"kibitz were sensational. Their energy and musicianship were highly impressive and they got everyone dancing, they were also extremely polite and professional. We couldn't possibly have wished for a better band for my husband's birthday. Hire this band! X "

"The Session Band were absolutely incredible at our wedding! We had Ceri and Cam play acoustic guitars during the ceremony and the full band in the evening, and what a party it was! We sang, we danced, we laughed, we loved this band! Every member is so talented and brought such amazing energy and fun, which really added to our celebrations! Thank you for giving our day that extra sparkle, you are all truly amazing people!"

"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. "

"These guys are the real deal, they made our night. All my favourite tunes, they were so good! Never heard a band play Prince so well. I loved the dancing and the energy they had on stage and the way they got the audience involved. We wanted a band with a classy look to fit the theme of the night, they looked amazing really added to the vibe."

"Our music evening at Novotel Manchester Centre was elevated by the Rory Duffy Trio. Their talent and skill made for an entirely lovely evening for all of our guests, many of whom commented on how much they enjoyed the performance. I would highly recommend this group again as they were not only talented and played wonderful music but also displayed a high level of professionalism throughout the evening.” - Novotel, Manchester, June 2011"

"Thank you so much, they were brilliant and such nice people. I did speak with several others prior to booking, but went with juma because they were competitive and you were the most helpfull person I spoke with. You advised on how many band members I would need, how it would work and generally made me confident about choosing you. I will most definitely use you again and will always recommend you. Thank you for a great day x "

"Oh my goodness if I could give The Cheers 1000/10 I so would! We hired them to play an acoustic set during our welcome drinks at our wedding and the live party sets for the evening bash and they were absolutely fabulous. We were literally blown away and they were everything we hoped for and exceeded our expectations. The acoustic set was perfect jazzy modern soulful and really a wonderful backdrop to canapés and fizz. Everyone loved it and I would really recommend opting for this. It sets the day off to such a lovely start. I liased with Ben before hand and he also put together a wonderful dinner playlist. And then the party really started! The bands vocals are amazing and they really get the crowd going! So much so we actually BROKE the dance floor at the venue! Song after song after song was a belter. They were just amazing! They also managed the play list of music between sets and it was perfect. Everyone young and old was up on the dance floor. We have had so many comments about how fantastic the band were. Also I found Ben and the band so professional personable and delightful to have around on the day. Really genuine passionate people. I want to do it all again! Booking The Cheers was one of the best decisions we made and they absolutely nailed the music! Thanks so much guys! "

"Amy was a pleasure to deal with, both over email before our wedding and on the day itself. We gave her a list of our favourite songs and she let us know which ones she could do. Amy mixed these songs in with a selection of other songs and checked the overall list with us beforehand. Everyone at the wedding thoroughly enjoyed the performance. We would definitely recommend Amy to anyone doing a wedding - she is a fantastic singer and a lovely person. Thank you Amy!"
