I cannot recommend them too highly.
Strings and Reeds have been playing for… us at our barn dances for many years. I cannot recommend them too highly. Their music and humor constitute and excellent evening’s entertainment. They have a very varied selection of dances with instrumental breaks. They have our bookings from year to year and we now consider them as friends. Read more “I cannot recommend them too highly.”
Your super performance at our joint birthday celebration
Hi Mike
Just wanted to say… a big “thank you” to you and your Strings and Reeds band for your super performance at our joint birthday celebration ceilidh on Saturday night.
Rowena and I had a wonderful time and it seems everyone else did too. Lots of people have specifically mentioned how great the band was in their feedback and you were a big factor in an
all-round fantastic evening. We thought you hit exactly the right note for the occasion and it was so good to see a caller, donned with a head mic, getting down off the stage to be right in the middle of the action. I think everyone who was there – with the possible exception of the band and the caretaker! – wishes it could have gone on longer. We might even have had time then for the second
”strip the willow”!
So well done to all of you. Please pass on our great appreciation to your colleagues.
Best regards. Read more “Your super performance at our joint birthday celebration”
