Latest reviews of our Wedding Ceilidh Bands in Powys

"Band were excellent. Very accomodating, altered dances to fit dancers, highly recommend. "

Matt hired Long Dogs for a Wedding (available in Powys)

Verified Review, 21 May 2025

"The band were great fun: the caller was a great sport and kept us all engaged in the dancing. The band were generous with their time despite a late start due to our speeches running over. The harpist was kind and allowed a photo of me and the harp. We had a fantastic evening and everyone loved the ceilidh, would highly recommend the band. "

Joanna hired Backroom Band for a Wedding (available in Powys)

Verified Review, 10 May 2025

"Brilliant experience at our corporate event. The band was extremely professional, had great sound, responded to any requests and created fun atmosphere. For many of the attendees this was their first Ceilidh ever and Jonny was great at guiding everyone through the dances. There was also superb communication prior to the event, which put us at ease and made planning the event much easier. I can only recommend, if we will have any other event with Ceilidh coming up, we will reach out to Stringception again."
