Sam hired Cat’s Claw Ceilidh Band for a Birthday party (available in Wales)
"These guys are the real deal. Mick, our caller, explained each dance very well, and made everyone feel very comfortable. The band were musically on point, and worked around our schedule as the wedding day timings were a bit later than expected. The whole group set up and down without fuss and were able to accommodate some additional requests for the first dance. My sister and a friend were able to use their system to perform the song. Thank you guys for making our day highly memorable. "
