Reviews

We don't want to appear big headed, but ...

"Easy process through Hireaband - I've used them through our last few events and all been super straightforward and their team are very friendly.
The band themselves were great - good communication before and during the event, on time and super friendly. The performance itself was great - everyone was up on the dancefloor at the end of the night, they took requests from the team and all sounded absolutely perfect. Couldn't recommend the band enough to anyone!

"The Kuil were absolutely amazing! They played a great set of songs and read the room brilliantly with their choices. They learned our first dance from scratch and performed it really well. We loved the interactive aspect with the main singer and the dance floor was full all night! Couldn't recommend enough."

"I just want to say the biggest thank you to The Kuil. All I heard all night was how amazing you are and I couldn’t agree more, your performance was absolutely phenomenal. You kept the party going all night, the dance floor was full from the first song until the last one. Genuinely the nicest group of guys, nothing is ever too much trouble. I will be recommending you to anyone who will listen! "

"The Kuil were absolutely brilliant. Such a good mix of music from the 50s right through to the modern day classics. We've had guests of all ages and various musical tastes raving about them since. They absolutely nailed our first dance and Shawn the frontman knew exactly how to work the crowd and had the dancefloor totally packed. Ceilidh set went down a treat too. Thanks so much guys, I'd highly recommend The Kuil to anyone."

"Hireaband and the Kuil were brilliant for our recent wedding. The process of finding an entertainer and booking then was made easy through the website. Communication from the team and the band was also brilliant and they were quick to answer any questions. The Kuil were fantastic for our wedding, they clearly love what they do and were brilliant at working the crowd - the dancefloor was always full. We received loads of comments from guests on how good they were. We would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for entertainers! "

"Firstly Hireaband kept in regular contact and forwarded all details and confirmed every part of the booking from beginning to end, I cannot fault this and would not hesitate to recommend using hireaband or in using them for future functions.

The band, The Kuil, were top notch from beginning to end. They were in contact to get details of the venue who they then contacted to make arrangements, they had no problems with our first dance request, which was performed magnificently, and arrived early and played as long or longer than they had said.
Having seen them at my friends wedding last year we knew what we were getting and if anything they were even better !!! Setting up and packing up was so slick it went largely unnoticed you can tell that they are a well oiled machine. Performance was awesome !! A cracking mix of contemporary and older tunes with excellent vocals and tight musical performance, this was commented on by many of the guests.
Truely the icing on the cake and one of the highlights of a great day, the only thing that I would say is that for guys who are this professional and slick they probably do not charge enough !!

Top class all round, we are truly impressed with everything which we received. Thanks to hire a band and The Kuil take a bow.

"The Kuill provided top class entertainment from the very start. Great set list, great sound and vocals and kept the night going for my wife’s 60th birthday party. Covered a huge selection of music that had our family and friends dancing all night. Loads of guests commented on how good they were. Couldn’t fault the guys, and they wrapped up the night with our requested last song. Brilliant band, defo recommend."

"The Kuil were absolutely outstanding and went above and beyond for our day! They learned our first dance song and initially said they were prioritising learning first dances and so would need to play our dad & daughter dance from a recording which was completely understandable. A few days before our wedding I received a text from a band member that they had found time to learn it and would play it live and it was amazing! The dancefloor was full all night and everyone commented on how amazing there were. For what we paid the performance was just outstanding and I cannot recommend them enough! If you are thinking of a band, the Kuil are the ones to book!!!"

"Wow! Where do I start? From the first email where hireaband were very patient and helpful to the band getting in touch to make sure all the finer details were sorted, we were blown away. Nothing was too much of a hassle and the band paid particular attention to detail, learning about our club/event before they turned up. The dance floor was never empty all night - they certainly do know how to keep everyone on their feet. Makes a huge difference having a band that you know is interested in being at your event. Will 100% recommend."

"We booked The Kuil for our wedding after hearing them play at Brewhemia in Edinburgh and we were not disappointed! I spoke with Maurice in the build up to the wedding and they learned our first dance, which went down a storm. Everyone was on the dancefloor the whole time they were playing, we especially loved the 30 minute mash-up! They are really up for a party! We have had so many friends and family asking about The Kuil and I'm really hoping we'll get the chance to see them at another wedding soon! Until then we'll be back at Brewhemia to see the guys filling the dance floor with all our friends! Great job guys, and thank you so much for making the journey all the way to John O Groats for us!

I would highly recommend booking The Kuil. The music they played was fantastic and got all of our guests up dancing! They were also very nice and polite to speak to. They learned our first dance song and although it was not their usual type of music, they did an amazing job.

"We booked The Kuil for our end of year university ball and they played a big part in what was an amazing night. The dance floor was filled the full night and they were very flexible with their set by playing a great range of songs, which suited our younger age group, and ceilidh dances. I was very impressed not only by their sound but professionalism. Throughout the organisation of the event they were so easy to contact and happy to take song requests and any other questions we had to make sure that the event went smoothly. Genuine nice guys with a great band, at a great price, would highly recommend!"
