Claire H booked Rabscallion for their wedding in Staffordshire
“Rabscallion are excellent musicians who brought energy and laughs to our wedding day. With a wide repertoire of well known ceilidh tunes, they handled the challenge of 100 people (95% of whom had never been to a ceilidh before). I would recommend them for any event.”

Alan booked Hazelwood for their event in Hampshire
“This is the second year that we have had Hazelwood perform at the HMS EXCELLENT Burns Night dinner. If anything, they were even better this year than last.

I will be making sure to book early to guarante...”
