"Debbie and I would like to say a massive thank you for everything on Saturday. You played such a big part making the day so special. We had so many great comments about both your acoustic set and the full band set saying how amazing you were. I have a few recordings being sent to me and will share a few with you when we're back from honeymoon next week. Thanks again and please thank your drummer and bass player again for us too. Hopefully see you soon. Thanks again! Andy & Debbie"

"A huge thanks to The Shooglers for a fantastic evening at Ross Priory for Kathryn's 50th Birthday Ceilidh. The band were fantastic and got everyone up dancing from the bairns ( The "Duracell Baby" 18-month-old Ava) to the adults (80+ year old gran) in what was a memorable night for our family and friends. The pattern was good, the ceilidh music was great and Pink Floyd's "The Wall" during A Dashing White Sergeant is STILL being talked about. Thanks for a great gig guys and would highly recommend for a booking...why would you choose anyone other than The Rockiest Ceilidh band in the World? "

"I first saw LickSquid at a friends 30th and instantly knew I needed them at our wedding.....a month later. I contacted LickSquid on Facebook and Dan quickly replied. After giving Dan the date of the wedding they went away and looked at their schedules. Dan got back to me that day and said they could move some things about and would be happy to do it. As I already had a DJ I asked Licksquid if they would do one 45 minute set and an encore. Licksquid duly agreed and even asked me what song list I wanted. As I had seen Licksquid a week or so before I completely trusted them and told them to play what they wished. On the night Licksquid set up without me even knowing. The guys were so lovely and professional. They started their set and the music was amazing. The dance floor was packed and everyone loved them. I can honestly say the wedding would not have been the same without them. They brought a brilliant atmosphere and the whole process of booking, and communication with Licksquid was completely stress free. I would definitely book these guys again for future events. Thank you LickSquid!"

"Please can you thank Rory and the band for me as I didn't have chance to thank them personally yesterday... They were tremendous, and several people commented on how it just added the perfect finishing touch to the day. Hindley Hall have also asked for your details and I will pass them on. They were also very impressed with the musicians."

"Hi Rory, Was a pleasure to meet you and I loved the band. Just wish I could have stayed longer and had a bunch of my dancers and Latin music fans with me to also enjoy! I'll definitely bear you guys in mind when we need a Latin Band. :-) Regards, Shahid - Salsa Buena."

"Wow where do we begin! Stargazers played at our wedding last Saturday and they honestly helped make the day perfect! From dealing with Rhona by email/ phone before the big day to their performance they were all so professional and helpful and were happy to adapt to exactly what you want. Their set list is incredible and their talent is even better! They are so tight as a band and feel the vibe of the room making changes in the moment to keep everyone up and dancing! We also had an acoustic set in the afternoon which we would also highly recommend, they set the scene for a great day and we would suggest anyone looking for a band for any occasion should go for these guys!"

"Honestly, you got the atmosphere so perfect. We couldn’t have been more pleased with how it all went on the roof … my only regret is not having more time!!! Everything was literally better than we imagined so thank you for this (it’s always nerve racking when you have never seen a band in real life before!) "

"Just a quick e-mail to thank you for performing at my 50th Birthday Party on Saturday. With all events we were a little worried but clearly had no need to be. All went smoothly and you were an excellent addition to our celebrations. You both really made the night and a large number of people commented on how good you were, you were fantastic! Many thanks again, and will be in touch when I am 60!"

"Thanks so much, we are so pleased that we selected you guys for the party – the band did a fantastic job and made it a night to always remember. They were so tight and such a great bunch of blokes too. We had so many comments about what a great band they were and many people asked how we found you. Our little boys, also now have new heroes! Little Jacob has now built a foot pedal to go with his plastic guitar. We really appreciate how great (and patient) the band were with them as they set up. Yes, it was greatly enjoyable building the playlists, thanks so much for your support with this. Our next long car journey to see family miles away should be a lot of fun. The photos you shared are fantastic. It was very thoughtful and kind of Jay to arrange the group shot which gives us a lasting visual memory. The band shots are a great surprise and are completely awesome! We will have to put in a frame alongside the set list they left behind!"

"Mary V & The Party Grooves performed at our wedding at the Beach House, Jersey Island in August and she brought a magical and personal touch to the songs they played. Her smooth, sexy, but unique voice is truly inspirational. Mary is highly professional and very talented."
