making our Barn Dance on Friday night such a success! Great fun and great exercise!! The music was fantastic, we were all very impressed by your skills and your instruments, especially the funky violin!! We raised approx. £500.00 which will be extremely useful for the School in times of low budgets. We have had requests for another Barn Dance asap , so please may we use you again!! Many thanks to you all Best wishes Alison x"

"Brian was absolutely perfect for our wedding. As my partner and I have totally different tastes, we wanted something that incorporated both of us and Brian was 100% willing to do that - he played jazz piano during our brunch reception, and then transitioned into classic party DJ music for the later portion of the reception. He took all of our requests very well, and was very easy to work with. When some guests made requests that went against our desires (line dances, gross!), Brian thoughtfully checked in with us before playing them, and of course he maintained the dance vibe of the party. He is adaptable, friendly, easy to work with, very good as a musician, professional, and "budget-friendly." I can't recommend him enough. "

"Robert was a fantastic addition to our wedding, and added a unique element that will absolutely be remembered by the attendees. He was a pleasure to work with before the event, played the bagpipes amazingly well (a friend is a series bagpiper and he noted that Robert was very talented), and accommodated music and picture requests thus making sure everyone was thrilled. I would 100% recommend Robert for any bagpipe events! = Andy B."

Thank you, Andy.

"We were lucky enough to have Shindig play on day 2 of our wedding and we couldn't have been happier. Zero stress to deal with, great communication both in the lead up and on the day. The lads are wonderful musicians and a pleasure to deal with. The set list was perfect, a great mix of trad and popular music to keep guests of all ages happy and entertained. The atmosphere, energy and music they brought was amazing. Exactly what we were looking for. Couldn't recommend Shindig enough to anyone getting married - great night guaranteed! Thanks guys for making day 2 so special and helping us dance the night away."

"We couldn’t ask for a better experience for my father in laws funeral. Johnny showed up way in advance in a beautiful setting. We asked for some specific numbers, one of which he’d never played. He mastered the song and played it beautifully as well as the others. He also was very helpful in suggestions for timing. Prelude music while people were arriving was truly an added bonus. This man is also a true gentleman. If you desire a piper for any event, I recommend Johnny."

"Mr. Minor was extremely professional throughout the whole process. He was at the cemetery for my mothers graveside service well before we arrived and played beautifully. He has a large repertoire of songs and is willing to learn songs if he doesn’t know them. Not at all pushy about money and the price was extremely fair. I of course don’t want to have to call him for funeral services anytime soon, but the next time it comes up I will definitely call him first."

"Katie played at Huntsham Court for my son’s wedding reception drinks outside. She brought her beautiful golden Erard harp and created a wonderful atmosphere. The music she played was appropriate and she performed Scottish music including my own arrangements which she’d learnt specially! Thank you Katie."

"I first witnessed The DooLallys years ago at a kind of impromptu kitchen session. I think deeply soulful is the best way to describe their mix of pipes, strings, and song - seamless switches between O'Carolanesque 18th Century rave style to sweet balladeering, along with true and loving versions of traditional Irish music tunes, all layered with a knowing hedge school poetic sensibility.

"Nadia is a very accomplished violinist. She is pleasant and always wanted to ensure she made your event special. It was a pleasure to have her play at my event (10 / 10)"

"We booked Casado for our wedding on the 14th March 2020 and would highly recommend them. Sharon and Martyn were professional, supportive and made our ceremony very special. From the very beginning, Casado were there to support our ideas, offer suggestions and took away a huge element of stress by liaising directly with the venue which was a great help on the lead up to the day. Casado offer great flexibility with regards to what they can offer, for our ceremony we had solo guitar whilst guests were seated and then violin and guitar duet for the ceremony including music whilst signing the register. Casado are excellent musicians with lots of experience and the feedback from our guests was amazing. Thank you for being part of our special day. "
