"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 "

"We hired Brian Bender of Face the Music DJ and honestly, it could not have been more perfect. He was super attentive to our needs, super laid back, super understanding and extremely amazing in every aspect of the night. Brian met with us immediately and put together an epic song list in not much time. He played piano expertly early on, and even broke out a Trombone later in the evening. He has a great feel for the crowd and djs accordingly to their wants and needs. He was a great announcer and drifted around the room, patiently, as speeches got carried away. So beyond grateful we chose him for our wedding day, it was super special!!!"

"Brock and Toni were absolutely wonderful. Our wedding guests arrived to the heart warming sounds of Brock and Toni playing an amazing Wedding Tune! It was deeply moving and spirit felt by all. Toni's welcoming smile and gentle calming spirit was present on the phone, texts and day of. She helped out on so many levels! What a great way to set the tone for our daughter's wedding. The professionalism, talent and fun personalities of this couple will never be forgotten. We were truly blessed to have found them, and I recommend them wholeheartedly and without reservation.

"We had a great time last night. We had Me & jiggs play at our going away party' and what a night to remember. We had a barbeque in the yard' .. the band came out to play an acoustic set of traditional tunes' ..all the young children gathered in a circle and danced to their hearts content. After about a half hour the band went inside where they had already set up for the performance .it was lively and there was something to suit everyone. The band had their own lights which brought the venue to life. It was unforgetable' we both really enjoyed it as did all of our friends. "

"I can’t thank David & the band enough for their amazing performance at our wedding - they had everyone on the dance floor from beginning to end. From the moment we booked them, they were super attentive right up until the last minute! Thank you 🤍"

"Hi Daíthi, we just wanted to say thank you so much for playing at our wedding! The guests were so impressed and on our next meeting with many of them the first thing they mentioned was 'the guy on the guitar!' You completed our day perfectly and I'd recommend anyone to hire you. P.S Some of the aunts had a particular fascination with you! "

"Hired for our wedding reception. My favorite thing about Brian is that he is an actual musician on top of just DJ. Played the piano live for our cocktail hour then switched to regular music for dinner and dancing. Brian did a great job mixing in the important moments/songs we had requested, while also taking requests from guests on the fly to keep the evening going. Very laid back but also professional, timely etc. Sound and light equipment was professional quality as well. Would certainly recommend. Thank you Brian!"

"Excellent, easy going performance. David is a delightful young man and knew exactly what level to deliver for our party. The audience immediately warmed to him and followed every single song. I would highly recommend David to anyone in search of an exceptional performer."

"This is a great group for a variety of venues. I have seen them in a variety of places and have been a longtime supporter of this group. They play a variety of music and are fun to listen to. Hard to beat the combo of violin, 12 string guitar and voices. They do a lot with just two people!"

"Thank you so so much for your performance on Saturday night, I cannot express to you how much everyone loved it, especially those who had actually never been to a ceilidh before! Honestly fantastic. You were amazing.  Thank you again so very much we all had a fantastic time and managed to raise about £5000 on the night and with my London marathon fundraising, I have raised about £12,000 for Cancer Research.  "
