Sally H booked Rakish Paddy for their party in London
“I hired Rakish Paddy for my Dad's 90th birthday and it is fair to say they absolutely made the party. They put a lot of effort into liaising with me beforehand and were very good at responding to my requests, including special songs I wanted in relation to my Dad's life. They arrived promptly, were personable and friendly with all our guests, made my Dad feel like a million dollars and most of all...”
The highlight of our wedding day
Emmie A booked Footfall for their wedding
“We had an absolutely fantastic time on our wedding day with you being there being a highlight of the day. A wonderful day with the musicians playing on the lawn in the sunshine with most of us barefoot, the music and the dances were brilliant and alot of fun. It was a good ice breaker too to get everyone warmed up and dancing together early in the day. We really enjoyed it. If we put on another ...”
Sean P booked Rakish Paddy for their party
“Wonderful show! 5 stars, great music, great fun.”
John M booked Rakish Paddy for their party in Hertfordshire
“I booked Rakish Paddy for my 60th birthday Ceilidh - couldn't have had a more perfect celebration. Ruth and the guys totally made the evening. Their musicianship was fabulous, my guests commented on how good they were. Communication was excellent throughout from the initial telephone call with Ruth right through to the end of my celebration. I wanted a fun evening for amateur dancers and they pro...”
Oscar O booked Gypsy Rogues for their party in Oxfordshire
“Getting the extended family together every year has always been fun and a great way of keeping in touch beyond the normal births, deaths and marriages. The Gypsy Rogues helped make this year’s gathering especially good fun. The music was fabulous and they really got everyone into the party spirit… I think they might even have had a bit of fun themselves, despite my awful singing, about which they ...”
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.”
Thank you so much for a great session yesterday!

Mary booked Footfall for their party
“We'd like to give the Rosevilles six stars if we could! Punctual, friendly, accommodating, good value - and great musicians! Our do was a seventieth birthday party with guests from 5 to 97, and everyone loved it. Hire them - you'll have a great time!”
Everyone had such a blast in the ceilidh!
Gwenllian D booked Polychorea for their wedding
“A huge thank you to you and the band for last Saturday- everyone had such a blast in the ceilidh, and even though lots of people had never done such a thing before they had a great time! We had such a fantastic day and the band brought smiles to everyone’s faces.”
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. There were a few guests who knew the dances but most were heavily dependent on the skill of the caller. She didn't disappoint; keeping us all on track and making the evening run brilliantly. I will be making sure to book early to guarante...”
