"We booked a Ceilidh with the band last year. Had to postpone but they were good with that. The party could not have gone better. Everyone dancing from the first dance. The band responded well and the calling was good as there were a number who had not been to a Ceilidh before. Organisation and communication was good. Thoroughly pleased with the how everything went."

"Honestly - look no further, these are they guys you are looking for. I booked Blag to play in the local village hall for my birthday party. They were excellent musicians and lovely guys - polite, friendly and very professional. Their repertoire included many genres of music and they were able to adapt the music on the night to suit the room. The first set was an eclectic mix of music - all brilliantly played. The ceilidh in the second set was really fun, with Michael (very patiently) teaching us the moves. Everyone has been commenting on how fantastic they were ever since the party. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you for a really wonderful and memorable evening."

"Hi Brendan, We just wanted to thank the band for a fantastic barn dance yesterday. We all had an amazing time doing the dances and the dancefloor was never empty! It all went really smoothly and we are really grateful. Sorry you weren’t able to be there but I was hoping you could pass our thanks along to the band members. Thank you for all your communication and putting our minds to ease. "

"Highlight of the wedding! The Brogues were such a fantastic part of our wedding. They called the dances in a clear but fun way, which made everyone want to get involved. Their playing was top-notch. We were delighted to have them at our wedding, and would definitely recommend them to others!"

"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!"

"This year we managed to raise £4,456 for our two charities (Shipston Home Nursing and the Air Ambulance), which I think is a record. I wanted first to thank you for your wonderful music. Having such a brilliant band is integral to the success of the Tartan Fling and we’re very grateful to you. We would, of course, really love it if you would come back and play for us again next year."

"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 !"

"Toni and Brock were such a highlight of our event! They’re incredibly personable, sweet, and genuinely endearing. Their bagpipe performance brought a special energy that pulled the community together and added a beautiful cultural touch. They truly made our event ten times better. They were a complete joy to work with and I can’t recommend them enough! -CB"

"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."

"Blag were really exactly what we were looking for! I don't live in London so I was nervous about choosing a band I hadn't heard play, but they sounded great online, and I spoke to Michael over the phone and on email about the type of party we were having and the music we wanted. Most importantly they played brilliantly on the night, everyone was up out their seats for a good knees up and we were guided round the dances that we didn't know. All the guests were happy. Would definitely recommend!"
