They were extremely friendly and adapted well to the crazy event going on around them. The dances we were taught went down extremely well land everyone loved listening to the very skilled musicians

Gaita were brilliant and helped to make our event a success. They listened to what we needed and hit the nail on the head. We loved the music and the dance was just great and very well led by the ensemble. We had guests from 6 months to over 90, but this music was enjoyed by everyone. We had a venue where the children could play outside, but even when there were some children inside they kept going wonderfully well. Many of us love chamber music but this musical genre was accessible to all guests.

Thank you John. It was a pleasure to perform for such an appreciative and knowledgeable audience (and good dancers). All the best for many more anniversaries. Chris Elmes

Gaita were a fantastic addition to our celebration and managed a rather rowdy gang wonderfully. They taught up some dances and created an ambiance that will be remembered for a very long time! Thank you. It was truly magical and like being transported back in time!

Thank you so much for playing at our medieval themed wedding at Neidpath Castle. To us the band was always going to be the most important part to bring the atmosphere together and we could not have hoped for more. You were professional, courteous, flawless and so helpful especially prior e.g. to choose the music to walk down the isle. You knew exactly how to pace the music, how to be in the foreground but also background at the best times and seemed to require absolutely no direction, even though you had never been at the venue before smile emoticon:) It was like you had always been there! The dancing you taught us all was such a laugh that everyone was talking about it for weeks and you can tell by all the smiles in the pictures that the guests just got so into it.
