The band were absolutely fantastic. From their professionalism to their musical talent. They know how to create a wonderful atmosphere and how to keep the crowd going. Their knowledge of the dances and steps is second to none. It was a pleasure all round. Thanks again guys, we will definitely be booking you again. ~Darren (Senior College Advisor, GIC)

Ben and Paul were great. We communicated well before the day. They arrived spot on time and were organised and flexible. They brought lighting as well as sound system. They were friendly, funny and welcoming to the dancers. Everyone had a great time and many specifically asked me to pass on their thanks. Would definitely use them again.

BlackRock played at our 'Burn's Night Ceilidh' for Aird Explorer Scout Unit in Kirkhill. They were absolutely amazing players, a great mix of ceilidh dancing and other Scottish songs; feedback from attending guests was extremely positive! They made our fundraiser so special and we really couldn't do without them! Thanks BlackRock, you guys smashed it! Recommend 5 stars everytime!

A lovely band who were on time, played fantastic tunes for a Burns Night, had a superb caller and were quite delightful to work with on the night and in communication before the event. I would highly recommend them!

If you are planning a ceilidh in the Midlands, particularly for a wedding, Schuggie is the first person you want to call. From our very first enquiry, he went above and beyond to ensure that we had the ceilidh and wedding reception we wanted. Schuggie regularly touched base in the months running up to the wedding, helping us plan our playlists and our first dance, whilst also providing us with really useful resources - his 'cheat sheet' probably prevented a dozen different disasters alone! With only a handful of Scots and few guests in attendance who had previously been to a ceilidh, I was a bit worried we would be faced with an empty dance floor for much of the night. However, Shuggie, aided by the fantastic Big Moose Ceilidh Band, had every person who was able on their feet and dancing for hours! Schuggie's calling style was fun and enaging, clearly explaining the steps to novices, whilst variations on popular dances kept even those of us who grew up in Scotland on our toes! This, along with his emceeing from our arrival until the very last song of the night, his gaelic blessing during our somewhat impromptu quaich ceremony, and efforts to resolve any issues which arrose with vendors ensured that our reception will be remembered for all the right reasons for many years to come! Once again, many thanks Schuggie. Slàinte Mhath!
