"The Storm Band exceeded our expectations. They were absolutely fantastic! All my guests were up dancing & thoroughly enjoyed the Band. Colin was exceptional in meeting our needs when we had a little hiccup a week before the Wedding. Thank you so much to The Storm Band for bring entertainment & magic to our wonderful Wedding. Xxx"

"We booked these guys for our wedding in May 2022 and in one word they were AMAZING!!! (apologies for the delayed review guys.. having technology problems) We wanted a ceilidh dance for a part of the night along with more modern and 'traditional' wedding wedding party songs later on, and to be honest we were struggling to find any groups that 'fit the bill. Then we found Ceilidh With Us. Right from the first contact we knew it was going to just what we wanted and all throughout the process they were so helpful, from organising the timetable of the evening, to working with our song lists and making it all fit together to create one hell of a fantastic night. Lilac performed our first dance song amazingly, we couldn't have been happier, and the ceilidh went down a storm (even if we all struggled with the dashing white sergeant - if you know you know). In short I can not recommend these guys more highly. You will not regret hiring them."

"The Shooglers have played for us twice now and I can't wait to get them booked for next year! They have been a huge hit at both charity ceilidhs which we have organised, people attending telling us how great they thought they were. The band are so easy to work with, they are a friendly bunch and are very talented. Their music is fantastic, it's such a relief knowing that if anything else goes wrong on the night the music will be first class. They have banter with the guests and call dances brilliantly. They are definitely going to be the first people I get in touch with when I start organising next year's ceilidh. I'd recommend them to everyone, I've already passed on contact details to several people who loved their sound. Thanks again boys, can't wait to work with you again soon! :) Thanks again for an awesome ceilidh! "

"Polina plumbs energy from the same archetypical sources that make blues and flamenco singing so powerful."

"Hi Fiddlestix, thank you so much for such a fun time at our party on Saturday. The band were amazing and Geoff the caller did an amazing job at keeping us under control! The dance floor was always packed and we’ve had so many compliments about you. This is the first time many of our friends have been to a Ceilidh and they all had a great time. Well done and thankyou for such a fabulous night! Keep up the good work. Your music and enthusiasm is wonderfully infectious! Many thanks again. Helen and Mike."

"These lads were amazing! Plenty of communication in the lead-up with very quick responses and on the day itself everything went without a hitch. The band sounded amazing and played so well! All my guests absolutely loved the band with lots of people commenting on how great they sounded and they played banger after banger - thanks, Jake and lads! "

"If you need your event to go with a swing then Tim and Bella are the best! They played at a recent Open Garden event at my home and were completely professional, great fun and knew their audience, tailoring the music to ensure that everyone who came to the garden really enjoyed themselves. "

"Having a Ceilidh band and a caller will absolutely make your event. There are two things my family and friends talk about when they talk about my wedding: the Ceilidh and our magician. So first off, going for a Ceilidh really is worthwhile. It's super inclusive, all your guests end up dancing together, it's so much fun, loads of laughter and it means EVERYONE is on the dancefloor. So now you're sold on a Ceilidh... you need to think no further than hiring Sound With Us. I have had 70 guests of varying physical abilities, varying ages (from 2 months to 75 years old) and of various languages spoken.... The caller was incredible: fun but also very patient and very visual, repeating instructions as many times as necessary. Also unexpected on the day, one of the member of the band knew a very famous French song which (me being Belgian) meant that my whole family got up and sang with him. He performed in between sets, totally unsolicited. Honestly, Ceilidh With Us helped make our day totally unforgettable."
