Phil really was incredible! He gave a group of 16 girls a barn dance lesson as part of a hen part. We all absolutely loved the session, especially the bride to be! Phil was extremely responsive the whole way through and was very accommodating with keeping it a surprise! I would highly recommend Phil, he is really talented and fantastic entertainment!

We could’ve have been happier with them. They were excellent. Polite, helpful, very professional and kept us entertained all night. We could not speak too highly of them and would recommend them without reservation. They also play music for a disco too which worked well for us.

Booked with Poptop

We couldn't have been happier with the whole PopTop experience. Phil got in touch and we quickly established what we needed for our event, which meant customising the band to a caller and an accordion. It worked perfectly in our garden with about 20 people dancing. Even those who'd initially been circumspect about a ceilidh thoroughly enjoyed the dancing. It really was wonderful and people are still talking about it.

From the moment of booking the band made the whole process so easy! They were easily contactable and quick to respond. The songs were amazing and had all of the guests enjoying a good dance and singalong! They created such a beautiful and fun atmosphere and were an amazing addition to our wedding!!! Such kind gentlemen with warm hearts too :-). I highly recommend booking!!

Fantastic evening, The Nestling Trust are delighted to give Pipley Ceilidh 5 stars! Our fundraising event was a huge success thanks to the great music and enthusiastic musicians and caller. Cannot speak too highly of them all, who went out of their way to ensure our guests had great fun - so much so we’ve had numerous requests to run a similar event soon! Very professional band with a very personal approach. Thank you.

"Very good. Only 4 musicians and a caller turned up but was fine. Could have done with some incidental music during dancers' rest breaks perhaps, but overall an excellent evening. The caller was particularly friendly and approachable and yet was still managing to get people to listen and dance, despite temperatures in the high 20s ! Thank you for your help."
