"Thank you for the most romantic and Scottish first dance and for your ceilidh. Tricia was great when calling the dances and explaining us what to do. We all had lots of fun. You also managed to make my dad dance, who ususally never does! I was truly amazed to see him on the dance floor. With your wonderful music you made the evening even more special and you created wonderful memories that we will bring forever in our hearts. I truly wish to meet you again and dance at the rythm of your wonderful Scottish music. I have purchased your disc in ITunes as I am in love with your songs! "

"I've just want to say what a fantastic evening we had dancing at the Ceilidh. We were visiting Edinburgh for a special birthday on Burns night as I'd always wanted to celebrate it in Scotland. Though our kids / young adults (13 & 16) were the youngest there, we were all warmly welcomed. The music was great, the calling helped us get to grips with the dances, and the atmosphere was fantastic. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, thank you! Thanks again for an amazing night."

"I booked Sandra & Paul to play at my dad's party at the Cherry Tree pub in Haddenham. They have the habit of making audiences just jump out of their seat and start clapping their hands and stamping their feet. Their acoustic skills are magical and profound. It was a great party. Read less"

"Michael played the bagpipes at our wedding and was absolutely fantastic. He welcomed our guests with beautiful music as they arrived at the church and piped us out at the end of the ceremony — such a special touch. From the start, he was so friendly, laid-back, and easy to deal with, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Our guests loved his playing, and so did we — it added something really memorable to the day. Highly recommend!"

"A huge thank you Oak & Brass, for keeping us entertained all evening with your brilliant varied repertoire and friendly banter. Also, thanks very much for the songs you improvised for us towards the end of a great evening. Oak & Brass are very talented singers/guitarists, and able to adapt to so many different styles of song, giving some great entertainment. I would highly recommend them for all types of event and would happily have them play again for us some time in the future. Thanks Oak & Brass!"

"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."

"We booked Blag for our Golden Wedding. They were excellent. They played soft music whilst we were eating then organised the barn dancing. All our guests were very impressed and, I understand, several asked for their contact details."

"The Brogues were excellent and very accomodating to our wedding. Their sound is amazing and all the guests loved the atmosphere they helped create. From our end as organisers they were responsive and easy to work with. Can 100% recommend without any issue."

"I have seen Tatcho Drom several times now. The first time was a few years ago in the Percival Room, South Bank, London. They were phenomenal. The atmosphere, whipped up by the whole band and in particular by Gundula Gruen through her virtuoso violin playing and her repartee with the audience, was pulsating. I think some of the audience were from the Balkans and they were going wild. But most of us cold-blooded Englishmen and woman were up on our feet as well. If you get the chance to see this lot performing live, grab it. I love going to their shows."

"I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Ixeis Afixeis perform, and I can confidently say they deliver an outstanding show every time. The band’s professional approach and incredible musicianship, especially the bouzouki solos, leave a lasting impression. Whether it’s a wedding, festival, or private event, Ixeis Afixeis creates a festive and authentic Greek atmosphere. Based in Thessaloniki, they are a must-see for anyone wanting to experience the heart of Greek music!"

"101 My partner and I hired Lucille bluez for our wedding immediately after listening one of their performances on Instagram, and it was an absolute success. Live they sound even better than in the videos, the people were delighted, everyone congratulated us on the music, and they sang universal songs known to everyone. I'm looking forward to having another event so I can hire them because it seemed very short, and they spent more than two hours with us!"

"We honestly can’t praise the band enough! Our wedding day was amazing with great music to dance to all day and we had so many compliments on the music. We had them booked all day (from ceremony to end of day) and it was worth every penny! We were so grateful they learnt the songs for us to walk down the aisle too and our first dance. These covers were beautiful and we honestly couldn’t fault them! Thank you so much for Helping make our wedding day so enjoyable! "
