"Wonderful entertainer, a real crowd pleaser December, 3rd, 2023 Bob sang for my mum’s 90th birthday celebration and was a hit with young(er) and old alike. He has a great voice and is also an entertaining story teller. His performance was the highlight of the night for my mum. Highly recommended. "

"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"

"Cold Weather Company was the perfect fit for my awards ceremony event! Not only did we love their unique sound, but they were great throughout the entire booking process. Accommodating to our needs by catering their music to fit the event style incorporating instrumental and vocals. In addition, they were great to work with being very communicative throughout and we really appreciated their interest in our events theme. All in all it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend them. I hope to use them again for future events!"

"We really wanted a folk style band with a saxophone player which believe it or not seems to be harder to find than you would think and then we found you guys and we are so thankful that we chose you! Your performance from start to finish and you were all so lovely to have at our wedding. Huge thanks to Billy for also singing our first dance – it’s a moment we will cherish"

"Grand Slam out of the Park - Annika and Pete, and later Annika and the Earthlings are the best group we have ever heard at any party anytime anywhere, and that is coming from our 100+ guests not just me. Annika’s voice is going to win a Grammy one day. The guitar work was unbelievable. They were incredibly accommodating. If there were six stars to give I’d give them seven!"

"The Brogues were absolutely brilliant at our wedding at the Oran Mor last week. Couldn’t rate them highly enough and everyone has been singing their praises since. We had many English guests who haven’t ceilidh danced before and the band did such an excellent job of explaining the dances and breaking them into small chunks before building it up to the whole thing. I haven’t stopped watching and laughing at the videos of everyone’s attempts! Communication in advance was also brilliant and all members of the band so friendly. One of our best decisions for the wedding - thank you so much!"

Nothing was too much hassle! The lads are highly talented musicians and singer's our guests are still talking about the ceremony! Thanks again to Flix, Cian and Mary Eileen! Emmet & Kelly"
