Really lovely band, played at my 21st birthday, friendly and brought good vibes + great music. I booked a bit last minute but they replied so quickly and fitted me in. Would def recomend.

Flaming Heather made our weddings evening reception so much fun. They called out all the steps for our guests and helped put us all at ease as we tried to remember dances we from our school days . They turned our evening into a night never to be forgotten. Lots of great tunes and laughter . Thanks for everything

You guys were absolutely fantastic, all three had so much charisma and really got the party going. Most of our party were first time Ceilidh dancers, but Michael’s calling was clear and fun, he really set everyone at ease. Getting a bunch of grumpy Yorkshire men ceilidhing with so much enthusiasm was really quite an achievement. It was the highlight of the day for many guests, thank you so much!

Thank you for making our evening wedding reception an absolute blast! The music led by Grace was superb, we loved having a female pipe player. Briony’s calling was brilliant, getting all involved with good humour and clear instruction. Our guests are still commenting on what an amazing evening they had with The Lemon Céilí Co. Thank you again for helping to make our special day so memorable and so much fun!

Davie and the Big Shoogle were absolutely outstanding!! We had guests from quite literally all over the world and each and every one of them was up dancing at some point and fell in love with a good old fashioned Scottish ceilidh! There was a great mix of dances from the basic of the gay Gordon’s to what can only be described as flying planks! All our guests had a ball which is down to the upbeat and charismatic craic of Davie and his band. We were officially Shoogled!

A great evening . The band gauged the audience’s enthusiasm, fitness and ability to dance perfectly . Caller was patient, humorous and succinct and music comprised good traditional tunes. Particularly impressed by their ability to improvise in a long narrow dance space and allow us to execute The Dashing White Sergeant successfully!

I cannot fault this band in any way! We kept the ceilidh as a surprise for our wedding guests and it went down as well as we had hoped! The caller was excellent and all the guests engaged well and the dances were so fun and energetic. We have had so many compliments since our wedding about that and can't wait to see the professional photos because we know they will show just how much fun we had. The band then continued on for another hour playing covers of popular wedding songs which was also excellent. The band were very quick, efficient and professional, and the booking process, forms and numerous zoom calls made the whole thing very easy and stress-free. We really can't recommend this band enough.

Ian and his band were fantastic. We had a high energy group of young folk at the party and the band managed them perfectly. The calling was clear and everyone had a fantastic evening.

Alison, Willie and their band were very friendly and put on an absolutely brilliant ceilidh, putting people who weren't too sure of the steps at ease, having fun, really really great music and knowing which dances to play and when to up the tempo. It was a really brilliant ceilidh, and afterwards they used their sound system for a disco. We very highly recommend.

It was so much fun to have the trio along and they were so clear with their instructions that even the French at our wedding could follow along. Mike’s communication was superb and at one point extremely helpful by replying quickly with a key document, as we dealt with a problem with our venue. Thank you all.

Fairgeeen Ceilidh Band were fantastic, really easy to get in touch with and chat about the set up before the wedding. On the night they put on an awesome show and had everyone involved in our barn dance. Our guests had a great time. Would highly recommend them!!

Bowstring were great - they did a great job at calling the dances and dealing with a somewhat packed dancefloor, and the playing was excellent

These guys were great. Really helpful to talk to before the event, fantastic musicians and really entered into the spirit of the event. I cannot recomend them highly enough and I'll certainly be hiring them again.
