"The Northern Ceilidh band performed at our wedding reception and were fabulous! Jon and the others are extremely talented musicians, and Joyce an experienced and engaging caller. The dance floor for the ceilidh was full from start to finish, and our guests had so much fun. Prior to the wedding, Jon and Joyce went to the trouble of videoing a sequence for us so that we could practice a ‘first dance’ with friends. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Wonderful people, wonderful musicians and a wonderful night of dancing. If you’re looking for a fantastic Ceilidh band, look no further! "

"I booked Charlie, Fred and Tom as a three-piece for my wedding and I can not be more delighted! From the minute they started right to the end there were people on the dance floor- many of them who had never ceilidh danced before. They explained the dances really well and were very patient for those that needed a bitty longer to get the hang of it. All of my guests commented on how wonderful the band were- even those that were unable to join in the dancing felt included. If you are looking for a traditional ceilidh band who has the experience to read the room well and get the crowd moving then you have most definitely found it."

"It’s No' Reel Scottish Ceilidh Band was absolutely amazing. My husband is Scottish and I am Venezuelan so we wanted to have a mix of both worlds, half ceilidh and half merengue/salsa. The band was very flexible and happy to alternate with the salsa sessions! They were great and on board with the idea! Organizing and coordinating with the band was very easy and they were great helped when choosing the first dance! We went for the four piece band and it truly was phenomenal, they made everyone feel comfortable and were amazing with the directions for both the Scottish and International (both from America, Venezuela and the States and Europe). Everyone enjoyed themselves and kept saying how amazing the band was months after!! Definitely recommend them!"

"A huge thanks to The Shooglers for a fantastic evening at Ross Priory for Kathryn's 50th Birthday Ceilidh. The band were fantastic and got everyone up dancing from the bairns ( The "Duracell Baby" 18-month-old Ava) to the adults (80+ year old gran) in what was a memorable night for our family and friends. The pattern was good, the ceilidh music was great and Pink Floyd's "The Wall" during A Dashing White Sergeant is STILL being talked about. Thanks for a great gig guys and would highly recommend for a booking...why would you choose anyone other than The Rockiest Ceilidh band in the World? "
