Reviews of Blues Bands available in Carlow

5/5 from 359 reviews
Photo of Matildejoy Matildejoy "WOW! What an incredible talent Matilde is! She performed for our wedding ceremony and drinks reception and did so with distinction. Not only did she learn new pieces especially for us, but she also handled the venue’s paperwork at short notice. From start to finish, Matilde was an absolute joy to work with—professional, friendly, and always with a smile. Her singing and playing were beautiful, perfectly capturing the atmosphere of each moment. We cannot recommend Matilde enough. Thank you, Matilde, for your wonderful contribution to our special day!" Based in Dublin, Leinster (44 miles from Carlow) Brendan Shiel - Wedding ceremony and reception Photo of Bobby Mc and The Dukes Bobby Mc and The Dukes "Bobby Mc and The Jukes were absolutely fantastic" Based in Dunboyne, Leinster (44 miles from Carlow) Margaret Finlay - Suretank Ltd Photo of Almaz & All That Jazz Almaz & All That Jazz "We booked Almaz for a Charity event held at The Virgin Money Lounge in Manchester. They were extremely professional, arriving on time to set up and tune up. Their set created the perfect atmosphere for the day. They are both exceptionally talented and do a lovely repertoire of both originals and covers. I couldn't rate them any higher or I would have. Thanks again for all your support!" Based in Chester, England, United Kingdom (169 miles from Carlow) Taisie Brennand-Carter - Virgin Money Lounge Photo of Cooper and the Makerfields Cooper and the Makerfields "I have seen Cooper and the Makerfields numerous times now. They are a fantastic well established blues/jazz/roots band. They have completed many local venues, and this summer have played at four festivals. They also have played for a number of charities without taking payment. Lovely guys. They never fail to be asked to play an encore. No venue is too big, or too small. The band adapts to the venues needs." Based in Manchester, England, United Kingdom (199 miles from Carlow) Karen Jones - Festival Photo of Corduroy Moustache Corduroy Moustache "We had booked Oliver and Tommy to play at our wedding, to help fill the time after the ceremony and to entertain our guests. Our day was planned to be a relaxed, chilled day and Corduroy Moustache certainly helped to create exactly that for us. Music was wonderful, exactly what we had asked for and we’ve had plenty of comments from guests saying just how fab they thought the music was. We couldn’t have asked for anything better to compliment our day. Would definitely highly recommend!" Based in Manchester, England, United Kingdom (199 miles from Carlow) Nicola Longshaw - Wedding Drinks Reception Photo of Kate Stevens - Live Lounge Kate Stevens - Live Lounge "Kate Stevens has a beautiful and mellifluous voice that was pitch perfect at the the wedding. Not only that Kate is a gorgeous person and looks stunning! Kate was very conscientious in the build up to the event and went out of her way to ensure that the day went smoothly ,a very professional performer. The singing was so good that both the bride and groom were reduced to tears... can't say better than that. I would recommend Kate Stevens to anyone and would be happy to be contacted for a reference." Based in Andover, England, United Kingdom (257 miles from Carlow) Tim Belson - Wedding
