A fantastic band that really lift the spirit

5 stars - Rakish Paddy are Highly Recommended
booked Rakish Paddy for their Wedding in Essex

“The band created a superb atmosphere on a very wet and miserable day. They lifted the guests to the point where every guest was dancing to their last two songs at 10.45pm. The caller was excellent and very patient which helped most of the guests grasp the fundamental moves. They received rapturous applause at the end of the evening. Much deserved.”
