"Fantastic!!!!"
Will hired Bowstring for a Birthday party (available in Isle of Wight)
"So happy I booked the Cahootenany ceilidh band for my 30th birthday. They were clear and friendly in all communication and really lead the way in everything that needed doing (as I had no idea having never thrown a party like this before). On the day they came early to set everything up and do sound checks before guests arrived which worked well. Their sets were fab and the caller (sorry I've forgotten her name) was great making people feel comfortable enough to dance whilst teasing a little bit. Best decision hiring the band - they were the party! Thanks so much to everyone."
