The communication was excellent, and they were all round fantastic performers and great fun. We had LOTS of good reviews from our guests afterwards. Thank you!"
CARYS hired Buchanan Ceilidh Band (BCB) for a Private event (available in West Sussex)
"A huge thank you to David and the band for all their efforts to ensure my 30th birthday ceilidh went off without a hitch! The communication throughout was excellent, David made sure I was really happy with the setlist and general format of the evening and on the night we had everyone up and dancing, including first-time ceilidh dancers! Opening the dancing with David playing the pipes really set the scene for an excellent evening of all the traditional ceilidh tunes. You can't beat live music at a party and all the guests said how much they enjoyed it. I can highly recommend David and the band for a professional, friendly and very high quality service!"
