"From start to finish Stargazers's manager kept in regular contact with me and my partner, ensuring that we were kept in the loop, reassured and happy ahead of our wedding. On the day itself the band was FANTASTIC! Exactly what we wanted, with a great mix of songs (our age group ranged from 4-80!) which kept everyone entertained. Stargazers were professional throughout, and friendly, ensuring we were having the best time. In addition, the band were efficient in set up and pack down, arriving and departing quickly and quietly too. We would be sure to recommend them to anyone, especially weddings! Thanks Stargazers!"

"A great addition to our fundraiser that raised the bar of the whole event. We were late starting due to train strikes but Good Habits were happy to be flexible so I can't thank them enough. We particularly loved their cover of Those Were The Days!"

"A fantastic sea shanty band who bring traditional maritime songs together with lively new material. Their strong harmonies and obvious enjoyment of the music are matched by a wonderful ability to draw the audience in, turning listeners into enthusiastic shipmates. Warm, inclusive, and great fun from start to finish."

"Well, we went along to the Clutha benefit gig in The Classic Grand, there were such a choice of great bands to choose from on 2 floors, The Mrs & myself were downstairs as it was mostly rock bands and we had a seat, so the bands changed again & again until I heard the next band was a Ceilidh band, quite a few were looking around sort of laughing as if how’s this gonna fit in with the night, so there's now quite a few people sitting down waiting, so on comes as expected the usual accordion,fiddle,drummer & guitarist set up, and then it began, the accordion started then in came the fiddle then this electric rock guitar and ass kicking rock drum beat, and low and behold before you know it everybody's on their feet standing poking their heads up and down to see who the hell was making this amazingly blended sound of rock & Scottish folk, the accordion player’s fingers were impossible to track as they rolled up and down the board, and the fiddle was just about glowing to match, topped off with a great guitar and drums, with bits of Pink Floyd through to Miley Cyrus flung in, hard to believe but true, and all served up for your ears to savour at 100 mph, the whole place became electric, it was amazing to listen to and stunning to watch, I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed this band, We got talking to David (the accordion player) and his family afterwards and found him such a laugh & such a nice family, highlight of the night, so thanks to The Shooglers your time & talent is very well spent and it shows, cheers.

"Becky was absolutely fantastic. All of our guests loved Beci and her beautiful voice. Becikysang some lovely laid back jazzy songs and played the guitar. She was the perfect fit for our wedding reception. "

"Steve and the band were excellent on the night and the caller got everybody up and dancing and was part of the dance rather than just shouting instructions from the sidelines. Great fun was had by all! They even hepled out with playing our first dance track through their PA system when we could not get tyhe hotel one to connect. Would recommend this band. "

"The band was fantastic to work with, very helpful in the run up to the wedding with sending us pre recordings of our first dance song and organising the songs to be played on the night with us. They were also very flexible about having part ceilidh and part covers during the evening which was perfect! Lilac’s voice is incredible! The ceilidh went very well and all the guests enjoyed themselves swinging each other around! Very friendly and professional team - would definitely highly recommend to others!"

""We were so impressed with It's No Reel. They delivered exactly what they said they would, with no hassle or worries. We couldn't belive they did a cover of the Game of Thrones theme tune. We asked on the off chance, but they did a beautiful version for our first dance. The guests absolutely loved the band. The music got everyone up dancing and seeing everyone so happy made it all worth it. Thank you"."

"These guys did all the music at Douglas and Helen’s wedding on Saturday - any band who can convincingly slip a Pink Floyd cover into a round of the dashing white sergeant definitely get my vote - please check them out folks! "
