Review Centre: Barn Dance Bands

"The Shooglers were incredible for our wedding reception. The Ceilidh calling was fantastic and the mix of Ceilidh folk and rock/pop beats was just amazing. The entire dance floor filled so fast! Not only were the Ceilidh tunes good the band also played some brilliant Beatles covers near the end after my wife and I spoke to them about how much we loved the Beatles. We now have lifetime memories on the dance floor from our wedding. Thank you so much to Davie and the guys from The Shooglers, you are awesome! "

"The ceilidh was all amazing, couldn’t fault it. The caller worked really hard to make sure everyone at least sort of had a clue what they were doing, and adapted it for when there were too many couples and not enough space! Only complaint is that he almost killed me making me do Strip the Willow line twice with my very enthusiastic husband!! Thanks for everything 😊"

"The ceilidh was the highlight of our wedding. Despite us running very late on the day, Blue Jewel were extremely professional and adaptable, and put on a stunning ceilidh. The atmosphere they created was exactly what we hoped for. Everyone joined in, everyone laughed, everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. Thank you to you all- a real evening to remember! :)"

"Thank you for a fantastic ceilidh last evening. You all helped make it a wonderful wedding for Frith and Daniel. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and it was great to see them all dancing together. We hope you will pass on our heartfelt thanks to the rest of the band and your very bouncy caller."

"Absolutely brilliant. We organised a Rotary Barn Dance and were very impressed with the quality of music and the easy going, professionalism of the whole band. Will definitely use them again in the future. Maria"

"A general consensus put your slot at the top of the list for the w/e, closely followed, I must add, by the hog! Thank you so much for making us all smile – everyone loved the music and commented on the brilliant “calling” – a bright lady! I have given your name to several folk, but I wasn’t able to tell them how far you travel for a gig, as many of our friends live in the Bristol area. Thanks again for helping to make our 60th birthday party so memorable."

"The band set the tone for an evening where everyone, but everyone, joined in the dancing in our village hall. There was an enormous variety in the types of dances, no fuss about who was meant to be standing on the right or left of their partner and lots of patience when dancers didn't initially get the hang of where to move. And probably best of all they were open to requests for dances outside their normal repertoire. A good night was had by all. Thanks!"

"Ceilidh With Us - WOW WOW WOW. Lilac and Remko honestly put on one of the best nights of our lives for our wedding reception. We were both sceptical of a band that said they could play anything (we challenged them to do a ceilidh and rock covers), but we were proved so wrong as they delivered the best live wedding set I've ever heard. The Scottish people at the wedding commenting on how good the ceilidh was (led by Jake the caller), and Lilac and the band were stunning for the rock covers. Everyone dancing from start to finish. I can't put into words how great these guys were from start to finish, so helpful and accommodating and I would recommend these guys to anyone. Awesome, awesome band."

"Hey guys, gutted I didn't even get to see the set, but people couldn't say enough good things about what a blinder you played. So many were completely blown away by the genius of the fusion. Was a pleasure to have met you boys, and hopefully, I'll actually get to see you in action at your next Glasgow show. "

"We booked Kellys Heroes to play at our wedding earlier this year and we were not disappointed! Everyone at our wedding was up on the dance floor, dancing for the entire set, they're great musicians with a great set list. I think all of our guests could have gone on for the rest of the night. Everyone still tells us that it was one of the highlights of any wedding they've been to. Thank you! "
