"Rastrum played for our Burns Night at the University of York last week and it was one of the most successful student events we've had in months! It was the perfect setting for students to relax and have fun with old and new friends. The atmosphere was just buzzing and we've already had requests from students asking to do this again. The band were flexible with our venue change and were generous with the dances. The caller was very clear and warm which made the evening incredibly inclusive, especially as over 100 of our students had no idea what a ceilidh was at the start of the evening! So by popular demand I think we'll be getting a ceilidh booked in again very soon. And last but not least, the band play together perfectly and the tunes they chose were brilliant. "

"Top notch. Maestro Michael composed his piece, then rehearsed and conducted the choir with less than 3 hours rehearsal. Also a world class guitarist-classical and rock. Had a few hits with his own songs too. Quite a combination! "

"Just wanted to thank you so very much for the beautiful performance on Thursday at our auntie's funeral, so many people said how lovely it was. We could not have asked for a better send off for Jane. Many thanks, Jane's family."

"Morning Fiddlestix. A very big thank you to you and your fantastic band and your caller. We all had a fantastic evening and even though it may not have turned out as a true Barn Dance ( to much chatting I’m afraid), but everybody said how wonderful the music was. Thank you for everything. We won’t hesitate to recommend you all Regards David Pike"

"They are absolutely first-rate. First of all, both members sing and work together in beautiful harmony, and on top of that, they make all of their own arrangements so that you hear songs in a completely new and wonderful way. Their work is fantastic, we're delighted to have them working here for Viking!"

"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!"

"Dear Martin and Anna, Joyce and I would like to thank you so very much for the tremendous set you performed for us all on Saturday night; it exceeded all of our expectations! Right from the word go, your professionalism and enthusiasm shone through, with both of you demonstrating superb musicianship combined with the excellent calling skills of Anna who got everyone up on their feet for the whole night!

"Thank you so much to Kelly’s Heroes for performing at our wedding evening reception. They were friendly and helpful from the beginning of the booking process right through to after the wedding. All our guests loved them, they provided a great lively atmosphere, and encouraged everyone to get involved. We had guests who go to ceilidhs regularly, and some who had never been to one before. The ceilidh was suitable for everyone, and everyone said how much fun they had. One of the band members taught us the moves to a first dance ceilidh, which we then demonstrated so that everyone could get involved. It was a slower dance and an ideal start with to get everyone involved and comfortable with the dancing. We went for the six person band with two song sets and a ceilidh, and this was ideal for an evening do. Kelly’s Heroes played a great range of tunes which everyone enjoyed tapping along to even if they weren’t ready for a dance yet! We really hope to see them play again in the near future, and we definitely recommend them for events. "
