They were exactly what we needed. Just the 3 of them, providing the basic tunes, a bit of calling the dances and then we were off as most of us knew the dances and just needed a wee reminder. They played 2 good sets and everyone was up and dancing. Very good value .

Lilac, Hilary and Remko recently played at a private party I organised for my wife's 50th Birthday and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. They were everything you would want a band to be - helpful and adaptable in terms of agreeing the set list, professional and communicative throughout, incredibly efficient on set-up and ultimately outstanding performers. Not just in terms of playing and singing, but also in terms of stagecraft and working the crowd. We had an amazing knees-up dancing to Irish reels, folk songs and modern Irish hits in rapid rotation. Not only that but the guys hung on for a couple of hours after the performance and chatted with all of the guests and were a tremendous addition to the bonhomie of the evening. Snap them up, they are a rare and delightful band.

They were absolutely brilliant--created a really lovely atmosphere and were totally relaxed and professional. Only sorry we were too busy rushing around to talk to them more! Really lovely music, highly recommended.

Absolutely brilliant. We would highly recommend them. They were the best band and made Cara's party go with a swing. All the feedback from the guests was fantastic. Thank you Triple Scotch Ceilidh Band, thank you, thank you.

Norloch was terrific! Great music, good 'calling' of the dances, good communication before the event and they were happy to change their plan to fit in with mine. I would have them again in a heartbeat.

Mary and the band were fantastic. They were brilliant at sorting out all the arrangements including joint setup with a second band we had on later in the night. They were incredibly flexible including adjusting their timings when our evening ran late. The music was brilliant and got the party off to a flying start. Thanks Bass Rock Ceilidh Band!

Fantastic! Everyone at the half Scottish / half English wedding loved them, really great music and very clear calling. In the run up, all communication with Joanna was professional and easy. Thanks for playing so amazingly! Tom

Thank you, thank you, thank you for an excellent evening!!! Dave, Malcolm and - I'm so sorry, didn't catch the names of the other two musicians - were brilliant on the night. Friendly, professional, engaging, flexible, continuously playing with vigour and enthusiasm - everything you can hope for to make our celebration perfect! Our friends and family are now mad about ceilidhs! The cheekiness of Malcolm on the dance floor, backed by the band, was a big hit as well and made everyone laugh. Some of our guests didn't speak English, some were deaf, but all could follow as the calling was clear and moves were demonstrated well. I liked the personal touch as well, when Malcolm came to me to give some top tips for a dance we've just finished - where I got my hands and turns mixed up :-). The band joined in well with the Happy Birthday singing as well as the jam session when we were given our two cajons pressies! The booking process with Encore was very easy as well. Thank you!

Franks band made a good night into a great night, I could only afford two members of the band but despite that it was enough and my guests enjoyed them selves and their attempts to dance.

Fabulous band

Chris and his colleagues played an excellent outdoor set at our wedding and encouraged our guests, including many who had never been to a ceilidh to participate. The music was great and the calling was perfect - detailed enough without preventing enjoyment of the dances. We would not hesitate to recommend them for a ceilidh at a wedding.

The band were excellent. They showed up on time, immediately came to find me, provided good guidance ahead of time about setting up, and then played an excellent set! I can't recommend Bass Rock Ceilidh enough. Our guests (and us!) had a fabulous time.
