Testimonials
"Like a Broadway show!"
“On behalf of my new wife and myself, we would like to thank you guys so much. You made our day so special. Everyone was raving about the music at the church. People came up to us and said that they felt like they were at a concert or Broadway show the music was that powerful! Then the minute you guys opened up with our first dance - which you guys nailed - you had the dance floor full the whole night and worked the crowd like true professionals. People were so impressed, we will be highly recommending you guys to anyone looking for a wedding band. Thanks so much for being apart of our day”
Katie & Gavin - Cabra Castle"Simply the best!"
“My daughter booked the Madisons because I had heard Nigel sing on many previous occasions and had highly recommended him. I am so glad I did as the Madisons made her day a day to remember. They were absolutely fantastic and everyone who was there said the band were the best they had ever heard. The floor was never empty and we were all wrecked from dancing. Nigel sang earlier in the day before the meal and everyone was singing along. I cannot recommend this band highly enough to anyone looking for a wedding band. They are professional, entertaining and simply the best”
Patricia Flanagan"Dancefloor was packed all night!"
“The Madisons were excellent from day one so easy to deal with and were always more than willing to answer any queries we had. The performance at the wedding exceeded our expectations and added so much to the day, The dancefloor was packed all night with guests both young and old and the guys put so much energy into their performance which impressed everyone. Really couldn't recommend the Madisons highly enough.”
Michelle & Thomas"You will not be disappointed!"
“Absolutely fantastic band! I checked out a few bands and these were definitely the stand out band. Easy to deal with, very accommodating, vocally and instrumentally excellent, brilliant choice of songs and had the dancefloor full from start to finish. Mingled with the crowd and compliments still coming from all our guests on the Madisons. Highly recommend you will not be disappointed!”
Anna & Peter"Unbelieveable!"
“Brendan was so responsive and flexible to all my million questions and always had the best solutions. He was also accommodating when I had last minute changes and wanted to add in cocktail reception. It was tricky for us as we were planning the wedding from Canada, but Brendan was so kind and helpful and hopped onto the phone to ensure everything was fine. The wedding...Holy cow these guys are unbelievable! The dance floor was packed. They played great hits all night long, interacted with the crowd and really know how to get the party started! Nigel was great- so personable with the crowd as well. When they transitioned into the DJ part, I didn’t even notice, everything was done so smoothly. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the band was and how great they made the whole night. I recommend them one million percent.”
Lara & Sean - Darver Castle"Unreal stage presence!"
"After seeing a multiple of bands they were head and shoulders above the rest. We contacted Brendan and booked them immediately without hesitation. The night itself couldn't have went any better with a constantly full floor and great music to match. The Madisons are full of enthusiasm, talent, class and come across as a band that are enjoying the craic as much as the guests. Nigel has unreal stage presence with an unreal voice with great back up from the rest of the band. We couldn't recommend these lads enough. We still here regular compliments from our guests to this day about how they were the best band they've seen at any wedding and our hotel has also recommended the lads to couples since our wedding. Thanks a million again lads ye made the day for us!!! Kind Regards Mick and Roisin"
Mick & Roisin - Anner Hotel"Can't recommend these guys enough"
"We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band. Not only are the guys talented, professional and great at what they do, they are a lovely bunch of people to deal with. They made the whole day very personal and added little touches that I don't think I've ever seen with other wedding bands. They are so easy to deal with and very flexible with song choices. The floor was full all night and we had great compliments afterwards at how good they were. The DJ service was also excellent, they played all our old tunes and the dance floor was still hopping at 2am! I cannot recommend these guys enough. Thanks again Brendan, Nigel and Co. for a fantastic night of entertainment."
Rebecca & Jason - Castle Dargan"A fantastic wedding band!"
"The Madisons are just a fantastic wedding band. They are so versatile and really get the crowd going. They cater for all genres from the Old Time Waltz to good old fashioned rock. We spent many hours (and cups of tea) with Brendan talking through what we wanted. Nigel and James also provided the music and song for our ceremony and it had not only me in tears. In fact one guest even said that they would vote for lead singer Nigel in The Voice as he had made him cry during the ceremony. They learned our song choices no problem and played them to perfection. Andrew also provided the DJ set after the band and again no request was a problem. The hotel has a really big dance floor but it was full all night and Nigel even joined into a train/conga line around the dance floor while still singing note perfect. These guys are true professionals, they care about what they do and it shows."
Anne-Marie & Paul - Bloomfield Hotel"Our guests booked them for their own wedding!"
"We got rave reviews from all our guests after having the lads perform at our wedding. Nigel and James performed in the church and my only regret is not having had a video so we could listen to their performance again. We were encouraged to choose whatever we wished for and that we did! Went from deeply emotive to the party vibe seamlessly! The band and particularly Brendan were fantastic to deal with. Extremely professional, prompt responses to any queries, willing to give loads of their time if needed and most importantly all amazing musicians in their own right. I'm not the best dancer and was worried about keeping the floor full. They accommodated requests and more importantly judged the crowd and kept the party going until the end of the DJ set. They also accommodated a family dance performance and were incredibly easy going about it. The atmosphere they created was fantastic and made the celebration for us. Guests booked them for their own wedding on the day after hearing them."
Claire & Robbie - Ballymascanlon Hotel"Perfect!"
"There's only one word to describe The Madisons - perfect. From the day we first contacted them they were so professional and yet personal. Our contact was Brendan and he replied to every text and e-mail we sent him immediately. They had no problem learning the songs we asked them to perform for us even though they were lesser known songs. On the day itself they were excellent. They provided piano at the drinks reception and the DJ also and the transition from the band to the DJ was immediate. We couldn't have been happier with them. The dance floor was full all night and the addition of some Christmas songs was a nice touch! We have been complimented ever since on how great they were and I would definitely recommend them."
Siobhan & Aidan"Simply amazing!"
"You would be mad not to book the Madisons for your wedding! They are simply amazing; full of talent, energy and chemistry, they had our guests on the floor all night. They even played a few Pearl Jam songs just for us. We love our live music, so it was important for us to choose a brilliant band, and everyone commented on how great they were. They played a perfect mix and even had the aunties and uncles out for a waltz. Thanks again guys for making our day epic!"
