Isaac Murphy7 Apr 2024

Booked for Wedding

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!

Booked for Celebration

What can I say? Phil and his band were absolutely superb would be an understatement. Our wedding party was enhanced beyond measure by their professionalism and talent. As a caller Phil is witty, persuasive and a consumate entertainer going above and beyond to deliver fun and enjoyment. From the moment they started till the moment they finished they had us all dancing our socks off, in one case quite literally. Going above and beyond our caller even made up the numbers for our last dance. I would have no hesitation in booking Phil for future family events.

Booked for Wedding

We weren't able to have PoMP at our wedding due to UK coronavirus restrictions, however they were incredibly flexible in returning our deposit and we plan to hopefully use them in future when we renew our vows. Ben is very friendly and prompt with queries.

Booked for Wedding

The veritable ceilidh club performed at our wedding yesterday and they were absolutely fantastic. Very patient calling and the transitions between songs were amazing. Above all they were all nice people and made everything really easy. Would highly recommend hiring these guys and girls.

Price of my pig played at my wedding and were absolutely incredible. The whole band were so much fun and got the whole wedding party involved. The band was excellent and evening DJ was perfect. Ben always got back to me very quickly and was so accommodating to all of our requests. Cannot recommend enough!

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