Review Centre: Barn Dance Bands

"Hi Davie, Just a quick note to say thank you very much for playing at our wedding last month. We absolutely loved the music and the dancing, in particular the Cumberland Square 8, as did all our guests! It was great to you as part of the day and we will definitely recommend you wholeheartedly to others. We look forward to seeing The Shooglers at an event sometime soon!!! "

"We had a brilliant time! It was a very hot day and the band were very accommodating, adjusting the playing times and breaking up the dancing with songs. There were only 30 of us, but everyone danced and several people commented on the quality of the music. The band even played “Waltzing Matilda” for the Australian contingent, who all sang along! Thanks very much BVB for making my party so special."

"Booked them for my wedding reception Oct 2017. To be honest, they were really quite rude, especially Mick who led it. They arrived grumpy, ate loads of the food without asking, complained a lot, and one of them went around grabbing our guests to get them to dance. I don't consider myself fussy... but I expected more as a paying customer on my wedding day. Music was good to be fair though."

"Well, where do I start, was so easy to book an event with this band, contact via email - was always responded to, and very accommodating. The event went without a hitch. Very clear instructions throughout the evening. Would highly recommend."

"We just wanted to say a huge thank you for providing such an amazing Ceilidh at our wedding. We had so much fun all night and our guests absolutely loved it. Thank you for helping us fill the floor all night and encouraging everyone to join in and get involved regardless of whether they had been to a Ceilidh before. Everyone had a great night. Best wishes! "

"Kip and his band are brilliant, this is the second time we have booked them and we certainly weren’t disappointed. Super easy to book, with clear communication. Kip and his band managed the combination of small children and tipsy adults extremely well. We loved the special dance for us the bride and groom! All dances were different and fun. Highly recommend 👍🏼 "

"Energetic tunes and striking harmonica. Mat and the band have applied the best of their quality musicianship to this release and that quality is impeccably demonstrated."

"Kelly's were brilliant! They did 2 x3/4 hour sets plus extended encores, they really made our wedding reception go with a bang. A great mix of tunes. And songs. 10 out of 10."

"I just wanted to express our thanks for playing at our wedding reception on Friday. We loved the mix of traditional ceilidh and ceilidh covers you played, as well as the 80s music. Thanks too for joining in with our guests and taking time to speak to the children - it was much appreciated and made everyone feel part of the evening. We will certainly recommend you to everyone we know!"

"These guys were just great and made a special birthday really special. Just loved Mike’s amazing fiddle playing. They accommodated all our requests for Irish and Scottish music and were flexible around times which was great as lunch was later than anticipated. Would highly recommend."

"As brilliant as ever! The MCR ceilidh is an annual tradition and it would not be the same without FOB as the band. Thank you so much!"

"I just wanted to drop you a note to say how brilliant Dermot and Co. were on Saturday. Everyone had a fantastic time and even those who couldn't dance were laughing and joining in by clapping and cheering. It really was a great night and we have had alot of great feedback. In the next couple of months I am going to start work on next years diary (I need to forward plan a bit more next time!) and I will definitely be giving you a call to book Dermot again."
