What an amazing evening. The band were so entertaining - it was like having a comedy night and band in one! They were so engaging, I loved the banter and the energy!
We were a tired group of people (school staff at the end of term) but they did their best to keep us going and keep the energy up.
We will all remember this night!

Karl and the rest of the band absolutely made our night! They managed to wrangle a 100+ crowd and get them on their feet for a ceilidh. Karl was an excellent caller and adapted instructions and routines as he went, ensuring everyone felt welcome and included. The music was full of energy and exactly what we were after; as a family of Murphys, we were very happy with the song/dance choices and loved every second.
Karl was communicative throughout the booking and planning process, ensuring everything was prepped well in advance of our wedding day. We honestly could not be happier, and neither could our guests: it was the highlight of the night for many, and we couldn't have picked a better band.
A massive diolch yn fawr from Mr and Mrs Murphy!

What a band!! Absolutely fantastic music from this talented trio which created a super atmosphere. Everyone was excited for the ceilidh. People were up dancing and definitely having fun. Instructions and run throughs were clearly called and directed. It was a great way to spend the evening and especially good for those of us with limited dancing skills! I’d definitely recommend The New Fox Band.

Great communication from the band from the outset. I couldn't recommend them enough, I had them for the evening entertainment at my wedding and they were a great hit! Everyone got up and danced, it was such fun and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you for an amazing evening!

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
