"I just wanted to write to say thank you so very much for your wonderful performance on Friday! I’m sure you were aware just how much our members enjoyed themselves. The question “can you get them back?” was repeated to me countless times and I promised I would pass on the members appreciation."

"Martin provided a wonder performance and adapted well with the requests that were asked of him - he also extended his performance time which was wonderful for us. If we were looking for a performer again we would definitely re-book Martin"

"Omg never been so nervous in my life, the boys will always mean a lot to me, a moment I’ll never forget, I proposed to my fiancée on south bank in the freezing cold, the boys pretended to busk then when we walked past started playing our song ‘iris’ by the Goo Goo Dolls, luckily she said yes, thank you so much again guys, when we set a date, you’ll be getting a call"

"Thank you all so much for playing for our son’s wedding -  we have received so many complements on your playing and Jill’s calling. Even people who did not want to take part in the dancing said that they so enjoyed watching and listening to the music. Basically you wore most people out and they definitely faded when the disco came on, but we soldiered on until midnight! "

"Ben is an incredibly talented musician. Our venue was too small for the full band so Ben played at the Church and at the drinks reception alone. He composed a piece of music for us, and guests came up to us throughout the evening and even the day afterwards to tell us how moving the music was and how interesting and accommodating Ben was when asked questions about his unusual looking equipment! We loved him so much we immediately booked him to play at our next event. Highly recommend. "

"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – International Student’s Ceilidh – July 2025 This is the second time we have booked the Black Velvet Band for our summer ceilidh, and it was such fun! The band ran two different dancing sessions for our international students and were very patient with explaining the dances and encouraging all students to participate. The music was brilliant and energetic, and all three band members were so kind and even paused for a photoshoot with the students. We are looking forward to next summer already. I’d absolutely recommend them for any event/party/celebration!"

"Vintage Sister Harmony were always my top band to ask for the night and I’m so glad they were available. They got everyone dancing without being too loud that people were deafened. My personal recommendation for any-one wanting lovely acoustic music, with singing that can also pack a punch!"

"Carl and I were honoured to have you perform at our wedding at Stockwith Mill. Wow! We couldn’t have picked anyone better and more fitting and you were a massive contributor to our perfect day. The cover of Home for our first dance was amazing and better than I would have ever imagined, I have played it over and over. So many of our guests complimented on how amazing you were. I would recommend you to anyone and everyone. Your voice is unique and I can’t thank you enough for making our day perfect. Mr and Mrs Hughes"

"Can I just say that you have been a delight to deal with – some of the other bands have not responded or acknowledged anything that I have sent and as an event organiser I genuinely appreciate the time you take to acknowledge and respond. It is most reassuring."
