"Open Freeway were absolutely fantastic. They honestly made our wedding day. Communication was excellent throughout and they really took time to listen to us and give suggestions for the day, all of which were spot on. They were really flexible and even did us an acoustic set outside to kick the music off as the weather was nice and we had a festival-themed wedding. I was soooo impressed on the day, every song was played brilliantly and our guests were raving about the music. They played such a great range of songs and made the sets really fun for everyone. The dance floor was full all night. On top of all of that, they were all just so lovely and such a joy to have as part of the day. We could not fault them and would recommend them to anyone. I cannot thank you guys enough for how amazing you were! "

"Dear Davie and all the Band, Just to say the very biggest of THANK YOU for Saturday night - you were just brilliant, everything and more that we could have wanted from our wedding band, and we have had so many comments and compliments from everyone who was there about you - I have a feeling many of them will remember when organising their future events as you guys just take ceilidh to a whole new level... We had an absolute ball reeling our way around, especially for 'Another Brick in the Dashing White Sergeant', and the Cumberland reel was utterly Epic - not one we had in fact danced before but definitely the best of the night!! And had so much fun with the rock side - all the family were up and going for their favourites. Hope you had fun and managed to squeeze in a bacon roll and some cake - and a beer or two!! Thanks again! "

"Thank you for your lovely performance, the evening was great!!! You were right, the wind & cold brought everyone into the barn to dance, chat & listen to your music!! Compliments from everyone, they loved your music, commented on how good it was to hear a really good live band! The sound was excellent, the caller was approachable, friendly & encouraging. Please do thank all your musicians, the caller & Remko for making the night such a success. And thank you to you for listening to what I requested & giving us all a most entertaining evening. I do wish you well with all your future plans for ‘Barn With Us’. With my good wishes! Penelope "

"Just a quick, and rather late, note to say a very Big Thank You to you and the team for the wonderful Saturday evening that you provided. We had an absolutely amazing time, and lots of the guests have said that they did too. We were really delighted to see so many people dancing, I don't think that anyone was able to restrain themselves. It was just a pity that the whole evening had to come to an end."

"A huge thank you to you for your entertainment last Friday evening, and for staying for that extra half an hour. All our guests had a fantastic evening and were very complimentary about your singing and guitar playing, which personally I think was outstanding."

"The new fox band was utterly brilliant! I have been to a few weddings with ceilidhs, and I can happily say that thanks to the new fox band, ours was the best! At the start of the night a few guests were unsure about it, or felt embarrassed or awkward, but thanks you the warm and gentle encouragement, and the clear and easy to follow calling by the band, after their first swing, most people were hooked, and by the end of the night everyone was talking about how much fun they had. To top it all off, they sound bloomin marvelous too! Thanks new fox band, for making it a night to remember ?"

"For our wedding, we selected Iron Broo's Duo package and were blown away by the performance. Many wedding guests mentioned how much fun they had, especially some of our Northumbrian relatives who have never ceilidh danced before! The ceilidh dancing and DJ set were the perfect ending to our wedding and we made so many happy memories. We cannot thank Charlie and the band enough for making the day feel so special. We would highly recommend Iron Broo to anyone looking for a ceilidh band."

"I booked Good Habits for my 40th boat birthday party after hearing them play at the Green Note in Camden. I always loved the cello and accordion, but what I like best of them is their songs and energy. They really set the tone for what was an amazing day and all my guests thought Good Habits were brilliant. Some of my friends have even been booking them for their events. I cannot recommend them enough!"

"The band were absolutely brilliant! Our crowd is sometimes hard to please but they got everyone up and dancing in no time. The setup and sound checks were professional and seamless with no disturbance to guests. I had great reviews from guests and the vibe in the pub was brilliant. We will defiantly be having Boots & Buckles back. "

"Big thanks to Davie, Stevie and Gordon of The Shooglers for playing at my wedding at Killearn Village Hall. They were great at talking us through the dances as half of our guests had no previous experience of ceilidh dancing. Their rocky twist is done fantastically well and they cleverly link classic rock songs into the traditional ceilidh music. We first saw them play at the ghillie dhu and so I can safely say they are very versatile with the events they play. The guys are very down to earth and easy to sort out the logistics through email. Thanks again guys, we will definitely look out for you if you play any public events again! "
