"Black Velvet ceilidh band played at my daughter’s wedding on Saturday. Please let them know how excellent they were, and the evening was a great success greatly helped by the excellent calling, music and dancing. I have had lots of good comments from guests and would recommend them to anybody."

"You guys were really fantastic and made the whole evening so much fun. Everyone loved the music, you got everyone going and you were exactly what we had hoped for when booking. I’d be more than happy to book you again and recommend you to anyone who asks. Thanks again."

"I was so happy to book Two Left Feet who were able to come to the rescue 1 week before my mums surprise 60th. The music MADE the party! If you’re in doubt about having live music, just go for it. Every single person joined in and danced the night away, everyone saying how much fun they had as having a ceilidh band doesn’t happen very often. It was super special, the band were very easy to communicate with and were happy to accommodate all my requests about making it a surprise and staying hidden from my mum! Thank you thank you! "

It was a pleasure. Many thanks for booking us for your mum’s surprise party. Regards, Two Left Feet Ceilidh Band

"The Haystacks are AMAZING! We hired the band for a western themed work party and from the second the band came on the dance floor was full!! Great selection of songs, not only the classics but their take on current music too! Everyone who came agreed the band made the evening. Don't hesitate, they are great - thank you Rachel :)"

"Great band. A professional, experienced team of performers as well as friendly and helpful through out. Barn With Us were a perfect choice for our Country and Western themed community carnival. A real pleasure to work with."

"Dermot added something truly special to a difficult day, being my mother-in-law's funeral, but a combination of his professionalism, artistry and sensitivity made a deep impression on everyone there. On top of that, the speed with which Sarah-Jane arranged things with Dermot at very short notice helped enormously in smoothing the arrangements for the whole day. Thank you!"

"I must start by saying that both my sister and I realised we failed to formally thank you and your wonderful band for a perfect night last weekend. We both regret this enormously and I only hope you could see through the night what a perfect contribution your band made to it We have had lovely feedback from guests and the staff at the venue said it was one of the best party's they had ever hosted. There is no doubt that a big reason for this was down to Craigi. The music was great. Everything we had hoped and more. Please pass on my thanks to your excellent band members and of course special thanks to you. It was lovely to have you all there from the start and your playing really added to the happy atmosphere. I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope very much that I will get to dance to your music again soon. "

"From our very first emails to the sweaty (from all of us) hugs at the end of our night, Oscar and Barney were nothing short of wonderful. Not only are their musical talents just completely and ridiculously incredible, they were always so kind and encouraging - with nothing too much trouble and keen to take on whatever request we made! Playing as a duo immediately after our wedding ceremony and with their band as we danced into the night, Barney and Oscar have given us the gift of memories to treasure soundtracked by their amazing music. We cannot thank them, or recommend them highly enough. ♥️🍀"

"What an amazing evening of live ceilidh music. The group were a hit with people of all ages and everyone in the room was up dancing! We have had wonderful comments about the music and the superb calling. I have even had a request for the details so a birthday party can be booked in plenty of time! A huge thank you for reading the room and providing an awesome service!"

"The Shooglers delivered a fun and lively ceilidh and dealt with some organisational glitches on our side very professionally and without complaint. Our timings had drifted badly and the disco we had booked took all the space we had reserved for The Shooglers. The band was very professional, and flexible and set up at the other end of the marquee and delivered a very professional, fun ceilidh. "
