Thanks again for a very enjoyable evening
Laurent B booked Reels On Wheels for their party in Buckinghamshire
“Very pleased overall with Mick and his crew from Reels On Wheels who played at Nancy's 90th Birthday Celebration. They got all the oldies up on the dance floor which was lovely to see dancing to a varied mix of Irish tunes from their homeland. Thanks again for a very enjoyable evening.”
A big Thank you to all of them for making it a great night!

Clara R booked Scatter The Mud for their wedding in West Sussex
“Scatter the Mud" were fantastic, the music was great, they did the perfect first dance for us whilst getting everyone involved with it. "Scatter the Mud" had people dancing for the whole time they were performing and had young and old dancing together. I couldn't have wished for a better band and would definitely recommend them.”

Our guests had an amazing time, and by the end, everyone was dancing
Morgan S booked Reels On Wheels for their wedding in Cambridgeshire
“Amazing!!! The band was superb. The songs were performed to the highest standard, and they were FUN. Our guests had an amazing time, and by the end, everyone was dancing. At one point, the band even called a miniature impromptu ceilidh dance: we don't know who initiated this, but it was a fantastic read of the crowd, who adored it. Again, we received so many compliments on the band.”
A huge hit with us and all our guests

Victoria G booked Sandpiper for their event
“Ben and his band provided a hell of a surprise party for my mum’s 60th! Their ability to integrate with our extended friends and family, both in terms of the ‘surprise’ moment, the food and the speeches was superb, and really meant we were able to make it personal to mum. She hasn’t stopped beaming since, and commented that having a ceilidh meant that we could enjoy the dan...”

“Their performance was really good and of a high standard and did everything that we asked them brilliantly. Brilliant, Worth every penny.”
Emma A booked Sandpiper for their wedding
“These guys were just fab as entertainment for our wedding day. When you have a mix of young, old and young at heart, it’s so hard to please everyone, but please everyone they did. With their infectious beats, comedic interludes and toe tapping tunes, Ben and co brought energy, fun and laughter to the dance-floor. The dress code for guests was an optional touch of purple in memory of my mum, ...”
