5/5 from 915 reviews
Photo of Pure Blarney Pure Blarney "Just a note from myself though, we knew the band was great and would go down amazingly with our guests - but we were not prepared for how well they were received!! So many compliments about you guys! Review for you to use: We had pure blarney play at our wedding and what an experience!! They were absolutely outstanding. The dance floor was full the entire time - you literally couldn’t stop for a break because every song they played was phenomenal. They were so interactive with the guests and created the most amazing atmosphere. They genuinely have such a talent for what then do - their instruments, their singing and their ability to sustain such high energy. Absolutely faultless!" Based in Ballymena, Northern Ireland (23 miles from Belfast) Barry Taggart - Wedding Photo of M50 The Band M50 The Band "Saw them in Dolans. Limerick , on May 1st 2026. They are excellent and interactive! They created a great atmosphere!" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland (88 miles from Belfast) 2nd May 2026 Paul O'Connor Photo of Morning Glory Morning Glory "Absolutely brilliant band, Paul has liams vocals, presence, swagger, and attitude, down to perfection, The best oasis tribute band by a country mile,🎸🎤🎼" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland (88 miles from Belfast) Paul bergin - Recent morning glory performance, Joe lee’s co. Offaly Photo of Everlong Echoes Everlong Echoes "This Foo Fighters cover band nailed it! From the first chord to the final encore, the energy was off the charts. Spot-on vocals, killer guitar work, and dead on rhythm section. The crowd was on fire. If you’re a Foos fan, this is the closest you’ll get to the real thing. Can’t wait for the next gig!" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland (88 miles from Belfast) Shane Photo of Vintage Boombox Vintage Boombox "Hey I’m a stripper and we had you guys play at my 68 birthday, just wanna know where you found the nerve to upstage me on day I’ve dreamed since I was a boy, hope I never encounter you again or it will be on-site 💜" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland (88 miles from Belfast) Oisin Maher - Stripper party Photo of The Gav Carpenter Band The Gav Carpenter Band "As a long-time Folkpunk, Celtic Punk, Irish Folk Punk fan, I found the line up perfect. It started with the Gavin Carpenter Duo, two men, alone on the big stage. Vocals, guitar and a cajon, that was all to give the audience a taste for the rest of the evening. Personally, I really enjoyed this hour of folk music and I was certainly not alone. The people sang along and clapped along, Gavin Carpenter took the audience to the Emerald Isle musically with his discreet, not at all obtrusive manner and looked very good in his fine suit."
