Reviews of Folk Bands available in Delaware, United States

5/5 from 260 reviews
Photo of Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell "Robert Mitchell was very sensitive to our wish for a softer sound in the church and used the border pipes. He was extremely professional, worked well with the organist and pianist, and provided a lovely Irish touch to my daughter's wedding. Afterwards, he played the bagpipes outside while everyone gathered to greet the new couple with bubbles as they hopped into their limo. In addition, he provided a transition to the reception by playing the bagpipes outside the entrance. We are thankful to Robert and heard many positive comments about him from our guests." Based in Columbia, Maryland John G. Photo of The Devil's Tailors The Devil's Tailors "The Devil's Tailors were fantastic. They were easy to work with and helped make our wedding event one to remember. They traveled all the way to Arizona from the east coast. I was grateful for their effort and desire to do it at a reasonable price. Everyone loved the bagpipes and the dancing with the fiddle and the piano. They called out the dances while everyone participated and everyone learned how to do them easily. Everyone was anticipating the next number when they could do it again. I definitely recommend using The Devil's Tailors for your next event. If you are thinking about having Scottish dancing at your event, but don't know if it would be fun, I will tell you to book them right now. It is an amazing time. And if you have had Scottish dancing before, The Devil's Tailors will do a wonderful job." Based in Alexandria, Virginia Jamie Williams - Wedding Photo of Cold Weather Company Cold Weather Company "I can't say enough wonderful things about Cold Weather Company! Steve was my primary contact and he responded to every email promptly. He answered yes to all requests. The band arrived on time and agreed to stay for a late night acoustic set. They were consummate professionals. The music is why we chose the band, and it was amazing & beautiful to hear live. They were the perfect blend of background music that you really want to stop your conversation to listen to, however their cover of Let It Be was so moving, it silenced the room. We could not have chosen better for our fundraiser, all 150 guests were entertained! We are still hearing rave reviews." Based in New Brunswick, New Jersey Christine P. - Corporate Event Photo of Dunlap and Mabe Dunlap and Mabe "I watched their promo video and thought this band would be a great fit for our community gathering. My main job is in concert audio, and I work with bands every week. I've done high main stream bands and garage bands, Robert Mabe put on a performance that was breath taking amazing. His band's sound was like nothing anyone has heard, our audience was silent with anticipation of the band's next musical note. Before the show was over city officials asked me for their contact info to bring them in for next year's fair concert. This band is worth 10 times what they charge. They are the real deal and will blow away your audience. And yes we're bringing them back." Based in Winchester, Virginia Joshua B. - Concert 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 Alex Maxwell - club (bachelor party) Photo of Spiritus Mundi Crescentis Spiritus Mundi Crescentis "What a show last night! We're still talking about it at breakfast." Based in New Orleans, Louisiana 21st September 2026 Adrienne Shulman
