“Rock Ceilidh played at the recent Family Ceilidh I held - they were fantastic! As well as being very talented musicians, they were also very patient and spent time explaining and 'calling' the dancing which encouraged everyone to get up, dance and enjoy themselves.! Fabulous evening!! Thank you once again to the 'Rock Ceilidh Band'!!”

“Just incredible!!! Don't have the words to thank Sarah and the band enough! We first came across Nanna Radleys at a rum festival, and it was the most fun night. We then knew we NEEDED them to play at our wedding! Music was such an important part of our wedding, and these guys literally blew us away. They were fantastic in the lead up with communication, seamlessly moved our booking due to a Covid postponement, and then totally SMASHED it on the night. The dance floor was constantly full, and some of our guests said the vocals were so amazing at some points they didn't realise it was live! A huge thank you to Sarah for also meticulously sticking to my set list and requests - we know what we like, and it meant so much that they worked so hard with us to keep the flow. Just honestly the most wonderful wedding band we could have ever asked for. BOOK THEM!!! Thank you so much, Sophie and Tom x”

“We hired Mike for our son and daughter in laws wedding celebration on New Year's Eve. From the initial contact to the night of the event, Mike was always easy to contact which meant the evening was really easy to organise. Mike was immaculately turned out and his pipe playing first class. He played a large selection of tunes and to top it all he piped the bride and groom into the main hall which was truly fantastic. Mike stayed on to have photo after photo taken with all the guests. A real gentleman. I would highly recommend Mike to play at any given function. Thanks for making a great night even more special. ”

“We booked Reverie to play at our wedding, they performed a chilled out set just after dinner before the party got started and then another set later on in the evening, kicking it off by singing our first dance song! They were absolutely amazing and made our wedding day. The afternoon set was a great touch and so many guests commented on how lovely it was to have live singers during that period of time. And the evening set was exactly what we had hoped for, the dancefloor was full the whole time and a great time was had by all they even had the oldies up dancing! Highly recommended by us. ”
