"It's No' Reel performed at our wedding at the Albert Halls in Stirling in November. After hearing such great things about them, we actually changed the date of our wedding to ensure they would be free to play! They didn't disappoint on the day. With a mixture of Scottish, English and international guests we thought we would have some ceilidh followed by a disco, but in the end everyone was having such a good time that we just kept on with the ceilidh. From my seven year old nephew to an octogenarian great-aunt, everyone was up dancing all the time. And once the day was over we had a really fun Go Pro video to watch back. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend It's No' Reel to anyone wanting a memorable evening."

"Dahlia Music performed at our wedding. The music was very special for us, and our guests also commented how much they enjoyed the string quartet (including many guests who are not usually fans of classical music). Dahlia were very organised in the run-up to the day, responding to our emails quickly. Their website was very helpful, but when we had questions they talked us through their repertoire. We asked for a few songs that they did not have in their existing repertoire -- no problem, they sourced the music and played it perfectly. Dahlia were warm, friendly, and professional at all times. They arrived with plenty of time to set up, were very smartly dressed, and fit seamlessly into the day. We would recommend them to anyone who wants a very special addition to their wedding (or other event)."

"We hired W!red for an 80`s themed 50th birthday party. They were outstanding in all respects. Sue has got a sensational voice and she created a great buzz in the room. We have had so many compliments on the band. W!red were great to deal with. They had a really wide choice of songs, and put together a set list that started the evening with a bang and really kept the energy high. They even helped us out with some impromptu karaoke and Sue was great keeping the singers on track. Communication and organisation were brilliant. booking was really easy and everything was very clear, they were quick to respond and did exactly what they said they would do. We can’t wait to find another excuse to book them."

"The Spinettes were booked by the residents at Harleston House for a musical event that they had planned for Dementia Awareness Week. The girls were very warm and friendly with their performance but remained professional performers throughout. The music and the selection of songs for our client group was spot on, its not easy to keep people with Dementia engaged but they managed very well. It was lovely that when they finished their show the girls took the time in going round chatting to the residents and their relatives this was a lovely thing to do. The residents are still talking about it and they all said what a lovely time they had together. I have been requested to book them again and I have no problem with recommending this group and their manager for any event that requires this style of entertainment."

"‘Kitty Galactic’ played for us at our fundraising party for CLIC Sargent. They were amazing. From the first enquiry and during the build up, nothing was too much trouble, they came back really quickly when we contacted them and even gave ideas to help us run the night. They were totally supportive of our charity event. On the night they were punctual, efficient in setting up and happy to change their playing sets to go with the changing flow and timing of events. Everyone who came to the party loved the band. There performances were brilliant. They had people joining in and dancing all the way through! Many of the guests asked when they would be playing next. Thanks guys, you helped make our party a success! We managed to raise a huge amount of money! "

"Many thanks to Kelly & Graham of ‘It takes 2’ It was an absolute pleasure to meet Kelly & Graham of It Takes 2 last night Afan Tavern Cwmavon With years of experience this duo kept the night alive with a mixture of upbeat songs ranging from 50,s to current top hits of rock, pop & country music, all of which kept the crowd dancing who thoroughly enjoyed! Kelly’s vocals & personality lit up the room along with Graham’s vast musical experience which he made playing the electric guitar look so easy! This is such a friendly talented duo who is accomodating to requests and you can rely on for a good time! Good luck in 2024 Kelly & Graham! We look forward to seeing you again soon! Terry & Lyndon ???❤️xx"
