    We had a brilliant afternoon with the band, they were really great at organising our very ramshackle crowd of all ages! They are fantastic musicians and the whole thing felt very fun and relaxed. Would wholeheartedly recommend! Thanks very much.

    We loved hosting Stroma. They were absolutely brilliant. We had all ages dancing together and Clara made the dances very easy for everyone to join in and enjoy with her great explanations. Everything went so smoothly. Well done Stroma and big thank you from St. Mary's E17.

  4. booked Staffin Island Ceilidh Band for a private event

    Verified

    Wonderful! Couldn't have asked for a better experience. The band played for my 70th birthday party and had everyone up dancing from start to finish with a break for the cake cutting and played in the background for a further short break. The Caller helped us all with the footwork and took account of the small children in the group. A brilliant party - we didn't want them to leave! Thank you for making my party such a memorable and happy event! XX

  7. booked Price of My Pig for a birthday party

    Verified

    The band were great! Such good musicians and my guests appreciated their playing and repartee during the dancing. Unfortunately they got held up by road works and were a little late arriving. But they set up quickly and got the music going. Definitely recommend Price of my pig.

  8. booked Burdock Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    The burdock ceilidh band were an excellent addition to our wedding, playing a variety of traditional Scottish dances, and some new dances not familiar to us, but all were very fun and enjoyed by the array of guests we had, many of whom had never been to a ceilidh before. The caller was very engaging and able to clearly call the dances for people of different experiences and ages to learn, and was also great at getting people onto the dance floor and involved in the dances. All of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing it was, and it made the whole evening that more special by tapping into our Scottish heritage, which was very important to us. 10/10 and hopefully we get to see them play again!

  11. booked Nevis Ceilidh Band for a wedding

    Verified

    Nevis Ceilidh Band delivered nothing but the best! We booked them for our wedding and they helped make this day as special as it can be. They were tasked with the challenge of teaching most of the guests their first ceilidh with the additional challenge of having french people with little English. They rose up to is extremely well (and even managed to use some of that higher french!) everyone loved it and was asking for more (after some rest of course). The communication was fast, efficient and friendly. This made it stress free and great in the middle of all the other planning. The music was great and the atmosphere even greater. Would 100% recommend for anyone planning a ceilidh.

    Bon:Stovi were absolutely amazing and we loved having them perform at our wedding. The dance floor was overflowing from the start to the finish of their set. They were super fun, mega talented and fantastic at coaching us through all the steps (our memories needed some refreshing!). Communication was easy and friendly the whole way through the process and it was such a pleasure to meet the band on the day. Highly recommend booking them!

    The band were great, with a solid sound, danceable tunes, and well chosen references to rock classics. And the calling was perfect for our guests, who were a mix of experts and novices from across Europe. No stress to deal with, too, so I'm very happy to recommend!

  20. booked Stroma Folk & Ceilidh for a private event

    Verified

    Stroma Folk & Ceilidh were brilliant. Excellent musicians and the caller was fantastic - everyone at our party had a great time. So much so that my sister immediately wanted their details for another party next year! Can thoroughly recommend - they were punctual, professional and also obliging when we ended up running slightly behind schedule.
