Frederique Dahan – London
A very nice band who did a great job at getting my (somewhat reluctant) party up on their feet dancing. Super friendly and nice.
Mary Waters – Royal Tunbridge Wells
We hired The Hilltop Ceilidh Band for a barn dance to celebrate a joint 21st and 60th birthday. The evening was a great success and I would thoroughly recommend James and will certainly be using the band in the future. Thank you everyone for an amazing evening
Doug Hudson, Rochester Sweeps Festival
One of the most dynamic young ceilidh bands, they are at home in a concert, pub or ceilidh environment
