Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Thanks so much for playing at our wedding on Saturday. The band were so easy to communicate with in the run up, packed the playlist with songs we loved and were great fun on the night. Their set was in an orangery during a heatwave so a pretty hot room. Despite most of the guests dancing outside due to the heat they still created a great vibe. Particular thanks for doing a fantastic rendition for our first dance!"

"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?!"

"We got married on 1st June 2024 & hired Enchanted Harpist as our harpist for the ceremony & drinks reception. From the very first contact to the wedding day itself, Enchanted Harpist was phenomenal. A lovely, warm person to communicate with & incredibly responsive to all queries. We felt she was excited as we were & was really keen to personalise the music set list for us. Her repertoire of songs is impressive - from classical, to Disney, to Studio Ghibli, to Irish, to popular/hit song covers etc. She was additionally happy to learn songs we requested & I cannot express just how much we - & our guests - enjoyed her incredible talent on the day! We were only sad we didn't get to experience more of her music on the day! 110% recommend if you are looking for a harpist for any occasion. Thank you Dorothy! <3"

"We have stayed in the hotel before and really enjoyed it, and booked a meal this evening for Valentine’s Day celebration. The food was delicious and the service excellent. There was a pianist (Nigel Hammond) playing a variety of music during our meal which was lovely and really added to the ambience..."

"The setting for our August 2018 wedding was the beautiful Arnos Vale’s Woodland Undercroft. There was a “Gothic Lite” theme to this largely (we had a marquee!) outdoor event which we wanted to be as informal as possible. It was important to us that everybody who was attending or contributing to the event felt that they were able to participate in the occasion as guests. For this reason we wanted musicians who we felt would “fit in” the with guests as well as playing the type of music that we wanted . Having trawled through various websites we discovered the “Hot Hats” and, having played their version of “Friday I’m In Love”, knew that we didn’t need to look any further. The sound was great and the image of the band was just what we wanted. Having then seen the band play a couple of times, it was clear that the personalities and sound was just what we wanted. As there was no particular running order for our afternoon reception, our brief to the band was, basically, “play when you think you need to” and this worked a treat. In addition we were played down the aisle to the band playing “I’m A Believer” which was a really special moment for us. There was good communication at the point of booking which was a painless process and continued contact with Alfie and his agent made arranging the event so much easier. We loved the band and the guests loved them as well. We would therefore have no hesitation in recommending the “Hot Hats” for your event. Martin & Nikki P.S. If there was a downside to our afternoon it was that Alfie (despite his best efforts) was unable to teach the bride to properly strum a guitar but, in the overall scheme of things, we’ll let that pass!"

"These guys really know how to entertain. They’ve got it all. The music is tight. The entertainment value and energy they provide to any venue is second to none. If you want a successful event, the Oompah Stompers are a must. I enjoyed all of their performance at the Bierhaus in Bangor and recommend them to you. I can’t wait to see them again. You can catch them on Friday and Saturday nights in the near future I believe. 10 out of 10 stars from me. "

"We had a private family party. Superfun did well. We started off with introductory music and then some some 80s soul/funk/ disco tracks as we requested. The rest of the evening was great with pop, charts, party and other fun music. Also we had some 50s and 60s music for the oldies. Everyone had fun and the music was not too loud. I will use Superfun in the future. (And yes even though we had the Birdy Song played.) Pegs."

"If you want a band that deliver a great night of music and fantastic sound then this is the band for you. From booking, to the party great communication with a very attentive approach. I can only recommend these guys, but if you have any doubts go and see them locally you will not be disappointed. Thanks for making my night so special."
