"The Peatheads Celtic Band"

~ Irish & Scottish Music - For Any Occasion ~

"My amazing mother passed unexpectedly and she had spent her 83rd birthday dancing jigs in a a pub in Ireland with her newly found cousins. So I wanted to throw a wake that would honor her fire and spirit. I knew an Irish Pub Band was essential. The Peatheads MADE THE WAKE PERFECT. They sensed the mood perfectly and played sad Irish music right after the memorial which so beautifully provided a moment of reverence. Then they swung into great upbeat pub band music. They were perfect. Every guest had a fantastic time and there were lots of tears and laughter. God bless you, Peatheads."

"100,000 Thank You's to the Wonderful Peatheads ! What a GREAT BAND ! Everything was perfect. We Love you all; Mike, Stephanie & Greg ! This is the first time we had a band at this house. The house is in the middle of a remodel. Mike showed up early. Made great suggestions on how to set up and helped with everything. Many of my guest thought the Peatheads were my relatives and not a hire band. By the end of the night they became family. Their musicianship and repertoire was second to none. We had about 40 people dancing and we demanded and got several encores. We will hire them again. All my guest are asking when is the next time. THANK YOU & MUCH LOVE !"

"These folks were amazing. Mike was quick to answer all of my emails and was very accommodating (we made requests about certain songs, tempos, etc). There were very easy and pleasant to deal with and handled everything very professionally. I didn't have to worry at all throughout the night (which is great for a bride)! And our guests loved them. Definitely recommended!"
