"A wonderful band. The caller was great and made everyone feel very comfortable. A wonderful evening for the whole family and friends ranging from 3 year olds to 80 year olds. Everyone could join in. Turned up on time and very polite nice lads. Would highly recommend."

"Tila died in May last year, she told me what she wanted to do for her 60th. I decided to put her birthday on for her, the first thing to do was find a band, I asked around looked on social media, someone said to me have you seen Prairie Moon. I looked them up, listened to there songs and straight away I knew this was the band for Tila. I contacted them and Sarah replied told me how much and I said yes pretty much straight away. Sarah contacted me again and asked if there was anything special they could do for Tila, I asked if they wouldn’t mind singing a couple of her favourite songs. They didn’t know these songs but they both learned them especially for Tila. Everyone was so excited and they went down a storm, they were brilliant, singing Tila’s songs brought lots of memories back and it was very much appreciated. I hope to see them both soon and we are already keeping in touch with them. Book Prairie Moon you will have a fab night and you will not regret it."

Thank you Fiona for inviting us to play at this very special event. We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed learning those new songs. It was great to see people up and dancing, and I am sure from what we learned from you and her family that Tila would have been up and doing so too! Thank you again and stay in touch.

"Thanks very much for a fantastic ceilidh for my birthday party. The music sounded great, and you managed to build a really good atmosphere where people felt relaxed about joining in with the dancing, and almost everybody did! "

"I booked Unwritten Duo for a memorial event last Christmas and she provided the perfect backdrop to the evening. She was uplifting, yet soulful the perfect mix for such an event. We're delighted to book her again for future events."

"Excellent service from ‘last minute musicians ‘ very friendly and efficient. Expensive service however! Our band ‘Northern Ceilidh’ were excellent too, a superb range of music and dances all ‘called’ clearly and sympathetically particularly with our varied group. I would certainly book them again no hesitations. Thank you all very much."

"These guys are amazing. They did our wedding for us recently and were so helpful with the initial postponement, moving venues and then all the last minute changes with the current rules. Claire has a fabulous voice and the band definitely made the evening for us, everyone had a fantastic time. We had the 4 piece and this was brilliant and just what we wanted but they can do other smaller formats too for less space or a different vibe. I would 100% recommend them and would book again for any party we have in future without hesitation. I looked at a lot of bands online when planning the wedding two years ago and I'm so pleased I picked this one :)"

"We booked Amy and Steve for our wedding after falling in love with their music at a performance in Tugby. We were truly blown away by their gorgeous voices and talent. It was the best choice we made by far! Both Amy and Steve were so accommodating throughout my manic wedding planning and ensured everything was perfect and set for the day. I honestly couldn’t recommend this lovely couple more. Our day was completed by their performance and presence! This was acknowledged all our guests! Thank you both so so much for creating the perfect setting for our perfect day. You truly were incredible! We can’t wait to come to your next gig!"

"My wife and I booked The Mighty Craic full band for our joint 40th birthday party. Josh was a pleasure to deal with in terms of the arrangements etc and when the big night came the band absolutely stormed it for us. I'd been keen to find a band that would have a broad appeal as we would have family and friends of all ages celebrating with us. The band treated us to a perfectly judged mix of popular irish songs and contemporary pop hits done The Mighty Craic's style. If you want a tight, professional, really entertaining irish band for your party then you've found them. Guaranteed to get your guests dancing, smiling and singing along. Top craic! "

"Kellys Heroes performed a Ceilidh and played some of their amazing songs at our wedding in March 2019. We had previously seen them perform in Nottingham at the City Arts Folk Proms, and had initially only intended to have a Ceilidh, though after hearing Tony's vocals, we knew that our wedding guests would love to hear them as well! The entire band are so friendly, helpful and accommodating, and were amazing at our wedding. We highly recommend you to book Kellys Heroes for any events you may have - they will not disappoint! Everyone loved them at our wedding, and are still talking about them!"

"I run a venue which hosts parties and promotional events for the alcohol and beverages industry. Mozel Tov Cocktails played at our celebration of the end of Prohibition. They did a stomping set well suited the event, and even mixed in some live electro-swing which went down a storm with the clients. We liked them so much we booked them again a few months later for the Glasgow Art School Archetects graduation ball. If you like totally authentic gypsy jazz and swing as well as bit of klezmer this is your band. In a nutshell: fun, dedicated, authentic virtuosic professionals."

"The Shooglers were real stars at our wedding in Lochgoilhead in October. They performed a perfect mix of ceilidh and rock covers, sometimes in the same dance! It really had everyone up on the dance floor for most of the evening. Afterwards everyone wanted to know where we'd got them from including the venue co-ordinator who sees bands every week. Most of all, they have a great sense of humour - they realise it's all about everyone having a great time. Thanks again guys, you were awesome. "
