"Hiring this band for our party was the best decision! They are seriously talented and know exactly how to throw a good time. The energy was non-stop, and everyone had an absolute blast dancing all night. Total crowd-pleasers.""

"Kellys Heroes, I cannot thank you enough for the most fantastic night I think I might have had in all my fifty years! I have not stopped smiling since. A dream come true for me to have Kellys playing in my garden and as the song goes- You couldn't have come at a better time!!"

"Rastrum played for our Burns Night at the University of York last week and it was one of the most successful student events we've had in months! It was the perfect setting for students to relax and have fun with old and new friends. The atmosphere was just buzzing and we've already had requests from students asking to do this again. The band were flexible with our venue change and were generous with the dances. The caller was very clear and warm which made the evening incredibly inclusive, especially as over 100 of our students had no idea what a ceilidh was at the start of the evening! So by popular demand I think we'll be getting a ceilidh booked in again very soon. And last but not least, the band play together perfectly and the tunes they chose were brilliant. "

"Thank you The Northern Reel Collective for a great ceilidh to top off a great day at our fundraising event. We were itching at the bit to dance and you got feet tapping from the start - even during your little sound check. Mike was excellent at calling and so good that even my other half felt confident to get up! As we said to you as you were packing up, we'll definitely be buying tickets for Hogmanay. See you again soon. "

"For 13 years I have coordinated highly successful ceilidh dances in Bishopbriggs High School and now the new Bishopbriggs Academy. These Christmas dances are the culmination of 3 weeks of social dance with all year groups and it it a priority of mine that we have live music to create an upbeat atmosphere. I consider it part of my job to ensure these traditional dances are taught in school in a way pupils will enjoy and will perpetuate. This year I secured the services of The Shooglers for our S5/6 dance. The evening was a fantastic success and enjoyed immensely by pupils and staff alike. The band worked a perfect blend of traditional Scottish dance tunes with contemporary music the pupils are familiar with, which heightened their participation in – and positive attitude to – “social dancing”. I have already asked the band to perform at next year’s S5/6 dance in the school. I know it will be a special occasion. I recommend The Shooglers unreservedly to anyone hosting school dances, weddings or any kind of function. "

"Just to say thank you to the band and Steve (caller) for your support. Everyone enjoyed themselves and Steve certainly had no problems keeping the floor full. Well done to you all and many thanks once again."

"Hi Davie, We would like to thank you again for playing at our wedding last week - the ceilidh was incredible! We had an amazing time and our guests had an amazing time too. We were impressed with how The Shooglers enthused the many German guests with the spirit of ceilidh dancing, even though none of them had ever seen anything like it before! So many of our guests mentioned to us afterwards how much fun they had at the ceilidh too so many, many thanks! You guys are great! "

"Thanks so much for doing the Ceilidh Everyone said they really enjoyed it and it was a first for most of them, they had so much fun and laughed a lot You were amazing turning up on time, setting up and playing, leaving me free to get the hall organised and enjoy my big day! I felt bad that I hardly spoke with you lot, you did a wonderful job I think you will get a booking or 2 from the event when a special birthday comes up, they’re all wanting to do it again Once again thanks to you and the band Xx "
