"We booked the Brogues Ceilidh Band for our September 2025 wedding after seeing them at a friends wedding and they were brilliant! Really easy to communicate with, more than accommodating with our timings and any special requests. They performed a count down to our cake cutting then right into Grace singing our first dance song which magical. All our guests had a brilliant time, couldn’t recommend them enough - thanks again guys!! Mark and Amie ☺️"

"Oak & Brass gave the party a great atmosphere, with their great voices and fantastic guitar playing. Their song choice for the evening was spot on, with some real classics mixed with the modern, many of which became great sing alongs. I would highly recommend Oak & Brass and would have no hesitation in rebooking him in the future. Thanks again Oak & Brass! "

"OH MY GOD!!! Undoubtedly the BEST ceilidh I've ever been to. The music was world class - and Patricia the caller managed to coordinate 300 people of 48 different nationalities to dance together!! The craic was mighty - my calves are still hurting 3 days later. Thank you so much for making our night magical and giving all our European counterparts such a good impression of Celtic Culture!"

"MATIZ played at a wedding we attended and they were truly amazing. Their music was heartfelt, elegant, and full of life. Every moment was enhanced by their presence. Guests loved them, and the atmosphere they created was unforgettable. We highly recommend them for any special event — simply outstanding!"

"Synthesi, the best band for our events and venues! Peter and the boys play some of the best sounds to Greek music, entertaining over $16,000 people at our festival every year. I only have one go to for live music and it’s Synthesi hands down! "

"Well last night we was at The Crofton Pub, great venue for some live music loads of space to set up your gear etc and lots of fine ales to sample and boy where they good. Anyway were not here to talk about ales but music! The band playing was called Father Jack, I believe to be in relation with Father Ted the program. The music was fantastic, it was Celtic and very lively, they had, guitar, drums and violin/Banjo/12 string ukelele. As we said the music was lively and very entertaining, in between them singing they would play some instrumental numbers. The instrumental numbers where great as they would get faster and faster and get the crowd going. The crowd where thoroughly enjoying themselves. When we got to our table one of the guys was handing out I guess karaoke handouts, these had the chorus to the some of the songs they where singing, I’ve never seen this before but it has to be a brilliant idea, as the evening went on and the beer was flowing, more and more people joined in with singing in the chorus of the songs. It would seem everyone had a great evening with Father Jack, I would definitely recommend them and if you see them advertised go a long and have a sing-a-long with them, you wont regret it!"
