"Just a few words to say how much everyone enjoyed your band's playing at Gillian and Jeremy's wedding on Saturday evening. Your calling of the dances was excellent and you succeeded in getting lots of folk on to the dance floor. Many had never been to a ceilidh before, but you made it so easy for them to understand the steps. It was a super evening from start to finish and much fun was had by all. Several guests were singing your praises. Thank you all very much indeed for your lively contribution to the wedding reception."

"Everybody thoroughly enjoyed the evening and I was delighted with how many of the youngsters were prepared to give it a go! My daughter's feet are covered in blisters and my husband had cramp in his thighs all night. Too much dancing... Thank you again. Best wishes, Sue"

"Widely regarded as one of Wales’ foremost traditional bands, since their formation in 1996, Allan Yn Y Fan have taken Welsh traditional music all over the world. Wednesday 28th March, however, saw the band performing closer to home with a gig at one of their favourite venues, Blackwood Miner’s Institute. The evening took the format of two halves with an interval and this six piece band entertained us with a selection of traditional Welsh songs and tunes interspersed with original compositions, mainly from the pen of founder member Kate Strudwick but also with contributions from Chris Jones and Alan Cooper. All the music was taken from across the band’s 22 year career and took us on a journey from the Festival Interceltique at L’Orient to sparsely attended performances in Ireland before returning to Wales across a stormy Irish Sea, stopping to remember Kate’s former landlady and her cat along, the way. The songs were mainly entrusted to Catrin O’Neill who, since joining the band in 2015, has taken on the role of lead vocalist and her vocal style adds a haunting quality to such songs as Dafydd Y Garreg Wen and Lisa Lân, both of which take the passing of a loved one as their subject matter, Catrin’s versatility means she is equally at home singing about hopeful love, as in Ym Mhontypridd Mae’n Nghariad, or the celebratory staples of the Mari Lwyd in Pwnco and Canu Cwnsela or rousing songs of workers' rights, as in Gorthrwm Y Gweithiwr with its dire warning to the Victorian Ironmasters of Beaufort. This evening had all the ingredients needed to make a memorable performance, six talented performers who obviously enjoy performing together and transmitted that joy through their music to an appreciative audience, a quality venue with friendly staff and a crystal clear sound system ensuring that none of the music’s nuances were lost. It was a pleasure to attend this concert and I look forward to seeing Allan Yn Y Fan perform again in the not too distant future. "

"I just wanted to put on record my appreciation of Tim Barton’s efforts and musicianship during my 60th Birthday party celebration last Saturday night. Tim provided a really atmospheric soundtrack to the night, from the Beatles to Bowie to Sinatra. Even Billy Bragg got a look in! It was a perfect accompaniment to the party and Tim coped brilliantly, performing well over the general hubbub of many people who hadn’t seen each other for ages. I would happily book Tim again. "

"Elizabeth was an amazing harpist. She was lovely to have in attendance and she contributed to us both having the most wonderful wedding day. Elizabeth was kind enough to play again (by request)our walking in music, signing of the register and walking out music during our meal. Excellent service by both lastminutemusicians.com and Elizabeth. Thank you."

"Excellent ceilidh band! Had everyone up and dancing, very clear instructions so you don't have to know what you're doing. Music sounded fantastic. All communication beforehand and on the night very good. Would highly recommend."
