Jonathan Latta
2. Franco
"Franco were amazing. They were always polite and friendly when I contacted them directly and were more than happy to take any requests I had about the performance on board. Our dance floor was full all night and everyone commented on how good a band they were. They were amazing with my guests and accommodated a few drunken song requests and even a drunken uncle asking for a sing into their mic. They truly made our wedding the night it was and their tracks were outstanding."
Nicole Mcfadyen
3. The Jets
"Excellent band. So many guests said they were the best wedding band they'd seen. The ceilidh tunes were brilliant, especially with the violin, and the dances were explained very well for the Irish guests. There was great communication in the run up to the wedding and we appreciated you learning our first dance song. Couldn't recommend highly enough!"
Emma Brown

They accommodated all our requests including the very important requests of upbeat songs only. Everyone was on their feet all night. Lots of our guests commented on how great Hugh’s vocals were and how great the band were in general. Highly recommended."
Louise Shaw
9. Bridges
"Bridges played at our wedding last weekend, They sounded fantastic, many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed them. They sounded professional and fun at the same time. They played a great mix of Ceilidh and covers throughout the night. The band were very friendly and came and chatted to us before the night and afterwards. I would highly recommend them."
Anna Carr-Gomm, Glasgow
10. White Doves
"White Doves were fantastic! Played a great mix of songs and the dance floor was never empty the whole night! We got so many compliments on the band everyone thoroughly enjoyed the night and I’m 100% sure it wouldn’t have been the same without the band."
Louise Curran, Glasgow
11. The Stylists
"The Stylists were fantastic and provided amazing entertainment for all of our wedding guests covering a wide range of songs. They were great to talk to before the event providing helpful information and were more than happy to have one of our guests sing a song with the band backing them, do some announcements and take a few song requests.. They had everyone up and dancing all through night and got a room full of people to do some ceilidh dances despite never having seen or participated in one before. Everyone has told us how much they enjoyed the band and the music. We're very happy to have gone with The Stylists and would recommend them to others."
Victoria Lindstrom
12. The Sleekit Beasties
"The Sleekit Beasties are unquestionably the best band I've ever seen at a wedding. They communicated with us easily and regularly (they were clearly more organised than we were!) and were easily able to accommodate our few requests. On the day, the band were also fantastic. They set up quickly, took the time to meet and discuss matters with us and then the absolutely smashed the roof off the place. Seriously, we couldn't have asked for a better band. They pitched between covers and ceilidh perfectly for the night. They called the ceilidh dances clearly and easily, even getting on the floor to demonstrate. Their energy was incredible and we've had no end of compliments for the band from our guests. We're incredibly grateful and so, so happy that they were able to perform for us on our wedding day. I'd have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone in future."
Hannes Neugebauer, Glasgow Green
13. Muzo-Matic
"The band were absolutely fantastic, we had so many comments about how good they were and the dance floor was always full! Also they were really lovely people and very accommodating. I could not fault them in any way and would highly recommend these guys!"
House For An Art Lover
Annie O'Donnell, Glasgow
14. The Vinyls
"The Vinyls were simply outstanding. The dance floor was packed from start to finish and they instantly got a feel for the crowd and what tunes to keep the party pumping. Huge thanks to all the band who were so classy and professional. Everyone made comment of what a fantastic party it was and that's squarely down the The Vinyls. I'll be thoroughly recommending them to everyone"
Austin Burke, Glasgow
15. Porkpie
"Absolutely outstanding. Great band. Had the place rocking. Don't think I've ever seen so many people dancing at a wedding. Was exactly what my wife and i were looking for music wise. Porkpie did not disappoint."
Dominic Rossi, Glasgow
16. The Royales
"The Royales are MASSIVELY accomplished performers, with some of their covers being better than the originals - and that is no exaggeration. What also brought home to us exactly how good they are were the hugely positive comments we then had over the following few days from our wedding guests; comments like "They were awesome!" were not uncommon. The Royales remind me very much of a band south of the border called The Overtures, who perform 60's covers with equal aplomb, though they lack the Scottish "edge" and musical experience that The Royales have in spades. We wanted a band who could cover lots of our favourite tracks (Scottish bands there too) as the theme of our wedding was Wedfest 2017 - a rock- & pop music-themed event, and the boys in The Royales didn't just hit the target, they hit the bull time and time again. Thank you Royales for rocking our wedding day! You are THE BEST!"
June Paton, Gartocharn
17. The Jammy Devils
"Although I was nervous about booking live entertainment through the internet the Music for Scotland website was excellent and this allied to your friendly advice made deciding on a band easy. Both yourself and your company have been thoroughly efficient and highly professional from start to finish and I would not hesitate to recommend you to others or hopefully use you again myself in the future.The Jammy Devils not only exceeded all expectations (and believe me expectations were high), they blew them away!! The party was awesome and the band were fantastic, brilliant, amazing. From the moment they started playing until the end of the evening the dance floor was full. Everybody was amazed at this great sounding band and we have had so many enthusiastic comments, truly I have lost count, the owner and staff of the venue (which plays live music every Friday night) said it was the best band that they had seen there, praise indeed."

