"Dennis was amazing! Dennis was super responsive and so easy to work with. He showed up early to practice and to the event. He kept us in the loop with what he needed, when he would be there, and any other details. He was an exceptional leader and musician. As a worship leader, he was a strong leader and the rest of the band loved having him around. He connected with the band, the church, and the whole community. His presence felt natural in our space and it felt like he had been there for a while even though it was his first time at our church. We were honored and blessed by him as a musician, as a leader, and as a singer."

"Ben was great, punctual, polite and self sufficient. Adapted to last minute venue changes due to adverse weather conditions, he took it all in his stride and coped with the quirkinesses of the event brilliantly. Great voice, great musician, great price!!!"

"We just wanted to say a big thank you for making our event so successful last Thursday. You were superb and we have had a number of emails from clients and friends complimenting you on how good you are. A few had very croaky voices the next day after singing along with you!! "

"Jamie played at our wedding on 28.12.18 in a small, quaint village church where I grew up. The minute we heard wedding bells my husband and I were in love and couldn’t imagine it not being played at some point during our special day. Not that the song needs it as it sounds original and beautiful on its own, but the acoustics offered by the little church made the whole performance mesmerising and truly impressed our guests who had only positive complimentary comments following the ceremony. Jamie’s music and original style is incredible to watch and listen to. And for my husband and I the perfect accompaniment to us taking our vows."

"Ant was extremely professional from the moment we booked him, meeting up with us beforehand and offering us a wide range of songs to choose from for our set list. The music was fantastic, enjoyed by all and really improved the atmosphere in the evening. We would fully recommend Ant to anyone looking to book live music for a wedding or event."

"I hired Matthew for my 50th birthday party and am so pleased that I did - he was exactly what I was looking for! I selected him on the basis of the quality that I saw on the website, and felt that he was even better in person. Being somewhat fussy, I was apprehensive about finding someone who could meet my needs, but Matthew suggested that we had a meeting before my event and we chatted through my ideas and preferences - as well as the things that I did not want! I came away feeling that he understood me and that we had connected, which was incredibly reassuring, and I was not let down on the night. Matthew is an incredibly talented singer and guitarist - recreating songs in a way that not only reflects the original, but often putting his own twist onto them in a way that keeps them fresh and interesting. His use of the loop pedal was particularly impressive! It was of note that so many of my guests commented on how good he was - they had a great time and really got into the swing of things as he gradually turned up the tempo and got everyone dancing. In doing so, he took requests, interacted with the crowd, showed a good sense of humour and came across as a fun, friendly and approachable guy. He played a wide range of songs, all of which reflected our discussion beforehand, with a great balance between those you might expect at a party and some 'surprises' that may be less common but worked equally well - if not better! I would definitely hire Matthew again, and would recommend him to pretty much anyone: he has a list of nearly 500 songs to choose from, and has a strict policy of not having a 'usual' setlist - instead preferring to engage in a discussion of what you'd like, so would be able to cater for all tastes - even mine! Thanks so much Matthew - you turned a great night into an incredible night!"

Thank you so much for your review Ian - I was genuinely touched! I’m so happy that you enjoyed yourself, especially as I know how anxiety-inducing it can be to organise your own birthday party and feel responsible for everyone’s fun! I loved the atmosphere created by your guests and it was such a pleasure to see you and your friends all dancing together. I hope I can play for you again one day! - Matt

"Bob contributed with a fantastic concert in Fjerritslev Church Center in May 2023. Lots of happy people flocked to Fjerritslev Kirkcenter to hear the happy and well-liked Scotsman. Bob's concert was a lovely concert, for all age groups. Both his own songs but also huge hits from different decades were sung. Even the audience could choose songs. All in all, a Bob Ferguson concert is a wonderful experience, filled with joy, humorous remarks, beautiful singing with audience participation and a wonderful personal experience that you absolutely do not want to miss. 5 out of 5 stars from here. Thank you for a fantastic concert. We very much hope that he comes back to Fjerritslev. A clear recommendation to everyone from us here in Denmark."

"Matt was absolutely incredible at our wedding on Saturday, everyone loved his set and didn't want it to end. Matt kindly offered to learn a new song for our first dance and fortunately it was one he was already familiar with. Having that live performance for our first dance made it that much more special. Thank you for such an amazing evening!"

"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!"
