HTH

These are Galway based but I highly recommend them. Had them for ours & guests still talking about them http://www.bumblebeehoney.com/

Hi Blued We are getting married in Sligo and we have booked The Brian McDermott band. Have heard nothing but good reports about them.

Am from Sligo so I wish I could help you.. was at weddings in Sligo but of course can't remember the name of the bands.. haven't lived in Sligo for years.. sorry can't be any help..

I'm getting married in Mayo. We're having a band called Concord. Great lively band for a wedding. Have heard them at loads of weddings.

Hi, im from Sligo and for our wedding recently we had a band from Galway called Heatwave. They were brilliant, had everyone up on the dance floor all night, everyone commented about how great they were. [/url] http://www.heatwaveband.ie/

You don't have to have a band from where you are having the reception. Most Bands will travel and some don't look for extra. We have seen Weightless Astronauts who were very good in the quays in Galway and are going to see Quantum. We have also seen Brian McDermott band, not to my taste, but are a good band.

I second Brian McDermott band. Great lead singer and play wide variey of "wedding" style music, something for everyone IMO! I've booked them for my Sligo wedding

Anyone know anything about 'The Whiskey River Band', someone recommended them to us and they are available for our wedding. The Urge are another one a friend recommended. Anyone any feed back on either of these? We are just looking for a band to keep people dancing and to be a bit of craic too interacting with the crowd and all.
