Ewan and Shona were absolutely fantastic. They were so pleasant and professional, and arrived in excellent time. They were not only brilliant musicians, but were also very receptive to small changes to the programme on the evening, and totally nailed the vibe and the ability of the guests. It was such fun, they were so kind, and I would absolutely not only book them again but recommend them heartily.

Ewan, what a night! Please firstly pass on my thanks to your other band members. The fiddle player you had was superb and it complimented the box just perfectly. I don't want to write to much about my event but your music, expertise and knowledge made everything run smoothly for me. Very reasonably charged also. Many thanks.

Hi Ewan and Band. I just wanted to pass on my thanks to you and your trio for traveling through to Glasgow to play for my birthday party. Your dance calling really helped us get through the night and with the lift of the music it was just so much fun. Thank you and good luck with your future in the music world. Simon.
