WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

Dan and Siobhàn Benson
North East Wedding Clients
Durham Castle - April 2022

"Job very well done at Durham Castle everyone 
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘


Robert and the Emerald Thieves absolutely made our wedding... especially considering we took a gamble by booking a band we had never heard live. They were absolutely fantastic!

 

Soooo many guests have said you were brilliant, outstanding!

โ€‹

The mix of Irish and modern music was quality. We had the best day and were never off the dance-floor!!... that's because of you and the rest of the band.

You surpassed all expectations.

โ€‹

From the new Mr and Mrs Benson we want to send out heartfelt thanks for making our day the most wonderful day we could have ever asked for."

Slainté!!!

"I booked this amazing band for an event in Consett. They are brilliant musicians and lovely, friendly people, who accommodated our needs, going out of their way to make the night special and one to remember. 

โ€‹

I highly recommend Emerald Thieves to anyone who wants the best fun dancing to lively, exceptional music.

Our folks were on the dance floor from beginning to end and I can’t wait for the next event.

โ€‹

Emerald Thieves bring the party to the party!"

"A fantastic band of great players, with a cool sound" 

โ€‹

"We really enjoyed watching (and playing with) you guys. 

We've been up dancing tonight, but listen... I've been in a band with Rod for over sixty years and I had never seen him dance before now!

...that's saying something"
