An absolute hit

We hired their acoustic duo to close out a virtual customer event of mine, and it was a hit. Brian was easy to communicate with, and they were wonderful entertainers. If you're looking for a Celtic virtual concert, these are your guys.

Made our Shire wedding dreams come true!

My husband and I had a Tolkien inspired wedding. Our vision was to have guests feel as though they were stepping into the Shire for a party and feast of Irish food. The McIans were one of our favorite parts to the wedding day. Their upbeat music was the perfect ingredient to creating the energy and tone we wanted for the day. Classic and rock inspired Irish music was so amazing to hear through the atmosphere of the wedding day. For my walk down the aisle, I wanted them to play May It Be by Enya. Not only did they play it, but Patricia learned the words and her vocals were beyond amazing for it. I remember walking down the aisle and being so extremely happy to have my grandpa walking me, my husband-to be waiting for me, all while under the blue sky with May It Be being sung. It truly made the moment so magical. We also added the gifts you brought us to our gaming room! Thank you for everything, you were all so amazing. Even our vendors loved having you there during set up.

Awesome job

The McIans were wonderful and did a great job playing all of our favorite bands (Scythian, Gaelic Storm, and traditional Celtic songs). Every one had a great time.
