We booked Capital Celtic for our son's wedding rehearsal party and were extremely pleased with their performance. The group added a touch of class and Irish laughter to the festivities. We received many compliments from our guests about the music. I highly recommend Capital Celtic to anyone seeking a first-class musical experience.

One week has past since our wedding and our guests are still talking about how amazing the music was during our ceremony. I cannot say enough about Capital Celtic, they put together an amazing music list and by the time my Groom kissed the Bride folks were on their feet clapping and foot stomping, which is EXACTLY what we wanted! They were responsive, flexible, and even came to our Chapel Rehearsal. They were also very flexible and agreeable with price negotiations. I can't recommend them enough and wish them the best of luck!

Capital Celtic recently played at a wedding celebration, which the bride and groom were from Ireland. They did an excellent job of meeting their needs and learning their special song requests. Despite the heat, it turned out to be a perfect day with AWESOME music played by Capital Celtic. |

Awesome group! We were so lucky to find Capital Celtic for our wedding reception this past January 1st. Aside from being great musicians, they were so easy to work with and such nice people. The music was wonderful, a great mix of lyrical and fast-paced fun. All our guests loved the music and many said it was the happiest wedding they'd attended in a long time--thanks in large part to Capital Celtic. I'd definitely hire them again!!

Christine R. on March 22, 2016
Capital Celtic played for my father's birthday in December and they were fantastic. Everything about the experience was wonderful, from booking to setting up to the actual performance. I found them incredibly easy to work with and wonderfully professional. Their set was energetic and fun - they played mainly Irish music with some more classic songs mixed in. They kept the crowd engaged and everyone thoroughly enjoyed them! I was very happy with my choice.

We happened to see Capital Celtic at Clydes during St. Patrick's Day. Their music really made the night. All are very talented musicians. Saw them again at Tally Ho as the warm up band for Gaelic Storm. A pleasant surprise and they got the house going!

We saw Capital Celtic at Nanny O'Briens on March 11th. They were great. They were entertaining and really engaged the crowd. I really enjoy Celtic music and specifically enjoy listen to the flute being played in a prominent way. It's normally such an underrated instrument. Great job, guys!
