"Having previously seen Rosy at a number of South Wales venues, imagine my delight to discover my sister had booked this fabulous all rounder to play at her wedding! Rosy has the superb ability to capture a room and its occupants with her beautiful voice and well planned out sets. Whether playing at a raucous live music venue, country/folk festival or private event Rosy seems to effortlessly charm the crowd and play music to suit all attending."

"We hired Charlotte for my Mum's 80th birthday party barn dance in Worthing on Saturday. It was a great evening with live music from Charlotte and Richard (fiddle, banjo, accordion). Not everybody got up to dance but you'll always get that. For those that did we had a very entertaining evening with lots of laughter and my Mum loved it."

"Edinburgh Ceilidh Trio have played for us at two fundraising ceilidhs and we hope they will again. They're fantastic musicians and their expert calling made sure everyone knew exactly what they were doing. We've got absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a brilliant, fun evening!"

"What a find! The Blue Jewel Celidh Band were just amazing. We are a charity and had organized a St Patrick's Day Barn Dance and are truely grateful to the band for stepping in at the last minute. The whole evening was joyous with a great party feel to it. Everyone danced from children and young people to grandparents. The caller and the musicians were enthusiastic and extremely competent. There was a great atmosphere and buzz everyone had a great time and were asking when was the next one! A big THANK YOU to the Blue Jewel Celidh band."

"I booked John to sing at my 40th birthday BBQ and he completely exceeded my expectations. He took requests from all my guests and sang everybody's favourite songs. He even did some Disney for my neice. After his set he stayed for some food and fitted in like part of the family. We enjoyed his cheeky personality as much as his music and if i'm completely honest I think I have developed a bit of a crush. HAHA!"

"We hired the Edinburgh Ceilidh Trio for our wedding and they were fantastic, we had 3 hours of playing and I don't think the dance floor was empty once. They were great at explaining the dances to the guests, allowing them to quickly learn the dances and have a go. Many of the guests - most of which had never done a ceilidh before - all reported how much fun they had. "

"Blue Jewel were brilliant at our fundraising Ceilidh for Ukrainian Action. They filled Hunts Cider Barn with vigorous, happy dancers and we'll certainly want them again for any similar events in future."

"These guys did all the music at Douglas and Helen’s wedding on Saturday - any band who can convincingly slip a Pink Floyd cover into a round of the dashing white sergeant definitely get my vote - please check them out folks! "

"Thanks you so much The Shooglers for playing at our wedding in April. I booked you after receiving a recommendation from the bass player of my own band. He was at a function you guys were playing at last year and he raved about you so much I was really glad you were able to play for us. There were guests from Canada, Dublin and New Zealand at our wedding and they were all joining in and everyone had a superb night. I especially enjoyed how you blended in rock and pop tunes with some of the Ceilidh dances. I will definitely recommend you guys to anyone I can and if I organize another bash in the future I'll be looking The Shoogle up! Thanks so much on behalf of my new wife Wendy and myself. "

"The band really made it a great night! Mick, just want to say a huge thank you to the three of you for yesterday (9th March 2019 Saturday (trio) Brouge Pub, 241 Hampton Road, Twickenham, TW2 5NJ). My mum absolutely loved it and I've had a lot of messages about how much our guests enjoyed it. Will write up a proper testimonial and email over when I get a chance" Ruari Phillips 10th March 2019 ... "Mick and the band were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. When they arrived they had to make do with a slightly smaller area than originally expected but there were no complaints and they just got on with it and put on a brilliant performance, everyone who attended the party commented that the band really made it a great night!"

"I just wanted to send you a message to say how fantastic Alba Ceilidh Band were at our party on Saturday night - a large number of our guests (quite a lot of whom are musicians) commented on how good the band were. And they couldn't have been friendlier or more accommodating with the way the evening ran. Thanks again - we would definitely recommend this band to friends and family."
