Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"Just wanted to write to say sincere thanks to you, Gerry and Mike for making our Burns Night so special last night. You created a fantastic and fun atmosphere with your talented playing, vocals and humour while your efforts to organise our dances were much appreciated and enthusiastically received by all. Numerous members of our gathering mentioned to me how much they enjoyed the band. That was also backed up by how ready people were to get up to take part in the dances. You all made the night great fun and memorable and I look forward to seeing you all again at any function in the future including our next Burns Night Supper. Best wishes for all your future events."

"Fantastic band, great voice, music was amazing and sounded like a five piece band. The set was banging and got everyone on the dance floor. Highly recommend and if I had another party I would book them again."

"All my friends and family that attended my 30th birthday thought the band sounded and looked fabulous. By the end of the night everyone was up dancing which looked fab as we were all dressed in 1920's attire with the band selecting songs inline with our theme."

"As we had competitors from all over the world who got involved in the Ceilidh dancing, this was a testament to the ease at which the band could instruct all the dances. Everyone was up all night and had a fantastic time."

"Thank you guys for last night! You made our wedding reception lively and fun, just as we wanted, and your rendition of Metallica's "nothing else matters" for our first dance was really impressive! Especially the guitar solo! Amazing, you guys are really skilled and talented. All our guests were raving about how good you were. Worth every penny, really genuine guys too, a pleasure to talk to xxx"

"Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio – Katherine’s 50th Birthday Ceilidh – April 2025 I booked Black Velvet Ceilidh Trio for my wife’s 50th Birthday barn dance. The booking process and communication was great. On the night, from the off, everyone was up dancing. The instructions were great and they really got us all into the spirit. Lots of comments from our friends about how good they were. Thanks to all for an amazing night of music and dance. Would definitely recommend."
