Review Centre: Irish Bands

"Party Sounds were simply excellent. Not only was the music fantastic, but they are really nice guys too. Helpful and supportive, the dance floor was packed from start to finish. We had a varied age group at the party and all enjoyed the performance without exception. I would highly recommend this band and if I was hosting another party they would be the first band I would contact."

"I hired Slider to play at my husbands surprise 40th birthday party. I can’t recommend the band enough, nothing was too much trouble (they even dressed up as Peaky Blinders in keeping with the theme of the party). They read the room and knew how to keep everyone on the dance floor, I’ve had so many positive comments about the band from the party guests and I can honestly say I would hire them again in a heart beat!"

"We had an amazing time and everyone has said how much they enjoyed it. Even a couple of friends who were very sceptical of Ceilidhs were won over and had a great time! One of my American friends who had no experience of folk music just walked up to me and said 'This is the best thing since....just the best'."

"The band were a great edition to our wedding party event. They arrived on time and had no issues setting up independently with minimal direction from us as hosts. They gave good directions in terms of getting us started with a first dance, and set the tone for the two sets they played perfectly – giving great instructions to the mostly complete novice crowd present, with a good dose of humour alongside. Everyone there from small children through to retirees was able to participate. I wouldn’t hesitate to book them again for a future event, or to recommend them to others."

"Dermot played yesterday at the funeral of my mother-in-law, who was an Irish historian, and was sensational. Sensitive, thoughtful, joyful and deeply moving. It was, as they say, exactly what she would have wanted, and was greatly appreciated by everyone there. Thank you!"

"More than just a wedding band; they provide a tailor made service that is of the highest, professional quality. We both work in the entertainment industry and were struggling to find a band that would meet our exacting standards but they completely blew us away and we had the best wedding party ever! The dance floor was FULL all night."

"Huw was fantastic. He very kindly sang an additional song (Ed Sheehan kiss me - acoustic version) whilst I walked up the aisle which was brilliant. "

"Mike and Jon pitched the performance perfectly for the Fleur de Lis Mike and Jon pitched the performance perfectly for the Fleur de Lis Retirement Home’s garden party in Romsey. The American Country songs created just the right atmosphere to establish the Wild West theme. Everyone loved it – they joined in all the songs! Several residents have sent me messages to say how much they enjoyed the event. We were delighted with the performance and thoroughly recommend the band. "

"My legs are still aching because I danced so much! The band arrived on time and were very friendly and helpful and the music was delightful. It was a mixed crowd, many of whom had never met each other before but with one thing in common – they had never done ceilidh dancing before! The caller was absolutely brilliant – it didn’t matter that most people had no idea how to dance the reels! Everyone joined in and thoroughly enjoyed themselves."
