Testimonials for Carouse
Hi Brendan,
Just a quick word from Andrew and I to thank you so much for the great job you did playing at our wedding in December. We loved the music right through the day and you really made a great day even better for us both. We are still getting compliments from guests about the music and lots of people have told us that you are the best band they have ever heard at a wedding. Thanks again for adding to our special day, and hopefully we'll get the chance to hear you play again sometime soon.
Best of luck,
Eimear and Andrew Dec 2011
Hi Brendan,
Just want to say thanks again. You all played a stormer! Every aspect of what you did was brilliant, the music for every part of our day fitting in perfectly! All of our guests could not get over how great you were, we were over the moon that we chose you!!
So thanks again,
Married life going well so far, the first month and a half has been all we've
dreamed of!

I just wanted to send you a quick thank you for the wonderful performance you gave at my wedding at Waterford Castle. It was a small group, with a good amount of non-dancers and you and the boys were able to get even the most reluctant dancers on the floor. People were talking about your performance for days after. Many of the guests came up to me later and asked who the band was and do they have a CD. If only we could import you boys to the states!!
Matt and I were so happy with Carouse - you were everything I wanted and it was a pleasure to work with you. I took a chance and left most of the details to you and you came up with a fabulous playset that fit the bill perfectly. It's not easy to plan a wedding from abroad but you helped make it easy, so thank you for that. Keep us posted if any of you come out with a CD in the future!

Hi Brendan
We have returned home still reliving in the great night we had at the wedding, and we wanted to say that the night was truly made by Carouse, you are all true professionals and we cannot believe again from that opening song Galway girl how good you were and the looks on all the faces when we looked at each-other and thought ....and said.....THESE BOYS ARE GREAT!
You have not heard the last from us as we have to sit down and write a great letter of appreciation, but as we are home here in Canada and it been over a week we just wanted to let you know that you are true musicians...... and even put up with us taking the mic! which I am sure people have died over less he he! well thanks again best of luck to you all boys!

Hi Brendan
Just like to say a massive thank you and the band for an incredible night. Carouse topped off what was an amazing wedding day at Borris House. We were was completely blown away by the sound quality and the energy of the band, keeping our guest constantly on the dance floor for 3 hours solid, was an impressive feet! . I would also like to thank you for your patience since our speeches went on slightly longer than expected and you still managed to fit in our request of "You can call me Al" by Paul Simon. I would highly recommend you to anyone considering hiring you for a potential wedding/function. You were an awesome crack
Many thanks

Hi Brendan
We just wanted to say thank you so much for doing an amazing job at our wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better band at the church or reception and our guests were gob smacked by your performance. Thanks again for contributing enormously to the best day we've ever had :)
(sorry for the cliche but it's true!)
We're back in NZ now and straight into work. Can't believe the wedding was a month ago!
Anyway all the best to you and the rest of the band.
Thanks again,
Lesley and Steve
...it takes a very special band to get us shy and modest yanks up and dancing and you guy are it!
Many thanks,
From your fans at Joanie's wedding

Hi Brendan,
A very big thank you to you and the rest of the band for making my husband's 40th a very memorable night. The music was fantastic evidenced by a full dance floor for 2 hours. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anybody looking for a really brilliant band.
Thanks again and I really hope to see you all again soon,
Gillian
To Whom it May Concern
Ballinacurra House Kinsale is a premium venue where we only try to source the best of everything for our clients.
We have been using Carouse to play numerous events for us including Weddings and Corporate Gigs.
We continue to rebook them. We have to make the additional effort of bringing them down from Waterford to Kinsale, due to the high quality of their musicianship, professionalism and presentation. This is despite being able to source good local Cork musicians and it demonstrates the level at which they play at.

Hi
We got married the 19th of July and Carous played. We went for the full package which included the church music, acoustic set before the meal, the whole band played at the reception and they also did the disco.
I found Carouse very professional to deal with and they always accommodated all my requests. I felt that the package I went for was very reasonable considering they played great music for the whole day.
Music was very important for us on the wedding day and Carouse exceeded all our expectations
The church music was very beautiful
The dance floor was full all night and many guess commented on all the music from the church all the way through to the disco because carouse provided all the music and music flowed all day. Carouse play a wide range of music as you will see from the play list. Music is such an important part of the wedding day and Carouse made our day so special.
Since I got married I have been recommending Carouse to anyone who needs music for a party. They are a fanastic band who are reliable, professional and so nice to deal with and they created great music that made our wedding day the best day of our life's.
Thanks Carouse
love

Hi Brendan
Just wanted to say a very, very, very big THANKS to yourself and the lads. Everything was pitch perfect and I don't just mean the playing alone, which was astonishingly excellent, but even the atmosphere generated by having such a good bunch of lads hangin' around the place. It was a genuine joy to have you all there for the day.
Johhny & Maria
Just a quick message to you and Hugh to thank you for the beautiful music which helped to make our wedding ceremony so special to us.
We received compliments from so many guests (including lots of music snobs!) who raved about how lovely your music was. We've also been asked about all the songs, so it would be great if you could remind
me...
Walking down the aisle was an incredible experience anyway but hearing one my favourite songs performed so beautifully made it even
more memorable.
Thanks again,
Catriona + Marc

Just a word of thanks to you for the music you played at our wedding.
Our guests loved the music, the real drums were a huge hit. Everyone who wanted to talk could talk and still enjoy the music, and you kept tthe floor full.
A special word of thanks for playing Metallica's 'Nothing else matters' so well . Even non - Metallica fans loved it. Very impressed. You are pure gentlemen to deal with.
Best wishes,
John and Louise Meany.
On behalf of the Waterford Hunt Ball Committee and everyone who was at the ball I would like to thank you for putting on such a professional show, the night was a great success thanks mainly to the dance floor being full throughout the whole night. The music was excellent I would have no hesitation in recommending this band for any corporate or hunt ball function.
Kind regards

I have now enjoyed two live shows by Carouse: at my wedding party in Dublin and my friend's wedding reception in Cork. They put on an incredible show! From the first few bars of guitars, fiddles and drums swinging and humming joyously, the dance floor was packed. The musicians are marvellous, the performances full of energy and the craic mighty. Carouse do trad, 60's beat pop, blues rock, and the rest if you like. A brilliant band for any occasion, but especially if you want to celebrate!
