Hoedown Band
"We hired the Hoedown Band for our Xmas party and they were fantastic. They were very professional, neatly presented and they sounded great on the night. We were a small crowd but their lead singer [caller] Dawn was very interactive and educational with her dance moves. The band knew their instruments and songs very well and I would certainly recommend them."
Annasach Ceilidh Band
"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!"
The Country Rocks Band
"The Country Rocks band were insane! They had everyone up on the dancefloor all night, absolutely loved their set and they definitely made our wedding! The highlight of the evening for sure, thanks to Chloe and the band!"
Point Five Ceilidh Band
"A really great night, Point 5 were so accommodating, fun and professional. Also really great communication before the ceilidh, together meant my daughter had a party to remember."
Whiskey & Shades Country Band
"Whiskey & Shades were fantastic at the Little Country Fest! Great country vibes, brilliant music, and an amazing atmosphere. They really got the crowd going and made it a memorable festival. Definitely a band worth seeing live!"
