"The band were excellent. Great musicians, great caller. Very professional and obviously know their stuff so they're able to be flexible. Good selection of music and dances.

"The Riot Band played at our wedding and wow what a wonderful evening we all had! The music was fantastic and the caller was great. We had some guests who had never heard of a ceilidh before and they made sure that everything was very easy to follow. All of our guests commented on how much fun they had and how great the band and their music was. I would definitely recommend booking The Riot Band to anyone who is considering having a ceilidh for their celebrations. Thank you very much for an amazing evening. "

"Couldn't have been better! The caller, who was in addition to,the 4 piece band explained everything very clearly for the newbies but also briefly so we could get on with the dance. They were happy to 'fall in' with exactly what we wanted and chose dances appropriate to our age and skill levels. Really good"
