"We welcomed back Black Velvet Band Irish Trio for St Patrick's Day. They were amazing and really created a great atmosphere for the afternoon with all of our customers singing and joining in. If you want that authentic Irish sound I would definitely recommend this band and will definitely be having them back again! "

"Hi Davie and the band. Thank you all so much for an incredible night. Everyone keeps talking about how great the band were. A lot of fragile heads and sore feet today, sign of a good ceilidh! "

"Just a quick, and rather late, note to say a very Big Thank You to you and the team for the wonderful Saturday evening that you provided. We had an absolutely amazing time, and lots of the guests have said that they did too. We were really delighted to see so many people dancing, I don't think that anyone was able to restrain themselves. It was just a pity that the whole evening had to come to an end."

"We were looking for a Ceilidh Band for our wedding reception and we were thrilled to find Craigi! They were flexible responding to our requests when organising the event and wore traditional Scottish dress! They were very knowledgeable and talented musicians. We had lots of positive feedback from our guests! With clear instructions from the caller everyone picked up on the moves and were willing to join in! We had a wonderful time and we would like to thank the whole band for their part in making our night special! We highly recommend! "

"We just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and all the band, and of course your caller. We absolutely loved hearing you all play again and it was wonderful seeing all of our friends and family enjoying the dancing and music. It is something we will never forget.  We’re sorry that we weren’t running to time on the day, but thank you for being so understanding and I hope you all managed to enjoy some cake and cheese whilst you were waiting to set up.  We will be keeping an eye out for any future dates in your diary and coming along to another ceilidh, think we’ve got the bug! Please pass on our thanks to band, you all helped to make the day very special.  Warmest regards,  Teri and Matt "

"Just a note to say a huge 'THANK YOU" for making the Abrahams Oasis Concert very special. Your talent is amazing and people were mesmerised by your playing. Thank you again, especially as you had had such a busy day. Abrahams Oasis say a huge thank you too. We raised £580 on the night, which will go towards the running of the school in Ethiopia"

"Paul and Lindsay were the perfect addition to my grandma’s big family reunion / birthday party. Their communication throughout the booking process was flawless and professional. The actual performance was spell-bounding . The tunes they played were so nostalgic and nobodies feet could stay still. All guests were very impressed, and The Publicans were the talk of the party. Thanks again Paul - we hope to see you again soon!"

"The band played at our wedding on 23rd July 2022 and we’re incredible. Whilst everyone was having drinks and chatting after dinner, the band set up with seamless transition and started our evening party with a great set. They do something for everyone, we had the oldies up dancing alongside our young guests, and all having a good hearty sing along. And the Irish twist to the set was so much fun. Something different to a standard cover band. It was this part of the set that our guests still talk about. Thank you for giving us a the best end to our wonderful day. Vickie & James, Wedding at The Worplesdon Place in Guildford – 23rd July 2023 "

"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. "

"Excellent very professional band. Lots of communication before the event ensured that the leader of the Dogs Body Ceilidh Band knew what we wanted and they did not disappoint. Everyone commented on how good the band was and how good the caller was. They ensured that we had a great evening."
