» Testimonials

Just wanted to drop a line to say thank you so much for providing the entertainment for our wedding at Redworth Hall, most of our guests were Irish and the night before they were all complaining that the band we booked weren't from Ireland but you certainly proved them wrong. You've all been made honorary Irish men :-) Thanks again, see you at our anniversary bash
- Donna and James, Shildon, Co. Durham

We've used the Wild Murphys two years in a row for our St. Patrick's Night, and each time it's been a sellout they're booked again this year and I'm sure it will be a sellout again
- Mick (Ents. Director) Rolls Royce club, Derby

I have 3 shows a week at my Irish pub and very few can get the crowd going like Middi and his boys do. I wish they were down this way more often, I'd have them on weekly.
- Theresa, Swan and Helmet, Northampton

Can't thank you enough for playing the wake after my dads funeral, everyone commented on how much they enjoyed your music and how it lifted the mood of the occasion. My dad took me to see the Pogues every year when he was alive, he would have loved what you did.
