Review Centre: Ceilidh Bands

"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."

"Amazing Performance and Super Organized! As a wedding planner, I look for only the best to perform at our events because there is so much going on, we want to make sure our vendors are great and Brock and Toni are nothing short but amazing. They were willing to go the extra mile for our couple, super communicative and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. My couple loved them and the guests couldn’t stop talking about how great they were all night! Thank you again Brock and Toni! You truly made the wedding special that more special! Happy and eager to work with you again~"

"On Saturday 16 September 2023, we celebrated our 116th birthday. We had heard good things about Bob Ferguson from others, so we decided to have him round off a great day with 3 hours of superb entertainment. It was an unforgettable evening, Bob really manages to hit his audience, and the atmosphere was instantly top notch. Bob got everyone involved, and there was dancing and singing along to the big gold medal. And the best recommendation you can get is that we have hired Bob Ferguson again for a good and pleasant day/evening in March 2024."

"We just wanted to write a short thank you for playing at our wedding. The ceilidh was so much fun and a great success with all our guests. It was nice to see so many people of different ages and stages enjoy themselves together. The ceilidh caller did a great job in directing the moves and the musicians did a great job in playing such beautiful music!! To anyone considering hiring Cats Claw Ceilidh band for your next event- go for it! You won’t regret it! "

Everyone had a ball thanks in no small part to the brilliant atmosphere you guys created. Thanks again, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend you, feel free to put anyone our way who'd like to know what you're like! Sincerely hope to see you again in the future. Warm regards, Eileen & Peter"

"The Hoedown Band were quite simply awesome!! We had a triple 50th Birthday at the local hall ... We had 146 people who all had the best night ever so they say, thanks in no small part to Dawn and the band. The musicianship was excellent and Dawn’s calls were clear and easy to follow and she was roving around and leading each group until we got it and went full steam ahead with the band ripping into it. I cannot recommend this band enough. They exceeded our expectations and once again made our party what it was. Thank you guys and girls!"

"Wow wow wow. Now that we’ve just about recovered Liam and I wanted to say massive thank you to you and the boys. You gave us the absolute night of our lives. Both of us, and so so many of our guests think you guys are the best wedding band we’ve ever seen. You were absolutely stunning in every sense of the word. We had an absolute ball at the ceilidh and every single song for the dj set was a banger. All of our friends were raving about you. I’ve been asked at least ten times for your name over the last two days! It was fantastic. Liam and I are so grateful. Thank you so very much, it was the best night of both of our lives!"

"I was dubious booking before I had heard them properly but was THRILLED with their performance. They made the evening, they were friendly, lively, play every type of music and a proper treat. I would highly recommend them and now have to find an excuse for another party to get them back a second time! Thank you Blag! "

"The band just came in and started getting set up with no hassle during a busy part of the evening for the wedding party, which was really helpful... The ceilidh caller was really enthusiastic and clear in his instructions (which was great for those new to the dance!)... You learned our song for our first dance, which meant a lot to us, sounded great, and set up the dancing part of the night really well!"

"I had the privilege of experiencing the beautiful performance of Celtic Bagpipe Team at my close friend's father in laws wake, and I cannot express how profoundly moving it was. Their performance brought a sense of dignity, honor and reverence to the occasion, honoring my friend's memory in a way that words cannot capture. Their music stirred emotions deep within me, and I am forever grateful for the comfort it provided during such a difficult time. The Celtic Bagpipe Team's performance was truly five stars, even more, I highly recommend them for any occasion where music can heal the soul. Thanks Toni you were incredibly helpful~"

"Annasach played for our wedding in June 2018 near Livingston, where most of the guests were not regular ceilidh goers but almost all got up to give it a go! Thanks to the team for the rousing tunes and good calling, which made even the novices feel that they could join in the fun. We loved Auld Lang Syne at the end too - a brilliant end to our special day. Annasach were easy to deal with and professional from the beginning, we would definitely recommend them to others looking for a ceilidh band for their event. We look forward to attending one of their public ceilidhs again soon!"

"Their ability, at short notice, to turn up and turn in a stonking evening of fine music, laced with wit, anecdotes and reminiscences. Recommended to anyone who enjoys fine trad music played with enthusiasm and enjoyment. As performed at the Rafters club, Wath, on 14th December"

"Great Review from the Fabulous Derek Burke ??? Andrew Coates Music has been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. It was my first time working with Andrew and his Team and they were just fantastic. Everything they had arranged was exactly as they said it would be and better. Also a huge thanks to Patricia and Ma Nolan’s. A 5 out for 5 star rating from me all around ?"
