“The Whiskey Priests have played at Uttoxeter Racecourse several times over the last few years and have never let us down. Firstly, and this is important, they are nice guys to deal with and professional to the end. Always on time , they bring their own PA and always give a quality performance of Irish singalong dance along covers!

Thanks to The Whiskey Priests this years St Patrick's race day event was a total sellout. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for any event or party. ” Read more

They were amazing and got everybody in the right mood for the celebrations. We have great videos, photos and memories of a night where they provided a brilliant traditional Irish folk soundtrack with people of all ages on the dance floor having a great time. We were also incredibly pleased with how communicative and hands-on Padraig was with us leading up to the night, checking in with us, making sure everything was in order and tailoring the set to suit our needs. We can't wait to see you guys play again and will certainly book you for any future events & celebrations we're planning!” Read more

Gary G booked Craic It Up for their party

“Lilac, Hilary and Remko recently played at a private party I organised for my wife's 50th Birthday and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. They were everything you would want a band to be - helpful and adaptable in terms of agreeing the set list, professional and communicative throughout, incredibly efficient on set-up and ultimately outstanding performers. Not just in terms of playing and si...”“Lilac, Hilary and Remko recently played at a private party I organised for my wife's 50th Birthday and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. They were everything you would want a band to be - helpful and adaptable in terms of agreeing the set list, professional and communicative throughout, incredibly efficient on set-up and ultimately outstanding performers. Not just in terms of playing and singing, but also in terms of stagecraft and working the crowd. We had an amazing knees-up dancing to Irish reels, folk songs and modern Irish hits in rapid rotation. Not only that but the guys hung on for a couple of hours after the performance and chatted with all of the guests and were a tremendous addition to the bonhomie of the evening. Snap them up, they are a rare and delightful band.” Read more

“We absolutely loved working with the band from start to finish. They delivered a magical atmosphere that our guests are still talking about. Their music was very inclusive, playing a variety of tunes for a diverse crowd. They felt more like old friends or guests than someone we’d hired. We would absolutely recommend them!”

“Recently hired Lilac and Country Cool for our country themed wedding - they were amazing ? Lilac’s attention to detail in compiling the set list and incorporating some of our chosen songs was great and she communicated with us throughout the whole process.

Lilac’s attention to detail in compiling the set list and incorporating some of our chosen songs was great and she communicated with us throughout the whole process. On the night they set themselves up without disturbing us and the set, lights and sound were good quality. They were very helpful in playing our own playlists in between. Lilac’s voice is fantastic and many guests commented on how good she was. The line dancing was great fun and had all our guests up and joining in. They helped make our wedding a day to remember” Read more

“Country Cool recently played at our wedding in our back garden and they were incredible! Everybody was up swinging each other around to Cotton Eye Joe and other great hits. Lilac and her band were perfect for such a mixed age group and we all had fun trying out line dancing, we would like to thank Country Cool for making our day so fun and a day our guests are still talking about!”
