"Iron Broo Ceilidh Band are a fantastic set for any Ceilidh! I had them as a 2 piece band and they commanded the audience (some 120 people) with absolute ease. Their dance calling brought foreign newcomers into the fray and dancing like they'd known it all their lives. Their Romany style twists on traditional Scottish dances made for a changing and upbeat atmosphere which kept the evening fresh. Would, will, and already have recommended Iron Broo to others!"

"We hired Unwritten Duo to perform at a Private house/Garden Party for my parents wedding anniversary. She turned up on time with all her own gear, set up without fuss, and was really professional. She did 2 sets, interacted with guests and reacted to the audience, mood well and really made the party. Excellent singer and vocals with a brilliant personality. Definitely recommend her and will consider using her again. Andy Moore "

"We are so glad we asked Becky to play at our wedding in January. She sang three absolutely brilliant covers of our favourite songs, which she went out of her way to learn (on guitar and piano) especially for the occasion and which exceeded all of our expectations. Becky played two sets during our wedding, both of which were perfectly tailored to what we needed. Her voice and the music were beautiful and served to heighten the emotions of the day! We highly recommend getting Becky to play for any special occasion, she really couldn’t have done a better job for us and was a true professional. "

"Hey guys, Thank you for playing at our wedding on Sunday in The Drumossie. It was a brilliant performance and made the evening really memorable for everyone. Still not sure how you got Another Brick in the Wall into a ceilidh dance but it worked and it was impressive! Couldn’t have been better. Thanks so much! "

"This band is absolutely incredible both live and recorded. Live, they are hugely versatile and highly engaging, getting the audience on their feet dancing and singing along, or sitting back in awe as Amy hits those stunning high notes in Somewhere over the Rainbow. Their studio recordings are absolutely magical, I have them on repeat on all my playlists! My absolute favourite is Fotheringay for which they have a beautifully haunting music video too. Their own original songs are also absolutely fantastic, of indistinguishable quality from their covers. A great band recommended for any occasion."

"The Shooglers were great fun and had everyone on the dancefloor. We had a lot of comments about how they were much better than a traditional celidh band. They also interacted with the audience and really got the party going. "

"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. "

"Where to begin....we absolutely, ABSOLUTELY loved having you guys. Even though the guests took a life time to warm up and dance, they had nothing but love for you guys. Honestly, think the heat was putting people off dancing. We really enjoyed what we heard of your set and our Dads especially loved you guys. The plan now is to attend a performance of yours in the near future with the dads :) Thanks for everything, absolutely love the photo you put on insta."

"Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Bry had also arranged a violinist to accompany him during our ceremony. We had a special (Brazilian) song request for the ceremony which was performed so beautifully and it was no issue for Bry to learn it for us. Thanks a million for that and for all the other song requests too. Nothing seemed a bother and it was a pleasure working with you. The band and DJ were so professional and got the crowd going for the night do. Everyone was buzzing and we got so many compliments about the music. Unreal! 100% recommend. "

"Lilac, Remko and all of the band are simply brilliant!! Wholeheartedly recommended! We hired Funk With Us to play at our wedding party. From the very first enquiry Lilac was super friendly, very considerate of what we wanted, flexible and always there to answer our questions and offer good suggestions on the song lists, set-up, etc. And the performance on the night was amazing!! High quality sound and musicianship, but more importantly the whole band did a fantastic job in creating a fun party vibe which got everyone dancing for hours. All of our guests commented for days afterwards how great they were! Thank you Funk With Us, you guys rock!!! ?"
