We hired Spill The Whisky for our wedding and could not recommend them more. Debby was a fantastic caller and got all of our guests up and dancing even when the aircon broke! None of us had any particular ceilidh experience but that didn't matter at all. We had so many compliments from our guests who had an amazing time and we all had so much fun!

Blag played a Ceilidh for my 50th Birthday party on Saturday. We had a fantastic time and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The calling was very clear and the music brilliantly played. I specifically wanted an event where young and old, keen and not so keen dancers would all participate and that was achieved to the enjoyment of everyone. Thank you so much. The communication before the event was clear and helpful - David answering all sorts of detailed questions that I had. I can thoroughly recommend Blag to ensure a great event.

David & the band were a great success. Thank you for organizing things. They gave the party huge atmosphere & everyone commented on them. They were charming, polite, & played almost non-stop after a particularly busy wend. I will certainly recommend them........... xx

Great communication with David since making the booking back in October and a friendly confirmation call the week of the gig too. Set up on time, in a tight space and a great atmosphere created for my friends 40th birthday. Playlist requirements provided by the birthday girl were accommodated for, even with new tracks to learn. A great band and a great night! One to definitely keep on the books for future events.

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.

Exciting Klezmer Band Playing Both Traditional & Original Repertoire

5.0(5 reviews)

Klezmer Foygl - meaning Klezmer Songbird in Yiddish, play traditional Klezmer music, performing both traditional and newly composed repertoire in an authentic way. The band shares a deep love and understanding of this music and seeks to educate audiences about its origins, development, and current function. The band's performance, interwoven with explanations and stories, will take audiences on a journey through many elements of this music and its role in Yiddish culture.
