"Thank you so much for making our wedding the party of the year – everyone loved the music! Black Velvet Band Irish Trio played at our wedding reception and they were brilliant. I had worried whether people would want to dance to Irish music but I shouldn’t have. Everyone loved the music! We had a real proper Irish Hooley, with lots of dancing, singing-along and some humour in-between. As this was a marriage of cultures (English, Irish and Dutch) we were also touched that the band played a couple of traditional Dutch songs, allowing the Dutch to have a good sing-along as well. And when my dad asked if they could accompany him for a song to sing after his speech, it was no problem. The guys in the band are proper musicians who can play what the crowd needs to keep the party fuelled. The only complaint I have had is from my knees – which are still complaining, even after 4 days rest! Next time, I will wear trainers."

"I just wanted to drop you a quick email to tell you how fantastic you were on Friday for our Christmas Party. I have had so many people come up to me and compliment the music and how great the jazz trio were. It really set the scene of the evening and sounded beautiful. I was so happy with it all as were all the party attendees. I can’t praise you enough. Thank you again so much for a wonderful performance. I would recommend you again and again!! "

"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – Angela’a Son’s Wedding – August 2025 Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio were brilliant at our son’s wedding. They arrived promptly, set up without any fuss, played two brilliant sets , were very generous with their time and got everyone dancing. Mike called the dances clearly and gave people chance to have a quick practice. Mike encouraged everyone and the dance floor never emptied. The band really helped make the wedding very special."

"We booked the Black Velvet Band Gypsy Duo (accordion and fiddle) to play at our wedding celebration garden party in August. Mike and Jase played exactly the music we wanted, a lovely mix of traditional, modern, jazz, Irish and were happy to play requests. We live on a farm and when the duo started up, all our cows came running up the field and stayed close to enjoy the lovely sounds coming from the garden. I have to say, the two were perfect for our garden party and the sound of the fiddle and accordion ringing out into the evening was absolutely lovely and was thoroughly enjoyed by our guests whose ages ranged from six to ninety! Mike and Jase are lovely, affable chaps and we should have no hesitation in booking them again if we have another “do”! I highly recommend them. "

"The band played great music, they had great melody and guests commented on this. They played for my parents 40th wedding anniversary 8th Sept 2018. Fun was had by all. The band played a good selection of music and lots of guests commented on this also. My parents thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The Tom Belbin Trio Jazz Band really made it a good party and are a very talented band. I have to say they were also very accommodating, as we had long speeches etc.. I would have no problem in recommending The Grand Central Trio jazz band."

"We just wanted to say big thank you for amazing performance the band has done which made our Big Day even more special. The band was fantastic, playing great gypsy jazz songs that everyone enjoyed and we had even our dance to "Sing sing sing", which was amazing. You fitted so well to the ambient of Pembroke Lodge and I would definitely recommend you to any couple who needs some vintage elegant touch to their Wedding Reception."

"I booked 'The Grand Central Trio' for my 60th birthday party. They were fabulous: on time, friendly, professional and oh so talented!. They created a great atmosphere on the night. Communication was straightforward and thorough and they were very patient with my endless emails and phone calls. I would certainly recommend them."

"We had a fantastic experience with Fann Street Hot Club. They were exactly what we wanted, and more. All our guests wanted to know where on earth we had found you! Thank you so much for all the attention to detail, answering the (many!) emails from me, and your gorgeous playing. We hope to hear you play again. All our very best wishes, Anna Copp"
