Photo of Craigievar Ceilidh Band Craigievar Ceilidh Band "Thank you for another fantastic party last night. You were all brilliant and really embraced the spirit of the event which really puts the icing on the proverbial cake. Please can we book you for 2024?!" Based in Reading, England (60 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Rachael Thomson - Burns Night Reeling Party Photo of Country Roads Duo Country Roads Duo "The country roads duo at our wedding were absolutely amazing! We can’t say enough about how great they were. They were incredibly friendly, highly professional, and sounded absolutely phenomenal. They truly made our special day unforgettable. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐" Based in Nantwich, England (70 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) 1st June 2026 Lisa & Chris - Wedding Photo of Cat's Claw Ceilidh Band Cat's Claw Ceilidh Band "Wow, what a wonderful evening! Last Friday night was so much fun and it was such a real pleasure to collaborate with you all at Cat's Claw. It was a magical night and it was lovely to see the two worlds of music come together so successfully. Our musicians from the BBC National Orchestra of Wales very much enjoyed working with you all and it was great to hear that you too all had a great time. I also think that from the audience's reaction that everyone who was present also very much enjoyed the evening. In particular, my Mum absolutely LOVED the evening and was blown away by hearing all of the music that she loves so much played so brilliantly! Sincere thanks for your invaluable contribution to such a special evening celebrating St David's Day." Based in Cardiff, Wales (80 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Suzanne; BBC orchestra organiser - St David's Day Concert, BBC National Orchestra of Wales; March 2019 Photo of Blag Blag "Absolutely brilliant! Made the entire night and brought so much life to the party. Played a mixture of upbeat songs and irish jigs and accommodated the music we wanted for the party and accommodated all ages. So excited to book them again. The guests are still mentionioning them a whole week after our event. Most friendly and professional band you could hire. If you're looking for a band to accommodate 18+ look no further, the whole place was dancing all night. Very talented guys. Thank you so much for making our party that much better." Based in London, England (82 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Ryan McHale - 50th Birthday garden party Photo of Annasach Ceilidh Band 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!" Based in Edinburgh, Scotland (267 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Barbara - Wedding Photo of Kirsten Kirk and the Dirty Work Kirsten Kirk and the Dirty Work "Kirsten Kirk and the Dirty work played my bachelor part and they were awesome" Based in Boston, Massachusetts, United States (3,193 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Alex Maxwell - club (bachelor party)
