    Absolutely fabulous. I was mum of the groom and the set played bought tears to my eyes especially when my new daughter in law walked down the aisle.

  2. booked Martin John for a birthday party

    Verified

    Martin was helpful and flexible when covid interrupted our plans. He communicated quickly and efficiently in advance of the event and arrived bang on time. He judged his audience and played the style of music, and volume, to suit those dancing at different times. Hope to use him again!

  3. booked The Rock 'n' Soulers for a wedding

    Verified

    The Rock ‘n’ Soulers were absolutely brilliant at our party last weekend. The singer was fantastic, the music superb and the song choice was perfect. We held a party for a 100 plus guests in an outdoor marquee. The band made the event and had everyone up dancing and having a great time. Totally flexible and professional I would highly recommend this band to anyone who wants a good time. All our guests have been raving about the band and asking how we found them. I honestly can’t recommend them enough. Many thanks to Adam and his band mates.

  7. booked Erioluwa Adeola Sax for a private event

    Verified

    Eri played at a surprise garden party for my husbands 40th birthday. From the moment i made the initial enquiry up until the event the communication was excellent and on the day Eri was fabulous. As it was a surprise he was able to fulfil the request of arriving playing happy birthday and then set up to perform. Everyone enjoyed it! Thank you Eri - you smashed it!

  8. booked Lagan Ceili Band for a private event

    Verified

    The band was just great! They read the crowd well (it was slightly older (70th birthday party), so they allowed for plenty of breaks to rest and chat) and got loads of people up dancing, many of whom were a bit nervous to start, but ended up thoroughly enjoying themselves. The caller, Diarmuid, was a great teacher and everyone learned the steps quickly. One of the really nice things was that the music and dancing were done with the lights on and it wasn't too loud, so still possible for those not dancing to have chats in the background. The caller and the musicians were so accommodating and friendly too. I would highly recommend them!

  11. booked for a wedding

    Verified

    Dayle was booked at relatively short notice and was so helpful in arranging our playlist and learning our first song (which made most people cry). He was so patient, even when he set up and we decided to move him. He had everyone on the dance floor and it was an awesome night. Can’t thank him enough - he was amazing and we would definitely recommend him.

  20. booked Naomi Wright for a wedding

    Verified

    Before the wedding, all was good and Naomi understood what we wanted for the ceremony and drinks reception. We didn’t have much communication on the morning prior to the ceremony, and unfortunately, Naomi made quite a big mistake during the aisle entrance by cutting the first song off abruptly then restarted the same song again to finish the rest of the bridal party entrance. This caused quite a bit of confusion and as the bride, I was pretty annoyed that the simple ask of playing two songs (one for the bridal party entrance and then one for the bride) were messed up. Unfortunately this upset me quite a bit as I thought everything was planned to perfection. The rest of the canapé reception went well and the guests enjoyed her performances of all of our requested songs. Thanks!
