"Was great to meet you all. Was definitely one of David's favourite nights since we moved in and have never seen the place so packed! Was a pleasure to have you there and heard no end of positive comments and I can't wait to see you again."

"I just wanted to email you to say thanks! Everyone loved the ceilidh. The explanation at the beginning of each dance were great and of good help for the guests who never had one before. It was also very easy to get in touch with you and to get everything organise. Graeme and I would happily recommend you to anyone. Thanks again for helping making that day even more special!"

"From the very first note, Murphy's Lore Ceilidh had us all tapping our toes, clapping our hands, and moving our legs with joy – the music filled the barn and the atmosphere was electric. Thank you to the fantastic musicians who gave us not just songs, but memories to treasure. "

"Hi Gordon, We can't begin to thank you and the band enough for making Friday such a special evening. Helen was really looking forward to dancing with all her friends and the music you played certainly made people want to get up and join in, even oldies like me. Thank you also for managing the ceilidh dancing so well in a very restricted amount of space. We had expected just a few people to take part but were overwhelmed by the numbers and the enthusiasm. Helen had forewarned a number of her friends about the dances we were having so a few had taken advantage of the YouTube tutorials available but the success was all down to yourself. We both realised that you played for much longer than initially envisaged so thank you very much for that. Best wishes!"

"The Rejigged Ceilidh Band played for our wedding a couple of weeks ago at High Rocks and they were absolutely wonderful! The talented band performed for us an incredible Scottish Ceilidh and dressed accordingly! The music was superb and the caller made the dance easy for all our wedding guests to follow! We even received a congratulations on our wedding card from the band! Their communication was superb, the music remarkable and we cannot recommend them more highly! Thank you Rejigged!"

"The Tuning Forks consistently delivers live performances characterised by superb musicianship and brilliant arrangements. Their shows offer an immersive experience that draws the audience into their world. The band masterfully explores their multicultural identity, beautifully extending traditional music into the present and future. With sets that are energetic and engaging, they connect with the crowd to create a warm, conversational atmosphere. From their perfectly balanced sound to their captivating storytelling, their gigs are a truly excellent musical experience."

"Just wanted to say that we thought you were all fantastic. The wedding had been such fun all day, followed by wonderful food, and you certainly kept up the high energy feel. The fact that so many people were up to dance, most of whom had never been to a Ceilidh before, was testimony to your good music and the lively but relaxed and welcoming atmosphere you created. So thanks again and we hope you enjoyed it too. You were even better than we hoped you would be!"

" I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Ruby! Ruby came to perform for us at Fountains Care Home for our VE Day celebrations and she filled our home with so much joy and fun. It was our residents first time hearing live music since last year and everyone had a wonderful time singing and dancing along too.It was a perfect way to celebrate VE Day & we can’t wait to have Ruby back with us at Fountains!"

"Just a short email to say many thanks for the music and dancing on Saturday at Childerley. I hope you could tell we all had a great time - were we any less competent than most people at the dancing?? As far as I know, only one person fell over, and we have to blame too much champagne for that. The whole event went fantastically well, and your part in it was much appreciated. Should the opportunity arise, we will book your group again, and recommend you if we know of anyone else having a “do” in your area. A lot of fun was had by both dancers and spectators. "

"BEST BAND EVER!! Lilac and her 6pc funk band played at our wedding in Summer 2021, and Rem DJ'd. Both sets were absolutely fantastic! In the build up to the wedding, Lilac and Rem were incredibly helpful in guiding us through our playlist, identifying crowd pleasers and song collections which worked incredibly well together. They were both full of ideas and suggestions and left no stone unturned in their preparations! Planning our evening set with them was a real giggle! They were very clear in outlining their requirements on the day, and recommending what timings would work well. They were also incredibly understanding, cooperative, and willing to be flexible as we waited to plan our wedding around COVID. On the day, Lilac and the team were full of energy and this reverberated around the room, creating a truly special atmosphere! Lilac has an amazing, soulful voice and so much stage presence! The saxophonist was also outstanding!! They kept the dance floor filled all evening and full of noise as we all sang along. Lilac and the team's set was incredible, and they kept going beyond the two 45 min slots to all of our delight! Rem's DJ set to conclude the evening was incredible! He struck a really great balance between old school classics and more modern, higher tempo tunes. We'll remember excitedly dancing along to Avici and Craig David, and finishing off with a sing along to Wonderwall, Sweet Caroline and Angels, with all our best friends surrounding us, for the rest of our lives! Thank you so much for a massive contribution towards making our wedding the best day of our lives!"

"Kip and his band are brilliant, this is the second time we have booked them and we certainly weren’t disappointed. Super easy to book, with clear communication. Kip and his band managed the combination of small children and tipsy adults extremely well. We loved the special dance for us the bride and groom! All dances were different and fun. Highly recommend 👍🏼 "
