"How much they enjoyed the music Hi Mick, Just a quick thank you for being there last Saturday night. (15th June Maidenhead Golf Club, Shoppenhangers Road, Maidenhead, SL6 2PZ) We’ve had lots of people say how much they enjoyed the music – both the selection of tunes and the excellent way in which you all played. Thanks again, Andy & Sally Wright 19th June 2019"

"The Devil's Tailors were fantastic. They were easy to work with and helped make our wedding event one to remember. They traveled all the way to Arizona from the east coast. I was grateful for their effort and desire to do it at a reasonable price. Everyone loved the bagpipes and the dancing with the fiddle and the piano. They called out the dances while everyone participated and everyone learned how to do them easily. Everyone was anticipating the next number when they could do it again. I definitely recommend using The Devil's Tailors for your next event. If you are thinking about having Scottish dancing at your event, but don't know if it would be fun, I will tell you to book them right now. It is an amazing time. And if you have had Scottish dancing before, The Devil's Tailors will do a wonderful job. "

Jamie, Thanks so much for your kind words! We had such a great experience and the wedding guests were some of the most spirited dancers we've had the pleasure to play for. Peter

"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!"

"Barnbusters were brilliant for my 40th birthday ceildh. they were very accommodating on time and location as well as being very reasonably priced. The band were great and the caller did a lovely job of getting our novice group dancing and having a good time. I highly recommend."

"Highlight of the wedding! The Brogues were such a fantastic part of our wedding. They called the dances in a clear but fun way, which made everyone want to get involved. Their playing was top-notch. We were delighted to have them at our wedding, and would definitely recommend them to others!"

"Amazing Performance and Super Organized! As a wedding planner, I look for only the best to perform at our events because there is so much going on, we want to make sure our vendors are great and Brock and Toni are nothing short but amazing. They were willing to go the extra mile for our couple, super communicative and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. My couple loved them and the guests couldn’t stop talking about how great they were all night! Thank you again Brock and Toni! You truly made the wedding special that more special! Happy and eager to work with you again~"

"Rufus Return Band brilliantly provided the music for our 50th Ceilidh party. The band played a selection of different Ceilidh music and the caller (Brendan) was excellent, engaging our guests and really helping everyone to have a good time! It was so much fun, we had the best evening and felt like we were in safe hands from the moment the band arrived. We had a useful conversation with Brendan prior to the event so that all arrangements were in place. Would highly recommend for any party! Thanks Sarah"

"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. "

"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"

"A few friends and I went to see Gaelforce at the Old Grocers in Pontefract on Friday. What a fantastic talented bunch of musicians these guys are. They delivered punchy folk rock songs, which are mostly their own with a few individual interpretations of some classics throughout the night. Brilliant stuff and highly entertaining. A great venue too, and cannot wait for them to return."

"A lovely, friendly professional band Re-Jigged Ceilidh Band were recommended to me by one of their players for our charity Barn Dance. They were great fun, friendly and very professional. Chris contacted me in advance to enquire about access, parking, and facilities in the hall to make correct arrangements. They arrived 1and 1/2 hours beforehand and set up their equipment efficiently. They looked good on stage with coloured lights along the front and dressed appropriately. Each member is a professional musician and the music was excellent, with balance and volume adjusted perfectly for the hall. They kept 90 people dancing for 3 hours, with an interval . It was a great atmosphere. I hope they will play for us again and I would not hesitate to recommend the Rejigged Ceilidh Band. "

"Fantastic, Fun, Festive & Part of the Family Brock and Toni are gems...they pour their hearts and souls into their performance. They came to my son's Confirmation brunch. They entered through the side gate, so amidst all the talking and laughing, our guests started to hear the glorious sound of bagpipes. He brought everyone to a halt and many to tears! It was such a surprise and it brought such a special feeling to the event. Brock and Toni are wonderful people, and now they are part of the family"
