"Bob Ferguson concert, 11. Sept. 2019 Our association organizes, among other things, traditional concerts, especially regional music of Low German culture. Scottish and Celtic music corresponds to this program much. Bob Ferguson gave us with his music insights and impressions into the everyday life of Scottish life. In his ballads, he sang about love, wanderlust, the landscape and the sea. He entertained the audience wonderfully, walked through the rows of spectators and encouraged everyone to sing along. The audience felt transported to the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland and had this beautiful landscape in mind. We thank him for this great concert and we look forward to seeing him again in autumn 2020. "

"The Musical Duo 'Good To Go' are truly good to go for all of your live music needs; be it a wedding, birthday, retirement party, or music for your winery or pub as well! The versatility of Mike and Susanne together is fit for any scenario.Between the accordion, the guitar, and the harmonies, they do jazz, classic rock, modern hits and more. Catch them soon at one of their many live performances near you!" • Ratin:   *****   • Reviewer: Alex C • Event Date: June 30th, 2023 • Services Provided: Cover Band "

"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!"

"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! "

"We just wanted to say a massive thank you for getting the party started. We had so many people say how much they enjoyed the ceilidh, lots who have never done it or even heard of it before and have now started to look for them closer to home! It made the wedding the most amount of fun and I felt like I actually saw all our guests even if it was for 30 seconds as they swung me round. My favourite memory was the cheer when everyone swapped partners and greeted someone new....it made me cry happy tears. Thank you a thousand times for making it the best day of our lives! "

"I would totally recommend Wraggle Taggle Wraggle Taggle were professional, very accommodating, and went down a treat (9th February 2019 Saturday The King's Royal Hussars Officers' Mess, Tidworth Garrison, Wiltshire, SP9 7BB). They offered both amplified and non-amplified music and using their amplifiers were able to hold a full room of 90 loud and merry party goers. I would totally recommend Wraggle Taggle for any party or event and if the theme lent itself, I would, without doubt, use them again Best wishes Seb Teuber, The King's Royal Hussars 22nd February 2019"

"Fantastic band. All our guests loved them and their music. Very charismatic and friendly. Great choice for a wedding band, they had everyone up and dancing. They arrived early and set up easily, very nice guys and easy to chat to. Played our choice of a first dance song which they played very well. We will be watching out for them playing elsewhere and we would highly recommend them to anyone wanting some great live music."

"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! "

"What an excellent match! We first saw Gary play at one of our favourite gourmet restaurants and I immediately fell in love with his guitar playing. I originally contacted Gary through Facebook asking if he played at weddings. As it turned out weddings are a common venue for him and he was the perfect fit for our wedding. He played during the cocktail hour as well as the receiving line. His music consisted of solo classical style guitar with no vocals. But the way his finger style arrangements sound, it is almost like you can hear the lyrics in you head. He was very well received by our guests and my cousin wants to have him play at her wedding while she walks down the isle. He was the complete package deal punctual and very professional with a seemingly endless repertoire. Which was excellent because he played all my requests and some of the best solo Beatles renditions I have ever heard. I couldn’t have been happier with him and now whenever I hear the Beatles “In My Life” I think of my wedding and that perfect day. Thank you Gary!"

"We can’t thank you enough for helping to make the whole weekend so special, from Friday night outside the pub, to the beautiful songs in the quarry during the ceremony, to the fantastic performance in the tipi! Your energy and enjoyment was infectious and you went way beyond what we had requested with the numerous encores! We can’t tell you how many of our guests have commented how good you were and how they had never seen a band like you in terms of musicianship and the way you engaged. We will be sure to spread the word, but would also like to leave you some proper feedback – please let us know if there is somewhere particular you would prefer us to do that. We hope your pneumonia has cleared up or you are at least on the road to full recovery. Please pass on our gratitude to Matteo, Ollie and Kelpie. Very best wishes"
