Review Centre: Gypsy Swing Bands

"The band were fantastic on the night and a joy to deal with throughout. They really delivered in line with expectations for what was an ambitious and high profile event for our club. Talented musicians that were great to observe and enjoy from a seated position and equally from the dance floor which spilled over on more than one occasion. Great to bring the New Year with these guys and gals on stage. Many many thanks."

"They arrived promptly, set up without any fuss, played two brilliant sets , were very generous with their time and got everyone dancing. Mike called the dances clearly and gave people chance to have a quick practice. Mike encouraged everyone and the dance floor never emptied. The band really helped make the wedding very special. "

"We booked Black Velvet Band Ceilidh Trio for a sixtieth birthday party. Very much a family event, so all ages including children, who particularly enjoyed it, although everyone had a really great time. One of the parents told me that her little one has decided that a ceilidh is the very best kind of birthday party, so the bar was set high for all future birthdays there! A few people knew the dances already, but most didn’t, and our caller guided us through each dance so that everyone could join in the fun! The atmosphere was lovely, and the musicians were impressive, plus really lovely people who were accommodating, helpful and great fun. I would definitely recommend them; they were fantastic, and the whole evening was an absolute joy. The only thing now is to find a good reason to do it all again!"

"We cannot speak highly enough of Elliot and the band who played at our wedding. Organising, booking and liaising with them was a complete pleasure and they accommodated our needs to the finest detail. Their repertoire was upbeat, yet relaxed and their flexibility to adjust to the mood of the evening and crowd was superb. We have received rave reviews of the band from our friends and family who loved the cheerful music and entertainment. We can’t recommend them enough!"

"Hi Tom, I just wanted to write to thank you so much for coming to play yesterday at my 40th party. We really enjoyed the music, it really gave the event a great atmosphere, and it was real treat to have a dance to a live band for the first time in ages! "

"I had the Misophone Collective to play my wedding a couple of weeks back, and they were sensational! The multi-instrumentalist singer they provided in particular was an incredible showman. We would highly recommend them."

"The jazz band proved to be a huge hit at the event. A number of our guests came up to us at the end of the evening and commented on how great the music was. Thanks for the fabulous work guys! We will definately be using you again in the future!!"

I'm glad we went down so well. It was good to have a little crowd of dancers towards the end too! Graham

"My legs are still aching because I danced so much! The band arrived on time and were very friendly and helpful and the music was delightful. It was a mixed crowd, many of whom had never met each other before but with one thing in common – they had never done ceilidh dancing before! The caller was absolutely brilliant – it didn’t matter that most people had no idea how to dance the reels! Everyone joined in and thoroughly enjoyed themselves."
