Victoria M booked Craic Attack for their Wedding in Greater Manchester • April 2024
“We cannot recommend Craic Attack enough!! We booked them as a five piece with fiddler Richard and right from the first song they had the whole wedding party up and dancing. The energy they brought to our evening do was just stunning. People who normally won't be seen dead near a dance floor were up and dancing and throwing shapes! They consulted us on what set we would like before hand and they did not disappoint with a mix of pop, indie and traditional irish jigs that kept us all jumping from start to finish. The standard of musicianship from the whole band was outstanding and their level of professionalism was unrivalled. So many people have messaged us to say what an incredible band they were! We would not hesitate to book them again! Thanks Craic Attack - Vicky & Lee”

They know how to rock a hooley! They made our wedding reception truly so special, and myself and my husband would like to sincerely thank Craic Attack from the bottom of our hearts.
