We hired Bowreed for our wedding a couple of weeks ago as a Ceilidh/Covers band combo and we honestly could not have been any happier, they were absolutely amazing...in the lead up to the day, Fred was exceptionally good at keeping in touch with us and answering/helping with any requests we had and totally put us at ease. The DJ service for after the live music was perfect too.

Neil's Wedding, April 2019

Lovely lovely lovely! Booked these guys to celebrate my 40th birthday party. They didn't disappoint. Fantastic and charismatic caller supported by a fab fiddler and guitarist. They pitched it just right (we had a lot of children involved) and created a great atmosphere for people to have a lot of fun. Thoroughly recommend.

Matt's Birthday Party, November 2018

Bowreed were the perfect band for our Burns Supper and Ceilidh. Thank you all, you did an amazing job! The caller had the entire ballroom of guests on the dance floor, mostly complete beginners, yet she managed to keep everyone on the move, all having a great time, and ending the night hungry for more.

Graham's Burns Night, January 2019

Bowreed played at my 60th birthday party, attended by friends of all ages, and were just brilliant. They kept everyone dancing, engaging even the most reluctant dancer through lively music and exceptional calling. By the end of the evening they felt like friends and the compliments for them haven't yet stopped coming in. Thank you for making the evening such a fantastic success.

Sallie's Birthday Party, March 2018

Great band, great people, and one of the best excuses to get families and friends at a wedding up and dancing. Everyone enjoyed themselves, and with the whole package of live music and evening disco, Bowreed are surely one the best packages anyone can have for a wedding or any party!
