"We wanted something a bit different than the standard "background music band" for our annual Christmas drinks party: Good Habits hit the spot perfectly. They did a mix of jazz, pop covers, originals and folk tunes that everyone enjoyed. They were supposed to be background music but by the end it turned into a mini concert as everyone just wanted to listen!"

"A “big thank you” to the band for a wonderful, memorable day that made our wedding day unforgettable! Everyone enjoyed the music and the dancing. Even the left footed miseries got up to have a go, driven by your music and the attitude of the band. Pete particularly loved “The Greenfields of France” and “The Tweed”. He’s been singing them for days, driving me crazy! We can’t think of any one else that would have made our day so wonderful, (except Rod Stewart in person for Sue!), so thank you once again. It would not have been the same without you all! We look forward to seeing you soon. Meanwhile, keep up the good work!"

"Rhillig were booked to play at the Local Heritage Grant event at Torre Abbey last month. They were fantastic and created the perfect ambience for the event. Their quality and style of playing was excellent, as well as their professionalism to work with. We wouldn't hesitate to book Rhillig for future events. Many Thanks."

"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."

"Thank you for playing at our awards, it was a real breeze working with you and I appreciate that you just came in and got sorted. Stargazers were great to work with they fulfilled the requirements for the awards ceremony perfectly. The live songs and their take on old classics really brought the event alive. The dance floor was packed when they started playing! Thank you for making it so easy to work with you."

"We hired Barn With Us for our wedding and they were incredible! We wanted Country music but with a bit of energy and excitement and Sound With Us delivered it perfectly. Very professional band who can read the room well and get everyone up dancing and change the dynamics at the right times. Not only do these guys show up and play like the truly talented musicians that they are, but they are also very easy to chat to and made all of the pre-arrangements easy, they even face-timed us a couple of days before the wedding to go over some details and check we were happy with what we had planned. It was a pleasure to have them with us on our big day and if you are considering hiring this band then do it...book them...you won't be disappointed! :)"

"I cannot fault this band in any way! We kept the ceilidh as a surprise for our wedding guests and it went down as well as we had hoped! The caller was excellent and all the guests engaged well and the dances were so fun and energetic. We have had so many compliments since our wedding about that and can't wait to see the professional photos because we know they will show just how much fun we had. The band then continued on for another hour playing covers of popular wedding songs which was also excellent. The band were very quick, efficient and professional, and the booking process, forms and numerous zoom calls made the whole thing very easy and stress-free. We really can't recommend this band enough!!"

"Just dropping a quick message to say a massive thank you to you and the band. They were AMAZING! We were running a little late with the food and they were so understanding and cool. Also I lost track of the amount of people who came over to me and said - This is the best wedding band I've ever seen/heard, WHERE did you find them? Seriously they blew us away, thank you so much!"

"A huge thank you to Tom and the Its No Reel band who were brilliantly superb from our first email to the last dance of our wedding. No query went unanswered nor late and Tom accommodated our every needs. It couldn't have been easier booking them and we knew just how good their ceilidh music was from their videos. Our families are frequent ceilidh dancers and they were very impressed by the music and calling and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Even those unknown to ceilidh dancing were happily enticed to the dance floor and taken through the steps. The ceilidh was one of the most fun parts of our wedding day and I'd highly recommend everyone to hire Its No Reel! Thank you very much for a fantastic end to our wedding day and we hope to see you again!"
