"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! "

"Saw Whisky & Ginger at our local golf club last weekend and they were amazing! The voice! The songs! They had us oldies up dancing long after we'd normally be heading for bed! Would thoroughly recommend anybody to book and can't wait to have you back at the club!"

"Unwritten Duo regularly perform at our pub and never fail to impress. The Punters love them and they pack the place out on their music nights. They keep the atmosphere going with their incredible upbeat live sets and DJ music with lighting. I highly recommend them for any event or venue. We have them booked for our wedding next year too! "

"...would just like to say how absolutely wonderful Becky was. Family, friends and Celebrant were equally enthralled ... commenting how beautiful Becky's performance was. Becky's soulful, yet pure voice complemented my Sister's funeral service perfectly. Despite the short notice on my behalf (a different soloist had let me down) Becky did a wonderful job of interpreting my sisters favorite songs beautifully, using both acoustic guitar and violin... and my goodness Becky's voice is just heavenly. I genuinely couldn't have asked for a more perfect final farewell for my beloved sister who loved music so much. Thank you so very much to both Becky (such a wonderful talent) and Sarah-Jane (for helping to make the whole process so easy and simple), you both made a day that I had dreaded so very beautiful and memorable... thank you xx"

"Speechless - and that's not like me. The band were fantastic - they are the best of the best, on a par with The Dubliners. Absolutely made our evening, this will be the first band we look to for all our future events without a doubt. The Caller was great fun, all of them were a compliment to each other. Off the score board. Liz Coombes"

"We got married 4th August 2018 with 37 of our closest friends and family and Devon Duo were fantastic. From going with the flow of the timings of the day, to such positivity and beautiful vocals and music making, to making my grandma feel special having a nice chat about Northumberland, it felt like we had some friends along to our wedding to play for us. Very communicative before the day too and professional at all times. Thank you so much for making our evening so special. Fiona and James "

"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 "

"The ceilidh was a great success (31st December 2013 Tuesday Goldsmith's College, Lewisham Way, New Cross, London SE14 6NW) the orchestra really enjoyed themselves! Please pass on my thanks to Wraggle Taggle for all they did - they were marvellous. If our residency is back at Goldsmiths next year, we'd love to have them back, but I'm afraid we don't know what we're doing until the last minute. I'll certainly be back in touch if we need a band for our Spring/Summer residencies though! Thanks again Ben Salter, Head of Support, National Youth Orchestra 20th January 2014"

"Lucy and Jack were amazing at our wedding. Everything we could have hoped for. They were great at learning my song requests for the whole day. Very reasonably priced for the incredible service they provide. Intimate and happy atmosphere created by their beautiful voices and musical talents! Completely perfected the musical genres we wanted of modern country and pop, with couple of older songs too. For any brides out there I highly recommend Lucy and Jack, and to have live singer whilst walking down the aisle, it was one of the most memorable parts of my day."

"I booked Unwritten Duo for a memorial event last Christmas and she provided the perfect backdrop to the evening. She was uplifting, yet soulful the perfect mix for such an event. We're delighted to book her again for future events."
