  1. booked for a burns night

    Verified

    Ewan and Shona were absolutely fantastic. They were so pleasant and professional, and arrived in excellent time. They were not only brilliant musicians, but were also very receptive to small changes to the programme on the evening, and totally nailed the vibe and the ability of the guests. It was such fun, they were so kind, and I would absolutely not only book them again but recommend them heartily.

  4. booked The Rock Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    An excellent value and enormously fun ceilidh band. Rock Ceilidh had the floor full at our wedding reception, getting even the most reluctant dancers up. It was big gathering of almost 90 total novice ceilidh dancers, so there was a lot of chaos and confusion which was handled well and with humour. We felt looked after and communication was great from start to finish. A huge thank you!

  7. booked Nevis Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    Nevis Ceilidh band were exceptional! Their playing was wonderful, and large numbers of our wedding guests went out of their way to say how good they were. Their calling of dances was clear and very welcoming (even demonstrating where required!). And in the run up to the wedding they were very communicative and easy to engage with. All in all, I could not recommend them more highly!

  9. booked Fairgreen Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    Epic band - brought the vibes, great choices of dances, everyone - including us of course - loved them. They really set the scene for the rest of the day… We were laughing our heads off whilst getting many of the moves wrong haha. The guests also loved the chance to show off their moves in the middle of the circle. Thank you so much for getting the party started - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chris and the band for any event. 10/10 thank you!

    Cat’s Claw played at our wedding and they were absolutely brilliant. The caller was fantastic and the musicians were wonderful.

  15. booked Stroma Folk & Ceilidh for a wedding

    Verified

    If I could give 6 stars I would. What a fantastic band! They're dedicated, they play exceptionally well, bring so much energy and made a ceilidh celebration for our wedding that everyone is still talking about 2 weeks after. They came to France and played for us until the early hours, they even provided all the translations to get our guests excited. Jordan was fantastic with communication in the lead up to the wedding. Just wow!

  16. booked Jiggered Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    Jiggered were absolutely fantastic right through from the initial quote. Great communication - they made this part of the day stress-free and pulled it off without a hitch. Our wedding had a mix of Scots, English and Spanish - many of whom hadn't ceilidh danced before - the band were experts at balancing the calling of dances with a flow which ensured everyone was energized and dancing. One of our standout moments from the whole day was the Orcadian Strip the Willow where our whole wedding party were on their feet and dancing right through the dance floor and into the bar. I would highly recommend Jiggered. We cannot thank them enough!

  17. booked Triple Scotch Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    Excellent from start to finish. Exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Ceremony music was emotional to walk in to. The ceilidh dancing was so much fun and got everyone up. Everybody enjoyed it. Olly’s instructions were very clear and easy to follow for us being beginners. He was very patient with us. 😊 A lot of people said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and a lot of that was down to Olly and the band. Thank you so much!
