Reviews

“We had the good fortune of choosing The Haggis Chasers Ceilidh Band for our wedding dance. From the moment they started our guests never stopped dancing. Calling out the dances for the unsure and uninitiated when needed, and playing with high energy that transferred onto the dance floor! Highly Recommended!!”

“We had the pleasure of booking Craig and the band for our wedding in December 2021. From the moment we paid the deposit, we knew we were in safe hands! Communication was great and the band were so professional and flexible throughout. However, on the night they exceeded expectations! The dance floor was packed and they got everyone dancing. We received so many compliments about the music and would highly recommend that anyone considering booking the band should go for it! It will be a highlight of your wedding day.”
