"Overall we had a very good experience in difficult conditions. The caller handled inexperienced participants, hot weather, and minor technical challenges to deliver an enjoyable experience for all, including child-friendly dances. I recommend this band."

"Over the years Spectra have used Bob Ferguson and his bands Celtic Horizon and Beggars Row to entertain many of our corporate clients. Bob is a natural charmer, has a great voice and delivers many traditional and more contemporary songs with great style. He always has fun on stage, loves to interact with guests and uniquely can always be relied on to read the room so that audiences feel they are part of the experience. We love having Bob play for our clients!"

"Outstanding Music! Ayden and company did a truly phenomenal job of providing the music for our wedding! Ayden helped us right from the get-go to understand and organize the arrangement, the timings, and the logistics for the ceremony music where he and his guitarist accompaniment played gorgeous renditions of "All of Me" and "The Scientist" with additional music just afterward. They then went on to do a fantastic job down at the Reception site where Ayden himself sang a most beautiful "Let it Be Me" for our first dance. He and his band continued to play on through the night, I think for about three hours. Ayden and his band set an intoxicating tone of seemingly endless celtic and contemporary music, done with violin, voice, and strings. It melded like nothing else could with the tranquil night, the cafe lights, and wonderful company. Everything was so memorable and Ayden's music really set that off! He was also easy to work with, accommodating, informative, and well priced. We are forever appreciative and highly recommend him for anyone looking for that perfect, celtic sound for their own wedding. "

"The Annasach Ceilidh Band made the evening of our wedding in The Netherlands unforgettable, motivating Dutch and French feet alike to dance the Scottish steps. Even my 62-year-old aunt was on her feet all evening and remarked at the end that from now on, she only wants Scottish weddings. The band also dealt very professionally with some unforeseen circumstances, rebooking their own flights when their original flights were cancelled, taking a lot of stress away from us. I will happily recommend them for any wedding or party in Scotland or abroad, and look forward to visiting one of their Ceilidhs in Edinburgh when we next find ourselves there!"

"We are a group of corporate professionals. The gathering is an annual conference where all stakeholders of the industry come together. I am glad that Stefano is a professional, they came on time, the band was complete, and came prepared. His team really performed to our hearts content. It was a fun cocktail night because they were there. "

"On behalf of the entire Board of Directors of ISNCC and the ICCN2023 Conference Committee, I want to extend a very warm thank you for making our dinner celebration at Citation a very special event. I have not laughed like that for a long time, and it was fun to see so many of my colleagues from across the globe enjoying themselves. I know that everyone had an absolute blast as well, and no broken ankles ☺ Your presence at our event made it even more special and we are grateful for your patience with us as we learned the steps, or maybe just made them up as we went along with the fun. Once again, thank you for taking the time to make ICCN2023 a success. We truly appreciate your support, and we look forward to connecting with you in the future. Next time I am in Scotland or any of my colleagues are asking for contacts, I will certainly suggest The Brogues."

"`I have had the privilege of hearing the wonderful music Ryan creates for many years. His sound is unique, as are the deep messages that are embedded within his songs. His experiences have crafted him into the musician he has become. As with all true artists, there is profound meaning and intentionally behind all he does and creates. Not only is Ryan a talented musician, but he is also a very generous person. In 2016, my son Jacob was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In 2018, Ryan donated his time and talents to play at a fundraiser for Jacob and our family. The crowd loved Ryan’s powerful music, and the enthusiasm he brought to the room was electrifying. He truly had the audience in the palm of his hand.`"
