Irish Frank
"Frank Doherty and Ben Gunnery turned a family party into a proper ‘hooley’! From folk songs, to ballads, to the Siege of Ennis, they cranked up the volume when we wanted everyone up on the dance floor, but also allowed the fiddle, guitar and tin whistle to play quietly in the background when people wanted to sit & talk.
Two very good Irish musicians; well-played lads ‘go raibh mait agat’!"
James Tattington
"We stumbled across James playing in a pub in East London (and loved his music) and then when we decided to get married we asked him to play. Everybody said how amazing he was. We had lots of communication before re music choices . We couldn’t have asked for more . He helped take the day extra special ."
Band Solo
"Hi Cormac, just transferred the money, thank you for an amazing evening, no doubt will see you soon. Thanks for everything and taking the gig on short notice. Can't believe you do all that as one man. Top notch. Phil & Jan"

Elvin Cole
"These guys are great, all excellent musicians, great mix of music, good humour and banter with the audience.
Seen them a few times now and they never disappoint.
Clive Fletcher, Sunday 1 March 2026"
Rev Ferriday
"Check out the good Reverend on the internet and you’ll see this outfit described as “somewhere between Johnny Cash and Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds” with “similar artists” given as Seasick Steve and Eddie Martin – to which I might add, on the evidence of this lowdown and dirty blues CD, The Rolling Stones (60s version) and maybe vintage Canned Heat. Reverend plays guitar and drums, and he is aided and abetted by Owen Bray on guitar and blues harp, with Neil Sadler also providing bass and drum support.
Ferriday started out playing indie-rock in the 80s and was working in National Debt with Michael Messer (and Bray) around the start of the millennium. This is his second album under his own name and the leader’s vocals are thick and mean, the songs direct and energetic, the sound gritty, raw, and real, with elements of the hard-driving North Mississippi hill country approach in places, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf and more than a tinge of alt-blues. A thoroughly modern blues album in other words, whilst drawing from the deep well of blues tradition, check it out.
