"Brock and Toni’s bagpipe performance was absolutely wonderful. They have performed for us several times for various events (birthday, funeral, and graduation celebration) and they are so very professional and provide great entertainment and music. More than 5 stars!"

"We just wanted to say thanks so much for playing at our wedding! You guys did a superb job and we loved the Orcadian Strip The Willow idea for our first dance, you were great at calling it and it was brilliant to see all our best friends and family up dancing with us. We all loved your fun mix of music too, you were very accommodating. We have the best memories from our very special day."

"Absolutely fantastic Ceilidh band. They had a break down en route to our wedding and still somehow managed to get there and start on time and pull off a marvellous show. Very accommodating with what tunes and dances we wanted and also with what we wanted to be played later that evening. All in all absolutely delighted."

"Tony and members of The Home Counties Pipes & Drums were the savior of our Bonfire event this year, after being let down by our original pipe band 6 days prior to the event, he was not only able to provide his services, but somehow managed to get another piper and a drummer to join him from the band. They played beautifully in front of our torch-lit procession as it made its way through the village, and really added to …the event. Tony was an absolute star, and continued to keep me informed of what was happening leading up to the event, this contact really put my mind at ease. The playing was superb, and I would not hesitate to highly recommend Tony and the band to anyone who needs a piper or mini Band!"

"Brian Bender was great! We were looking for Irish music for our cocktail hour and a DJ for after dinner. Brian was able to provide both of those things! He put together a three piece Irish band and then he DJed the rest of the night. He was great and everyone danced the night away! We ended up having him stay an extra hour because everyone was having so much fun! Highly recommended "

"Alexander was brilliant! He created the perfect atmosphere for our wedding ceremony. He also learnt one of my favourite pieces of violin music for when I walked down the aisle which was wonderful. He played the violin whilst we walked over to our drinks reception (pied piper style) which was magical and many guests said it was their highlight of the whole day! We would definitely recommend Alexander!"

"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."

"Many thanks for last night... it was bouncing when I left. Great stuff. Many thanks to you all... The music was great, Grace called the dancing very well, getting everyone up dancing. It was very relaxed and at just the right pace allowing those who were completely new to ceilidh dancing to have a fantastic evening. The room was buzzing."

"Rufus Return Band brilliantly provided the music for our 50th Ceilidh party. The band played a selection of different Ceilidh music and the caller (Brendan) was excellent, engaging our guests and really helping everyone to have a good time! It was so much fun, we had the best evening and felt like we were in safe hands from the moment the band arrived. We had a useful conversation with Brendan prior to the event so that all arrangements were in place. Would highly recommend for any party! Thanks Sarah"

"John played for my wedding and made a good wedding into a great wedding with a matter of a few cords from the pipe. He was easy to work with, had a very fair price, and made my family wedding an event that won't be forgotten by my attendees. Highly recommend him if you want to have an excellent show for any event!"

"Really appreciated Brian's thoughtful presence! If you are looking to avoid an obnoxious DJ at your wedding, Brian is your person! Brian was open to the list of music that we compiled. He added when necessary to keep people dancing and he allowed us to make requests! Brian arrived the day of our wedding knowing just what to do for setup and was calm and confident. He was very adaptable to our needs and wishes, he was not just a DJ he set the tone for our wedding!!!"
