"Following on from previous testimonial : My only negative is that we hadn’t found Danny sooner so that we could have booked him for longer and the guests would have had more of a chance to hear how incredible he is! Stunning vocal, ridiculously talented musician, professional, helpful, really friendly. The list of compliments could go on and on. Staff in the office also very helpful and made the process very straightforward."

"The band played for our wedding and were fantastic, they were relaxed and flexible to fit in with our arrangements. The music was great they are all very talented musicians and the caller was patient and relaxed. We would definitely go to their events in the future and would highly recommend them for any social occasion. Thanks guys"

"I want to send the biggest thank you to the best ceilidh band I have ever had the pleasure of dancing to! Tom, Aaron and Scott were incredible from start to finish. Tom was great at responding to emails and organising everything. He even went out of his way to make sure he had the correct first dance song downloaded and so many little extras. I've been to many ceilidhs over the years and this was by far the best! As my husband is Portuguese, more than 50% of the wedding party had never been to a ceilidh before. Tom was fantastic at calling the dances and teaching everyone how to do it. There wasn't a single person sitting down and everyone loved it! We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the band were. Thanks so much to all of you for making our wedding night one to remember. I would recommend you to anyone!"

"Lilac, Rem and the band were amazing! From start to finish, they were helpful and knowledgeable. They know how to throw a party. Lilac taught us all several fun line dances. The dance floor was packed at all times. Thank you so much!!!"

"Thank you so much Murphy's Lore Ceilidh, It was a such a wonderful way to celebrate the wedding, thank you so much. Everyone loved it!! Also didn’t say at the time, my Dad used to sing ‘Star of the County Down’, so it felt like he was there with us 💕"

It was a great evening, we could see lots of people singing along to the songs too. See you again somewhere!

"For 13 years I have coordinated highly successful ceilidh dances in Bishopbriggs High School and now the new Bishopbriggs Academy. These Christmas dances are the culmination of 3 weeks of social dance with all year groups and it it a priority of mine that we have live music to create an upbeat atmosphere. I consider it part of my job to ensure these traditional dances are taught in school in a way pupils will enjoy and will perpetuate. This year I secured the services of The Shooglers for our S5/6 dance. The evening was a fantastic success and enjoyed immensely by pupils and staff alike. The band worked a perfect blend of traditional Scottish dance tunes with contemporary music the pupils are familiar with, which heightened their participation in – and positive attitude to – “social dancing”. I have already asked the band to perform at next year’s S5/6 dance in the school. I know it will be a special occasion. I recommend The Shooglers unreservedly to anyone hosting school dances, weddings or any kind of function. "

"What a wonderful evening! I’m sorry not to have written before now, but this is my first opportunity for saying a big thank you to you and the band for an excellent evening’s entertainment last Saturday. Everyone, who has passed comment to me, said what a vast improvement Montana Rain was compared with our previous band, and from your results of getting people up and moving, I can only endorse that commendation! I look forward to contacting you early to book you for next year’s Square Dance."

"We had these guys at Drimsynie Estate Holiday Village for New Year, and I cannot rate them highly enough! Made my job easier, allowed me to mingle with the guests, and make their night a little bit better. Very professional on stage, had the dancefloor filled all night long, I don't know how the dancers danced or as long as they did! If you are humming and hawing about booking these guys, just do it, you won't regret it!"

"The Tommy Aces played at our wedding recently, and we recommend them highly. The communication beforehand was excellent, ensuring they included our favourite songs. They also catered for our guests' requests. Their music, manner and vibe were excellent and everybody loved them, especially us!"
