"Victor of Hampton Pipes & Drums was a pleasure to deal with in preparing for the event. He was the an unforgettable addition to my niece's wedding ceremony and he set a wonderful backdrop to an already magical day. Many thanks to him and his gift of music. I highly recommend Hampton Pipes & Drums for your event. P.S. Friends of mine also hired Hampton Pipes & Drums for a 60th birthday party - also a great success!"

"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. "

"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"

"We had Trio come perform at our wedding Day 2 in Cavan, and it was truly one of the best decisions of our wedding planning. They had all of our guests signing along and dancing to their music in the pub. The set list was absolutely incredible and they even performed an encore because our guests weren’t ready for them to leave! The lads were also absolute gentleman to work with when booking them, super responsive and flexible with our venue changing during the process. We would hire the Trio again in a heartbeat, and cannot recommend them enough. Thanks!"

"Dorothy played at our wedding ceremony at Marylebone Town Hall a few weeks ago and made it extremely special for us.. She was such a dream to work with, so accommodating from start to finish, and so kind. She played all our requested songs so beautifully. Even our guests all commented on how amazing she was! Thank you so much Dorothy <3 I’ll never forget hearing you play Canon in D."

"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"

"We thought the evening went brilliantly, and there has been nothing but positive feedback from everyone who went! We especially thought that Annie (the caller) was fantastic, and we enjoyed the little jam session that you had while we had a breather. We would be keen to book you again for our annual ceilidh, as well as for a Club celebration we are organising in the summer."

"Absolutely stunning performance! All my mom wanted for her funeral was bagpipes. Johnny was so quick to respond and was available in short notice for our special sacred day. He made her send off exactly what she would have wanted!"

"During the planning of my fathers funeral I realized that I didn't call to book someone to play , in a panic that it was too late I found the Hampton Pipes website. Very shortly after I received a called from Victor. Immediately when is spoke to him I knew he was professional and caring that he was the right person for this special job. He did a great job played all the songs that we discussed and really made the day special. I know my Dad was smiling from heaven. Thank you Victor!"

"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. "

"Thrifty Malone opened the Introducing Stage with a much needed hi energy Poguesy set that showed that the artists were up for a good time as much as the audience were hoping to be shown one."
