"The Shooglers played at our wedding in May and they were great! They were brilliant at calling the ceilidh dances and Davie (the caller) certainly has the gift of the gab! He encouraged everyone to get up and dance and had people laughing in the process with lines like, 'the next dance is a prize dance... Prise yourselves off your seats and get up to dance!' All our guests commented on how good the band was and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them - a great find! "

"We just wanted to say thank you so much for playing at our chuppah. The aisle song was absolutely beautiful and made our ceremony so special. As I'm sure you saw everyone loved the simcha set. It really gave the simcha a good energy and everyone loved it!"

"Wraggle Taggle were fantastic for my birthday party at Alexandra Park School. Mick was a great communicator leading up to the event and made me feel reassured that everything was well-planned. The music was excellent and the caller made sure that we all had a great time joining in although most of us were unfamiliar with the dances beforehand. Some of the comments I received from friends were "it made me feel young again!" and "I haven't had so much fun for a long time!" Thank you to Mick and the band for a wonderful evening! "

"Dear Davie and all the band, just to say the very biggest of thank you for Saturday night - you were just brilliant, everything and more that we could have wanted from our wedding band, and we have had so many comments and compliments from everyone who was there about you - I have a feeling many of them will remember when organising their future events as you guys just take ceilidh to a whole new level. We had an absolute ball reeling our way round, especially for 'Another Brick in the Dashing White Sergeant', and the Cumberland reel was utterly Epic - not one we had in fact danced before but definitely the best of the night!! And had so much fun with the rock side - all the family were up and going for their favourites. Hope you had fun and managed to squeeze in a bacon roll and some cake - and a beer or two!! Thanks again! "

"Words can not describe how good these guys were. From the very first song they had our guests hooked! The dance floor was heaving from beginning to end. The range of their play lists are outstanding, definitely have something for everyone. The quality of their performance was outstanding, and they are such a great bunch of guys. We have had so many messages from our guests saying how amazing they all thought Crimson Sky were, and there were a lot of aching legs and feet the next day due to all the dancing! These guys really were the icing on the cake for us, and helped make our day so memorable. We just wish we could do it all again - and if we did, we would definitely be having these guys! Thank you so much!"

"We booked Crimson Sky for our wedding in June 2018 and it was the best thing we did. The band were absolutely fantastic and covered a mixed variety of songs which got everybody up dancing. All our guests commented on how good they were. We would most definitely recommend booking these guys. "

"We would like to Thank Pavlina and Ciaran for their amazing music on Saturday. They have a great song mix, beautiful voices which complement each other perfectly. They got our group dancing with ease. The duo is punctual, very flexible and easy to deal with. It was an absolute pleasure to have them and we will certainly book again on next opportunity."

"Highly recommend these guys" A brilliant performance by 3 talented musicians and showmen. They made out birthday party go with a swing. Every body was up and dancing, they couldn't help themselves. Wide range of music that got everyone engaged. Highly recommend these guys. Donna and I would like to thank you and the band for a fabulous performance at my birthday party on Saturday (15th April 2023 Redlands Road, Reading, RG1) Everybody enjoyed the music and some have become converts to Irish Trad as a result! The combination of Box, Banjo and Guitar worked very well as did your singing of everybody's favourite sing along songs. I'm sure we will be calling on your services again soon. Best regards, Brendan and Donna Rogers 20th April 2023"
