"Black Velvet Band Irish Trio - Cheltenham Gold Cup - March 2025 Absolutely brilliant band - everybody loved them! We booked the band to play at The Three Lions, Stourport-on-Severn on Gold Cup Day 2025 and didn't regret the decision. They came in set up and started playing straight away and immediately the dance floor was full. We were turning people away at the door as the pub was full to the brim! They played to the crowd and they thoroughly enjoyed themselves as well. "

"What can we say but the most enormous THANKYOU for a wonderful evening on the 25th! You made our wedding reception utterly wonderful and so many of our guests have said how much they enjoyed the evening and the music. My 93 year old grandmother refused to leave until the end and her feet were tapping all evening....she even joined in the last dance and that has to be credit to you. One table of guests had never been to a ceilidh before and said how much fun it was. You already have a couple of photo share recommendations on Facebook! I didn't get chance to speak to anyone directly as it was all a bit mental on the night but I really appreciated your professionalism and hard work. I hope you got chance to have some food....I did ask the team to reserve some! Be assured we will be booking you for our next ceilidh."

"I want to thank you from the bottom my heart for helping in finding a replacement for our piper who was poorly. Patrick was wondering and was truly a highlight of the day. "

"We had a wedding party which included visitors from Australia, several European countries, the south of England as well as Scots. It's No Reel Ceilidh Band made sure that everyone had the chance to learn the dances and the great atmosphere they generated made sure we all had a fantastic time. Their take on the progressive barn Dance was very entertaining. Tom could not have been more helpful with the arrangements beforehand, as well as on the night itself, and everyone was very complimentary about the music."

"Pipe Major Patrick was great. He arrived early, was perfectly happy to get ready and practice until the published start time. His playing ideally formed a musical backdrop to our beacon ceremony and was clearly much enjoyed by the village audience. Patrick followed the instructions around interludes and fireworks without any problem at all. We feel a Burn's Night coming on."

"Hi Michael, We just wanted to drop you a quick email before we are off on honeymoon to say thank you for playing last night. The music and calling were truly excellent, and so many of our guests have told us how much they enjoyed the ceilidh - the fitness test component included..... We had a fantastic night and it was lovely to see everyone getting involved and having so much fun. Even Mr Perfect."

"Gentlemen... what a fantastic band. We see bands here every week but you guys were miles better than any we've ever seen. I am not working today so have spoken with the manager on duty to leave a comment for you. Perhaps then some of our other clients will choose you for their functions at Achnagairn House. Hope you made it safely back down the road last night. Hope to see you all soon again. "

"Such a wonderful band, and would definitely have them again. Everyone enjoyed the dancing even if they were just watching. Even my husband who never dances joined in and is now a ceilidh addict. 10/10! Highly recommend! "

"What can we say?! You guys were fantastic, we had so much fun as did our guests who have not stopped with the compliments since. It was our first ceilidh dance like many of our guests but it mattered not at all, Kip was brilliant at calling the moves and getting everyone up on their feet having a go and managing to get us holding it together which is no mean feat when it comes to rhythmically challenged mates!! And for those of my guests who have been to many a ceilidh dance, they too couldn't praise the band highly enough and all said it was the best they have been to. One very happy bride :-) I'd recommend Blue Jewel to anybody wanting to inject some fun into any party - the perfect ice breaking, crowd pleasing entertainment, everyone can join in and have a blast, no rhythm required!!
