"Thank you to Jamie for my birthday party this last weekend. He was brilliant in getting all of my guests up on the dance floor and having a great time. His voice is unbelievable and I’m so pleased he could step in last minute and give me a night to remember. Thank you for making my party so amazing."

"Thank you so much for being able to accommodate us on the wedding of my son! What with atrocious weather causing extensive flooding that weekend and having to postpone the wedding from the Saturday night until the Sunday, we were more than grateful that the band was still willing and able to perform on the Sunday. Great music and excellent calling made the evening, with all participants thoroughly enjoying themselves - sometimes with a little over enthusiasm! I highly recommend this band to any future clients booking. The band were more than helpful - especially Jennie with all my questions and the band on the day were superb. "

"Thank you for playing at my birthday party – the group was great and I had a lot of really positive feedback from my friends. I certainly enjoyed it and Banish Misfortune really made my party go with a swing – exactly what I wanted!"

"The absolute best group you could ever have at your wedding. Lilac and Remko are musical masterminds and they helped our wedding be the biggest party in town. You have to book them! Lilac and Remko rock! Absolutely one of the highlights of our day was seeing a kick-ass 8 piece get the whole room dancing to our Motown-inspired playlist. They helped with curation to ensure we picked the right floor-fillers and chucked in a couple of modern classics and a vocal cameo from one of our guests in, too. We really can't recommend them enough. Everything was smooth and our day was honestly even better because of them."

"Fab. and Hungry Hill were FAB! Great musicians... and they know how to "work the crowd" and get everyone moving! Very impressed that Fabrizio took the time to visit our venue before the event and was easy going and didn't hesitate to play the songs we wanted to hear - very professional and reliable ... great guitarists and drummer... Thanks fellas! and no hesitation in recommending Hungry Hill"

"Mike and his band played for Martin’s 60th birthday barn dance. They made it a very special night full of lovely memories. Alan was a fab caller. Navigated us through the dances with humour and laughter. Alan was extremely helpful and empathetic towards one of our guests who is blind and called dances that she could join in without making it obvious to lots of guests. Many didn’t even realise she was not sighted. We had many comments from our guests who complimented the band on the accordion player (sorry I forgot your name) Mike the fiddle player and Alan our caller. A great trio and we really recommend them! Thank you guys! "

"The playing is very good and nothing here is standard fare. Crossing The Ocean is sure to please anyone looking for an album of Irish music that sounds a little different but is still firmly rooted in the tradition."
