We booked Clare's band for our 10th wedding anniversary, an informal party at our home. With an Irish family and friends who love Irish music, we were keen to have a blend of popular folk songs and more instrumental tunes to encourage dancing... The band were fantastic - superb musicians, friendly and engaging and open to music requests. The audience, from 7 months to 70, loved the set. We would highly recommend the band and look forward to booking them for our next party."

Thank you so much for the amazing music you provided us on our wedding day. So many guests commented on how your music created the perfect atmosphere. The tune - ceremony - that you learnt for us was just so wonderful and a few people stated it put the hairs up on the back of their neck when you played it. Thank you.
-Tara Kenny (Ham Polo Club)
Thank you so much for playing at our wedding, you were absolutely brilliant and everyone was talking about what a beautiful touch your playing was,
it turned something nice into something magical, and my mother even commented about what a lovely and charming woman you are too.
We can't believe you took the time to learn the music we had suggested, including the L'Atalante theme, we are very grateful indeed. We had a really amazing day and you contributed significantly to thank - so thank you.

"We were delighted with our choice of Clare and her band for our recent charity céilí in central London.
Their energetic caller was amazing in the number of dances she knew and the ability she had to persuade the crowd to get on their feet and dance.
The music was exactly what we were looking for, the musicians very accomplished and always ready to take suggestions, and they played a mix of old favourites and some new dances to ensure that novices and experienced céilí goers had great fun. We will certainly be contacting them next time around! Thanks."

We had a truly fabulous evening, the music was excellent, the atmosphere was high and the dance floor was packed all night.
Everyone commented on what talented musicians Clare's band were and the whole ambience of the evening including the sensitivity of the caller, helped our two families get to know each other. Thanks again

Many thanks for a great evening --- your music was just right for the occasion, and we have had many phone calls , e-mails and text messages from our guests congratulating us on a fantastic party.
I think you managed to get everybody dancing by the end—even those who usually stay in the corners or hide in the kitchen.
Many thanks to you –we would certainly use you again and would recommend you to anybody else wishing to have a great party.

Romanzo is a first class Greek Cypriot restaurant, so friendly and welcoming with good food but it was made all the more special thanks to your excellent music which everyone remarked on as creating a really special atmosphere.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you most sincerely for attending our wedding and entertaining our guests.
We could never have imagined the extremely high quality of the performance with a very reasonable cost which went a long way to making our wedding the best day of our lives. I would highly recommend this band to anyone thinking of their future wedding to ensure as much success as we have enjoyed. Thank you again for a perfect day.

Once again efharisto poli

We all had a FANTASTIC time on Saturday. It was an amazing day, and EVERYONE enjoyed your music/dancing.
Many thanks for putting on such great music for us. We have had many of the wedding guests comment on how great you were and as you witnessed yourselves- the dance floor was constantly full with people dancing and having a fantastic time.
We hope that you enjoyed the evening too, I know you were working, but we hope you had a nice environment to work in and that you enjoyed yourselves.
It was my brothers wedding, and I found you through the website. At my wedding I had a different Greek band- who were great, but I will say that I thought you were better, and that I would recommend you to other people. I am sure that there will be other functions amongst my family and friends who may ask for your contact so I will keep you in mind and pass on your details- I hope that's ok.
You were all great and also very professional. My parents, brother (Bride and groom) and extended family and friends all thought that you were fantastic and had a great time. We wish you all the best in the future and thank you for such a great evening.
