Hi Louise & David, I hope you are enjoying your week so far. Thank you very much for your feedback for Fawsley Hall, Daventry on 09/09/2023 I am delighted with the feedback you have already sent in the e-mail, so no further feedback is required — what you’ve already written is perfect, so thank you again! I would like to express my gratitude for inviting me to perform at your wedding, and I send you my warmest wishes and best wishes for the future. Don’t hesitate to contact me if any of your family/friends need a saxophonist for their wedding, party or any other special occasion! All the best, Rory

"What an amazing band! I’ve heard bands which are great at the Scottish ceilidh stuff but not very good at any other styles. I’ve heard bands which are great at pop/rock/country/indie covers but couldn’t play a ceilidh dance to save their lives. You guys are amazing! You can play all the Scottish ceilidh stuff AND make it rocky AND play all these other styles from pop to rock to country to whatever! Amazing! "

"We have seen Graham and Kelly on 2 long cruises. They have a fantastic repertoire. Graham is a very accomplished guitarist and Kelly a lovely singer. They have given us some very memorable evenings on both cruises and we are looking forward to meeting them again on our next cruise."

I'm glad we went down so well. It was good to have a little crowd of dancers towards the end too! Graham

"I just wanted to send an email to say thank you so much to you and Eleanor for being at our event on Sunday. It really made the evening to have you there, I have been flooded with messages from people since to say how much they enjoyed hearing your music. I’m a music grad (clarinettist) myself and it was important to me to have live music there and it was honestly just perfect. Thank you. We are following you on social media because we want to come to a concert so are keeping an eye on your upcoming concert dates! Best wishes Sophie "

"Thank you so much. You were just fabulous on Saturday night and you definitely left the dance floor wanting more. You really made the party one to remember and would have no hesitation in booking you again. Sorry we didn’t get to say thank you on the night - like true professionals you left us to party on"

"Every Shrove Tuesday the Chaplaincy offers free pancakes to students, religious or not, in the main piazza. This is the 175th year of the University so I thought it necessary to pep up the distribution with a pianist and saxophonist. Rory rose to the occasion and his playing was superb in quality and rose above the noise of pancake distribution. Rory played throughout the period and long with the pianist raised the occasion our of the ordinary. He brought two saxophones and their different sounds added to the occasion. A providential find for which I am very pleased."

"Before the event Dave did everything possible to work with us and make sure that it all went without a hitch, which was much appreciated. He and the rest of his group were friendly and professional throughout, and our guests loved seeing the joy they so clearly get from what they do. We hadn’t tried jazz at our hotel before, but it went down really well and we received lots of great feedback."

"Ardverikie Ceilidh Band played for our 40th birthday (70 adults + 20 kids). They were brilliant. The caller gave clear instructions and plenty of encouragement and was undaunted by the chaos of a squad of kids. The fiddle playing and guitar were excellent, and the musicians had the judgement to know when to give the crowd a rest and mix in instrumental sets and songs. In short, they put on a great Ceilidh, are absolute professionals and their version of the song “the Queen of Argyle” made my night."

"Perfect background music but equally a real pleasure for those guests who are lovers of guitar music and really enjoyed lingering and listening."
