"The party-goers - whether seasoned ceilidh dancers or first-timers - loved the band.  And they were professional, but also flexible and uncomplaining to deal with.  Thank you Black Velvet Band!"

"You're both lovely friendly people and really know how to get the party starting and the room rocking. I've been on a lot of cruises and you're by far the best entertainers I've ever seen. Its such a shame you're not on the Ambience World Cruise"

"Thank you so much to Kelly’s Heroes for performing at our wedding evening reception. They were friendly and helpful from the beginning of the booking process right through to after the wedding. All our guests loved them, they provided a great lively atmosphere, and encouraged everyone to get involved. We had guests who go to ceilidhs regularly, and some who had never been to one before. The ceilidh was suitable for everyone, and everyone said how much fun they had. One of the band members taught us the moves to a first dance ceilidh, which we then demonstrated so that everyone could get involved. It was a slower dance and an ideal start with to get everyone involved and comfortable with the dancing. We went for the six person band with two song sets and a ceilidh, and this was ideal for an evening do. Kelly’s Heroes played a great range of tunes which everyone enjoyed tapping along to even if they weren’t ready for a dance yet! We really hope to see them play again in the near future, and we definitely recommend them for events. "

"Hi Glen , you were amazing at my beautiful party last Sunday. A big thankyou to you and Paul for entertaining us all at my 70th birthday celebrations! You were wonderful, enjoyed by all. The weather was fantastic and you looked great sat up on your stage. Your repertoire was fab and like I said all my guests and my family thoroughly enjoyed listening to you! Some of us even had a little dance. I was so lucky with the weather, I get very emotional talking about it as I loved it so much and will remember it forever. I have listened to your cd's, they are brilliant! I will recomend you both to all my friends. I hope your journey home was ok and you didn't get stuck in any traffic. A big thankyou to you both, hope to see you gain sometime, lots of love Janet Duddle xxxx Sent from my iPad"

Kelly has a gorgeous voice which grabbed us immediately when choosing who we’d like to perform at our wedding (she did not disappoint!)
