Perfect band

They were amazing! Very sweet people and very talented. Everyone at the event mentioned how great they were and asked if they were my friends because the music fit the event perfectly (never met them in person until the day of the event). Several of the people are in bands themselves and complemented me in my choice. I would highly recommend them for your next event. You can't go wrong choosing them!

Talent + Warm Style + Flexibility + Smiles

Monica and Patrick played at our home 2 consecutive evenings in a rather cool garage where it was hard to keep their instruments in tune! It was an Irish theme but they asked for some of our favorites in advance and included them in the song set. We liked how they provided some context on the Irish tunes - a bit of history and some story telling. Their harmonies are nice and mellow, and they also took some requests. They were low maintenance and high entertainment value!

Perfect Birthday Celebration

Monica and Patrick were the perfect performers for my brother's 70th birthday celebration. Not only are they talented musicians and singers, they know a huge variety of music and are enthusiastic and flexible, open to many requests. They put just enough of an original spin on old and new favorites alike to make each familiar song seem like their own. I highly recommend Dublin Down for any type of event and won't hesitate to book them again. They helped make my brother's birthday truly memorable!

Wildly Talented and Amazing Duo

Dublin Down is by far the greatest band around! Monica and Patrick are insanely talented musicians and we, along with our family and friends, thoroughly enjoyed their performance! We hired them for two days for my husband’s 40th Irish Birthday. When covid hit, I had to cancel the large party and decided to split it into two smaller outdoor gatherings. I’m so glad we did it that way because we got to enjoy Dublin Down twice! Aside from their amazing vocals and performance, Monica and Patrick were very accommodating and easy to work with. They were super down to earth, prompt and great communicators! My only regret was that I didn’t hire them for the rest of the week, because we need more Dublin Down! We’ll be sure to hire them again for our next big event! thanks for everything guys! Pics to come!

Book Dublin Down!

I'd like to start with a three word review: Book Dublin Down.

We hired them to play a family party with about twenty-five guests. They delivered an energetic performance that made the gathering feel bigger than it was.

Leading up to the event they were professional to deal with and eager to hear our suggestions. We requested a couple of songs ahead of time and they took the time to learn them and then played them beautifully at our party. They arrived early to set up and were ready to go at the time we scheduled.

It was fun to hear their covers of songs by James Taylor, The Beatles, and David Bowie just to name a few. It was equally enjoyable to hear some of the Irish and Celtic songs that we weren't as familiar with. Patrick and Monica are both talented singers and multi-instrumentalists who play with obvious joy and that created a fun atmosphere for everyone in attendance.

They helped create a memorable event and our guests commented on how special it was for Dublin Down to share the afternoon with us. They were great!
