booked Rabscallion for their event at Marriott Hotel (Swindon) in Wiltshire

“Rabscallion were so good that we are probably looking to rebook them next year for a function. They were set up ahead of schedule and very well organised.”


Such talented musicians all around.

5 stars - Rabscallion are Highly Recommended
booked Rabscallion for their wedding in Northamptonshire

“Rabscallion exceeded expectations, everybody loved them, from young children to older guests, everybody was joining in! They agreed to play Danny Boy on my mum's request at the very end which closed the performance perfectly. They played a traditional sentimental piece for our first dance then into the fun and games for the remainder! Such talented musicians all around.”


The Gypsy Rouges were fantastic.

5 stars - Gypsy Rogues are Highly Recommended
booked Gypsy Rogues for their wedding at Lains Barn Office in Oxfordshire

“The Gypsy Rouges were fantastic. Talented musicians, infectious energy and great interaction with the audience. Several guests commented that it was the best ceilidh they had ever been to. Absolutely excellent. They really made the evening of the wedding and I can't recommend them highly enough.”

booked Rabscallion for their wedding in Warwickshire

“I would score higher than 10/10 if I could! The band were absolutely fantastic. They had so much energy, and ran the ceilidh brilliantly. The music they played was great, a real range. There was definitely something for everyone. The dances were simple enough for everyone to get involved, but great fun at the same time.

“Bravissimo! What a lovely evening of dance in the Piazza. We thoroughly enjoyed having the trio to perform at the Cantiere and the enjoyment they brought to our staff. The inclusive style of the dancing was very inkeeping with the festivals values. I wish you a great 2015 and hope to meet again soon!”

booked The Manchester Ceilidh Trio for their event

“The band were AWESOME! Streets ahead of everyone else we considered. Michael was a lovely guy who really kept the atmosphere rocking - not that we needed much encouragement - and the whole celebration was utterly magical. Please pass on our thanks to him and the others for making my birthday such a wonderful, unforgettable occasion.”

5 stars - Gypsy Rogues are Highly Recommended
booked Gypsy Rogues for their wedding in Shropshire

“This band are friendly, are very competent performing musicians and have a good repertoire. We felt well looked-after and the ‘calling’ was clear and done with humour. We thought Gypsy Rogues were different and quirky in a nice sort of way. Although their sound may come out of a box, they do not.”

booked Gypsy Rogues for their wedding in Cheshire

“We had decided 24 years ago that we wanted a Ceilidh band for our wedding day - so when we finally got the chance to renew our vows and have a 'proper wedding day' it was very important to us to have a really good band. We received lots of comments from our guests saying how good the band were. The agency gave us the confidence to book and know exactly what we were getting - and the band were b...”
