"We had a fantastic joint 30th birthday party for 60 people and the Black Velvet Ceilidh Band did an amazing job of making the evening a huge success! Mike gave me a call a couple of weeks prior to the event to confirm all arrangements such as timings, location, numbers, and the experience of the party goers (very mixed - lots of complete beginners). Mike was really enthusiastic on the phone and I felt very confident all was going to go well. At the beginning of the evening, we were pretty disorganized and neither James or I were there to meet the band on arrival, but our friend saw them into the venue and they were very flexible and happy to go with the flow and got set up really quickly. The whole band were keen to help and happily agreed to start the ceilidh a little later than planned, as well as letting me use the mic to make announcements! The 2 x 1 hour sets of ceilidh dancing were amazing and both the calling and music were fantastic - our guests absolutely loved every moment of it and have all said how much they enjoyed the music and dancing. Thank you very much to the whole band for an excellent evening, we would recommend you to anyone! "

"What can I say other than these 2 wonderful performers made my recent cruise . I thought they were the best thing on the ship and hope that Ambassador realise this Kelly can sing absolutely anything and makes every song her own in the most relaxed way she makes it seem easy and I know that for the amount of time she had to sing every night it would be anything but easy . Graham is an amazing musician and plays guitar as well as Hank Marvin Thank you both for making my cruise so enjoyable xxxxxxxx Ps I’m the women who whispered thanks on the last night as I walked past on last night x"

"James played at small private party for my Dads 70th. I had told him prior to the date the sort of music my Dad loved and he delivered, including the finale of his favourite ever song! Dad absolutely loved it and really enjoyed James. Thank you."

"The band was the definitive highlight of the Christmas Ball we hosted. Their extensive and varied repertoire of country music ensured broad appeal, maintaining high energy without compromising musical excellence. Their performance was executed flawlessly, resulting in overwhelmingly positive feedback from all attendees. We highly recommend them without reservation."

"Lilac came and sang at my 40th birthday, in a barn in the rainy weather, she was fantastic, great voice and the sound was absolutely immense. Her and Remko were lovey to meet and camped with us to continue the celebrations. Really fantastic!"

"This event was a sell out for us and we always have a fantastic time with this Country Duo. If you like Country music, you should check this act out. Highly recommended and we will hire them again for sure. "

"The Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio helped make our event go smoothly with great communication and punctual arrival. The music was well performed and great fun. The caller did a fantastic job of putting people at ease an encouraging lots of dancing and everyone had a great time. At our working event the next day, many attributed the positive mood and energy to the ceilidh the night before, so maybe it is the secret to successful strategy seminars?!"

"What a great way to celebrate St Patrick’s day at our Cons club! The performance went amazingly well! The dance floor was full on a SUNDAY AFTERNOON! I put that down to the guys who played songs and tunes with such an exciting beat that you just couldn’t stay still. The whole afternoon was huge fun. I highly recommend the band."

"I wanted a Blues Tribute Band for my 50th birthday celebrations and my party theme was always going to be a Toga party. The film “Animal House” made a lasting impression at a young age. I searched online and found the group “106 miles to Chicago”, viewed the home page, read the reviews; I liked what I had seen and I decided to mail Andy. The whole experience has been totally flawless; any questions I had were answered within 24 hours by email and we did not verbally communicate or meet until the party. The guys turned up on set, on time, fixed up, dressed up and gave it their all from start to finish. Every party guest wanted to know who they were, where they were from and whether they were available in the future. Andy, Chris, the Sax players and the crew were fantastic and they made a memorable evening; everyone loved it and the event could not have gone better, I was totally thrilled. Can’t wait until my 60th……"

"What a superb band for our wedding party - the guys were lovely, really friendly and helpful and got everyone involved and having the time of their lives! A ceilidh is such fun and a great way to ensure *all* your guests are involved in the celebrations - there were smiles on the faces of everyone dancing, and everyone watching! I cannot recommend this highly enough - absolutely delightful, highly professional, and a total pleasure to work with to make sure we had an unforgettable evening"
