"The Starcasters were amazing when they played at our wedding celebration. From the time we booked them the communication was great. The music and singing was first class. They are all very talented. They played a good selection of music and people stayed on the dance floor. We had a lot of people saying how much they enjoyed the music. We would definitely recommend them and look forward to seeing them perform again."

"David and the band were brilliant. The booking process was fine and communications beforehand were simple and effective with the minimum of fuss. The band turned up exactly as planned on the day and although we kept them waiting because we were running behind, they accepted it all in good humour and waited patiently to start. Our guests were full of praise for them and loved their originality and musicianship. I just wish that it hadn't been quite so warm in the venue that evening and a few more people had danced along."

"So grateful for playing our wedding. Really made the day extra special, quality and technical skill was amazing, completely captured the vibe. Incredibly professional, supportive and friendly. They provided all the equipment and set up around the limited times we had (there for around 16 hours in total). Managed their system for our own play list around the live sets for no extra charge and offered to put a playlist together for us to take away some of the stress for the day if we needed. Played an acoustic set for an hour and 2 hour electric. Music was amazing anyway but also played a few requests of songs that meant a lot to us. Reasonable and affordable price, great value especially for the high quality performance and help. Would highly recommend. Really made the day and night for us. Thank you so much guys!!! Five stars!!!!"

"Hi John, It's Ruth here - the Birthday girl from the Klezmer Keilidh on 20th Apr. I wanted to thank you and Band for a simply wonderful evening. Everyone had a fabulous time, people have come up and said to me "as soon as the Band started playing" they just had to "get up and dance!" Another friend said that he had the "Best fun ever" The first piece was great at getting everyone up and involved. Really fun. Then I appreciated being able to lead Tsadik Katamar, and Jerusalama. Having some dances in 2s, and other in 3s allowed for those who came as a couple, or who came on their own to join with others. Thank you so, so much, again. Best wishes, Ruth"

"We saw Larry and the Hot Crossed Buns at a party at the Mesmerist and we were hooked. Chaz (the frontman) is super talented, as well as having a great ability to read the crowd. His music is versatile and it attracts people of all ages and musical tastes. More importantly the quality of the music and the arrangements are fantastic. I will certainly follow Chaz and his bands as they are a type of medicine for the soul."

"They were absolutely fantastic. The dance floor was full all night, and they interacted with guests so well. One of our nephews was invited on stage with them for a guitar solo which he LOVED and was such a nice touch. Can't recommend Straight Up enough. "

"I want to say a huge thank you to the whole band. The evening was made so special by the fun mix of music and professional way in which they setup and executed the set. Everybody had a cracking time and the band were a pleasure to host. Thank you very much Duncan for making the evening the success that it was. I hope we'll be in touch again in the future but best of luck with all you upcoming gigs. I'll be spreading the word! "

"This long-standing UK jug band capture the knockabout sound of the best Memphis jug bands of the 20s and 30s extremely well in addition to turning their hand to melodic blues, vintage jazz, old timey music and hokum. It all makes for a very fine and fun releas."
