Review Centre: Barn Dance Bands

"Thank you and your team for a truly excellent evening on Saturday at South Warnborough. We had a full house and everyone seemed to be fully engaged in the event. We certainly didn’t have any sliding away early unless they had to! Please thank the team for all their support, and in particular please pass on my personal thanks again to Alistair for composing his hornpipe, “Old Navigator’s Measure”, especially for me. We would like to get our booking in for a similar Saturday next year, so please can you see if you can fit us in? Thank you again for a wonderful evening."

"The band were excellent, thank you. Everyone had a blast, and they loved the dancing. The band and your caller made the whole thing very easy and fun, especially for beginners, and I know quite a few people who were really taken with you. Thanks again!"

"We had such good feedback about your performance! Everyone that came had a great time and that’s definitely down to the superb music and also the very well-explained and inclusive calling. I honestly would not have believed that the majority of people dancing were new to ceilidh dancing from watching them, they all took to it really fast. We’d love it if you’d like to play again as the band was definitely the key to the success of the night. Also let me know if you want a glowing quote for your website or anything, very happy to oblige!"

" Rejigged were hired to play at my 50th birthday party. After reading many positive reviews from their website, I was really looking forward to an entertaining evening of music, dance and laughter with my friends and family. They didn’t disappoint! Chris liaised on behalf of the band and kept regular contact, before the event, ensuring he knew exactly how I wanted the evening to pan out. Booking and payment was simple and advice offered to maximise the success of the evening. We had booked the 5 piece Cailidh band, including the caller. The musicians were highly skilled professionals and their choice of music was perfect for the evening. The caller was entertaining and very patient with us dancers, who joined in enthusiastically, if not skilfully! (Let’s face it, going wrong in the dance is half of the fun!) The band played non-stop for one and a half hours, stopped for half an hour for refreshments and then continued for a further hour. It was wonderful to see the enjoyment on everyone’s faces and the atmosphere was full of fun and laughter. The band really made my special birthday an event to remember: they were excellent! If a Ceilidh band is something you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to book Rejigged; you won’t be disappointed, I promise. "

"I had the best time with the Barn Buskers celebrating my 50th birthday. From the minute I booked them to the moment they had to leave they were brilliant. The youngest guest was 2, the oldest was 85 and everybody said what a fantastic time they had. Knees hurt but cheeks hurt more from all the smiling and laughing. The caller did extraordinarily well keeping us all together. Note to self.....must learn left from right 😂😂 If you are looking for some talented musicians with a flare to keep the party going, at a pace that suits your needs, then look no further. I believe a friend has booked them for their wedding next year, and I for one can't wait to do it all again 🩷 Huge thank you to Judy and co. Truly a most memorable day 🩷🥳"

"Clusterfolk played at my wedding last weekend and were absolutely amazing. They were the perfect backdrop to my wedding reception and played a mix of instrumentals and vocals. We received many compliments regarding the music and quality, and the guys are truly lovely and easy to work with. We wouldn’t hesitate to book them again "

"The Hoedown Band were quite simply awesome!! We had a triple 50th Birthday at the local hall ... We had 146 people who all had the best night ever so they say, thanks in no small part to Dawn and the band. The musicianship was excellent and Dawn’s calls were clear and easy to follow and she was roving around and leading each group until we got it and went full steam ahead with the band ripping into it. I cannot recommend this band enough. They exceeded our expectations and once again made our party what it was. Thank you guys and girls!"

"We had Annasach Ceilidh Band play for our daughters wedding at the Ptarmigan, Loch Insh. All of the guests thought the band were fantastic, they played mood music as guests arrived followed by a full on Ceilidh. The instrumentalist were amazing and the caller was friendly, funny and ensured we had a wonderful ceilidh. "

"Dear Dave, Mike and Gerry Thank you so much again for playing at our wedding last month. All our guests are still mentioning how awesome the music/entertainment was, particularly as so many of them had never experienced a ceilidh before. They sincerely loved it. (Despite being a bit exhausted by the end of the night.) I have attached some photos from the wedding, that I thought you might like to use on your website/facebook page. Although if possible, when showing the photos please can I ask that you mention our photographer Lee Ovenden of Sophotogenic Wedding Photography as the one who made them. (His logo fell off when I downloaded the photos.) Hope you have a good season and get to host many more lovely ceilidhs . Thank you again Best Wishes Yun and Markus "

"This group of talented musicians played at the Nampa Eagles on 11th Ave tonight. They played to a good crowd, and we had so much fun dancing to such great music! Go see them, better yet, go out dancing and have a night to remember!"

"School Fundraiser Chichester "Thank you so much for making our Barn Dance on Friday night such a success! Great fun and great exercise!! The music was fantastic, we were all very impressed by your skills and your instruments, especially the funky violin!! We raised approx. £500.00 which will be extremely useful for the School in times of low budgets. We have had requests for another Barn Dance asap , so please may we use you again!! Many thanks to you all Best wishes Alison x"
