Review Centre: Folk Bands

"Simply the best. As I said many times, we were not looking for a wedding band in Ireland, we wanted an Irish Band that does weddings. Well we found them. In March of 2024 my wife and I were in Ireland to preview my daughter's wedding venue in Co. Monaghan at Castle Leslie. We did not have a band yet and happened into Temple Bar and fortunately for us Sparky was playing with an awesome fiddle player and we were hooked. Quick conversation and some planning with Gav and they were booked. They were incredibly accommodating and helped coordinate all of the music for the day including ceremony, Cocktail 2 Hours(!), Shindig for the evening and even a DJ inserted in the middle. They also worked with me and my band to do some of the first dances etc. for my daughter and our families. As a musician myself, I know good when I see it and these guys were awesome! I can't wait to play with them again!"

"My wife and I booked The Brogues for our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic! Grace was so helpful from the moment we contacted them to the moment they finished (as were the other band members). They created such an atmosphere that even people that don't normally dance couldn't help but join in. Nothing was any trouble to them and we cannot thank them all enough. Our guests are still raving about them many weeks after the wedding. Highly recommend."

"Blag played for our office Christmas party and were brilliant. Their music was great and the caller was very charismatic getting everyone involved in the dancing. They were really easy to book and very flexible and accommodating with our requirements. We had great feedback from everyone at the party and I'd really recommend this lovely, friendly band."

"Mi pareja y yo contratamos a Lucille bluez para nuestra boda sin pensarlo después de escuchar una de sus actuaciones en Instagram, y fue un acierto absoluto. En directo suenan aún mejor que en los vídeos, la gente estuvo encantada, todo el mundo nos felicitó por la música, y cantaron temas universales conocidos por todos. Estoy deseando tener otro evento para poder contratarlos porque se me hizo cortísimo, ¡Y eso que estuvieron más de dos horas con nosotros! "

"“We were absolutely delighted with Beskydy’s commitment, talent, and performance. They learned a piece specifically for my daughter’s wedding march, and their repertoire perfectly matched our guest list for a Jewish wedding which was also attended by family from the Balkans” - 10/10"

"Last weekend i met the group at the Christmas Party of an Alzheimer care home. i was fascinated by the bright positive energy they spread. Musically there was everything from gentle soulful to vibrant upbeat, acoustic and yet virtuosic and strong - at the end the whole ward was singing and dancing along to Balkan music..."

"We couldn’t recommend the House Devils more. They honestly made our evening so great and our guests had an absolute blast because of them. The atmosphere they created was second to none and we loved every second. Thank you"

"The last couple of years we had the pleasure of having the Scottish musician Bob Ferguson on stage. He is a great performer. With Bob in the house, you're sure of having an entertaining afternoon or evening. And the music he's playing is diverse. Scottish and Irish folk, but also songs made by himself. We knew Bob already from concerts he played in our folkclub with Beggars Row and Celtic Hearts. But his solo concerts are also from high quality. So whenever you have the chance to get him on stage in your folkclub, bar or festival.....?! Book this guy! "
