Pratie Heads - "Testimonials"
"I have received so very many great comments and compliments on your performance ... the festival was largely an "old-time" music event, so I personally was curious as to how an "old-time" audience would react to celtic ballads and instrumentals ... I think it was obvious to all that your group was one of the big hits of the day ... another group of your quality doesn't exist in this area. Your arrangements were ingenious, your voices blended beautifully, and your instrumental mastery impressed many of the musicians who were in the audience (not an easy thing to do)."

"I was most impressed by your performance at the fraternity house. Your humor and music won over a difficult audience. The students especially appreciated your approachability ... the group is hoping to have you back again next year. I am delighted and a little stunned!"

"I just wanted to say again how very much I enjoyed your concert last night and how pleased I am with your tape. The intimacy of your music is so rare in these days of heavily arranged Celtic music - a delightful change."
