Thankyou again Mr & Mrs Richardson xxx"

"We had Martin perform for my husbands 40th birthday party. Can’t recommend him enough, his performance was fantastic and we had a lot of guests comment on how great he was throughout the night. From booking through to the actual party Martin was very friendly, responsive and helpful. There was a wide range of music to choose from and nothing seemed to much trouble."

"I was looking for something varied and musical on the site and kept coming back to listen to Quo and Co. Such a warm mellow sound. They played for our lunchtime 75th birthday party - mixed age group so we needed a mix of styles and songs. We couldn’t have been more delighted. They played all the songs we had requested and more, and several of our guests told us that they were happy to stand or sit by them just to listen and soak up the gorgeous atmosphere they created. We would definitely go back to them on another occasion. My only regret was that I didn’t have enough time to just sit and listen to them myself!"

" Davie, I just wanted to contact you to say, ‘thank you VERY much, indeed’ to you and your band members for performing last Friday evening at the annual Grange Dyvours Tennis Club ‘Snow Ball’ and making it the tremendous success that it was. I have been to many weddings, ceilidhs and parties over the years and danced to many bands and I can tell you, without a shadow of a doubt, that ‘The Shooglers’ stand head and shoulders above the rest. Who would have thought that weaving in Pink Floyd and Deep Purple tracks in the middle of a Dashing White Sergeant would have worked but it did! You were an absolute pleasure to deal with, before our event; you all drove a considerable distance to arrive, at exactly the time requested, to set up all your equipment then, after our dinner, you returned to put on the most amazing performance. Some of our (non-Scottish) members had never danced some of the dances before but you made sure to talk everyone through what was expected, as a warm up, before the mayhem began. My face was sore laughing, at the end of some of those dances. Just brilliant. Our ‘Snow Ball’ on Friday evening was an astounding success and we have you to thank for that. Absolutely first class. P.s. Also, thanks for taking our booking for our ball, next Christmas. I wanted to get in quick to secure you as I know how much in demand you are! "

"We booked Dahlia for our wedding in April and they were absolutely amazing! A string quartet is the only thing I was certain I wanted from the start and I’m so glad I found Dahlia. Heather made the process completely seamless and was so kind and helpful throughout.There was lots of tears as they played me down the aisle (which is what I wanted!). Would recommend to all couples planning their special day"

"Four absolutely sound blokes who we had a laugh with and who put us at ease straight away. We asked them to have an absolute blast with the evening and that in turn kept our dance floor packed with something for everyone throughout the evening. Every guest that we have spoken to have mentioned the band and have said how fantastic they were. We were really pleased with their performance and have no doubt that we made the right choice for our wedding. I would 100% recommend TIDE to anyone looking for a quality band who are versatile and talented enough to put their own twists on well known current and also classic songs. Thank you guys, we hope to see you again when we can both sit back (and maybe dance) and enjoy your performance a bit more! "

"Just a quick note to say thank you so much for playing so brilliantly at the event on Saturday. There has been lots of positive feedback from the event, and we really hope that you will be able to play for us again next year. Thank you especially for managing to get through the programme in such limited time, to make the evening stress free for all of us! "

"We really wanted a country band for our wedding and didn't think we'd be able to find one. After searching we came across Country Bound and immediately knew they were the band we wanted for our wedding. We weren't disappointed. The band were incredible! All of our guests had a great time and loved the music. I was surprised as not all of our guests like country as much as we do but Country Bound performed a lot of songs that everyone knows and loves. They made our wedding so special. Thank you Country Bound!"

"Absolutely incredible, Starlet Beat made the best day of our lives even better! Since our wedding a month ago we have continued to receive comments from guests about how brilliant the band were. Everyone was dancing for the whole night! Karen was great at communicating before the event, taking onboard all our suggestions and including them in either the band's set or DJ sets in-between. She offered to perform our first dance song and the band learnt and played it brilliantly. We were an hour late getting to the dancing from some overrunning speeches but the band were not only remarkably good natured about this they were also really accommodating, fitting the full sets in a shorter time so we still got the full amount, even though we expected to be cut short as it was us running late. We cannot thank you enough! The music was so well arranged and performed with brilliant back-to-back medleys and something for everyone; we didn't leave the dance floor while they were on! So glad we had the full 8-piece lineup too because it was so good. I can't gush enough about how brilliant they were and the wedding card we found when we got back from honeymoon was also such a sweet touch. Book them! You won't regret it. We are already trying to work out whether we can afford an anniversary party as an excuse to have them back...Thank you, thank you, thank you! xxx"
