Harbour City
"CAMIC had the great pleasure of having Harbour City perform at our annual conference. Not only was the band fantastic, but they played a variety of tunes, from ones themed to the East Coast to familiar tunes from the past. Our guests happily danced until the last set was played"
Catherine Little Cello
"My daughter and I attended your concert. It would be an hounour to have you visit our town (for your next concert). Thanks for giving my daughter and myself a wonderful memory."
Foot Stompin' Ceilidh Band
"The band were wonderful and so accommodating with our requests for the night which helped to make it just that little bit more special. So many of our guests commented on the fantastic music!"
Ted Christopher
"Brilliant night’s entertainment. Ted knows how to play to the crowd and can vary his sets based on who’s there and the crowds response."
Bob Ferguson Songwriter
"We all had an amazing night, all the sailors loved your performance and it really made a massive difference to the night, it really brightened up the spirits of everyone and made it a night to remember, extremely worth it and a very fair price. Keep in touch bob."
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!"
