We booked Andrew for a Burns Night dinner and we were thrilled by his performance. Andrew checked what we wanted beforehand, turned up promptly, played two great sets for us and really brought a sense of occasion with his attendance. He was well turned out and dressed smartly in a kilt, exceptionally polite and friendly. I will certainly look to use him again, I think he’d be fantastic for a wedding. Do give him a go, you won’t feel disappointed that you booked him.
