Everyone at my birthday party commented that the band and music were very good.
I thought they were great !
The musical support they provided for the evening entertainment just made the event perfect
No one needed encouragement to get up and dance !
Also they were very attentive to our requested choice of music

David and his musicians were fabulous. Everything happened on time, and they had barely started when everyone jumped up to dance. They read the crowd perfectly and no one wanted to tear themselves away!

Great night, everyone enjoyed the music and banter. Dave was easy to talk too for the group. Would have them again. Music was a good mix of Irish music.

We'd definitely recommend the Blag band, our friends and family really enjoyed themselves. Many times over I was asked how I discovered them, and repeatedly told how great they were. Everything was 5*, good communication, prompt, professional, fun and so great at what they do. Our one regret is that the hours flew by and we could have happily indulged in another set.

Kelly’s Heroes came to play at my Dad’s wake and made it such a special event. Helen dealt with the admin ahead of the event and was absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much to the whole band and you were absolutely amazing. Aisling and family xx

Price of My Pig were fantastic. We hired them for our wedding evening, as we wanted to have a Ceilidh for the guests.
The band was flexible to meet our requirements for during the buffet, and were excellent at getting all of the guests involved and on the dance floor, to make sure that there was always dancing going on!
The music was fantastic, and the musicians were incredible.
Thank you Ben and the band for making our wedding evening a blast!
We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies
We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