18. Casio
"Casio were absolutely brilliant. Darren was really helpful in all his emails in the lead up to our Wedding and he was completely open to all of our suggestions as well. We wanted to offer something for everyone, and coming from a mixed background, this included some music that I am sure Darren and the rest of the band hadn't heard before. They played a DJ set for us to accommodate those requests, and then continued the evening with their own set, which was great! Everyone was on the dance floor and the music was perfect. I was even on the stage with the tambourine!! It was an unforgettable evening and we can't recommend Casio enough. All 4 of them were brilliant. Not only do they all have amazing voices but they had an array of instruments and they really got things going with their fun nature and personalities. Wish we could do it all over again!"
Shereen Fazeli, West Calder
19. The Strides
"After fruitlessly searching for some time at the start of the year for a wedding band for peak wedding season in July, I found the Strides on the Music for Scotland website. It was purely on the basis of the video clips and the fact that they were available that I went ahead and booked. We had no time to go and listen to them beforehand so were really just hoping for the best! Communication with Chris was excellent and we had a truly fantastic night with the dance floor filled the entire time. Everyone danced their socks off as their choice of music absolutely perfect. Despite the fact it was mid-heatwave and the temperature ridiculous they kept playing and we just kept on dancing!! They made a great job of our first dance and my new husband was blown away later that night by their version of the Smiths' "There is a light that never goes out" which they learned specially for me to surprise him and his Uni pals, all massive Smiths fans."

Fiona Henderson, Glasgow
20. Juniper
“Juniper were fantastic, they had a great range of songs and had everyone up on their feet.”
Samuel, Glasgow
“Great band! So full of energy and also had the place jumping!”
Jack,Glasgow
21. Ceildhdonia
"Thank you for all your help booking Ceilidhdonia. We were delighted with the band - they were absolutely fantastic. Dave was an exceptionally patient and amusing caller, especially as half of us didn't even know our left from our right. The music was great and all our guests had a fabulous time. Even the men who never dance were up on the floor. One of the highlights of the wedding for me was the final set they played where all our guests were up dancing and everyone was laughing and smiling. The only disappointment was that they couldn't play longer! We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them."
James And Anna Stevenson.
22. Seattle
"We've been meaning to get an email to you for a while now, but just wanted to again pass on our sincere appreciation for such a fantastic night at our wedding at the Drumossie Hotel in Inverness. They say a good band makes for a good wedding....a great band makes for a brilliant wedding, and that's exactly what ours was! You guys were absolutely fantastic, and so many people commented to that effect afterwards. You really put on a professional show, and the fact that the dance floor was practically full the entire night is testament to the fact that people were having a great time and loving the music. Please pass on our heart-felt thanks to the rest of the band, and we'll certainly be recommending you to our friends in the UK. Thanks again for making our wedding such a fun and memorable occasion."
Steph And Jarrod
23. The Apollos
"They were awesome! We absolutely loved them as did all our guests. They did a brilliant mix of songs and ceilidh and they were kind enough to learn all 3 special songs we requested even though they said they could only guarantee learning 1 - that meant so much to us! They also called the ceilidh dances really well which was great as it was the first time doing Scottish country dancing for a lot of our friends. We couldn't recommend them more! 10/10"
Rachel Aldridge
24. Giant
"Great friendly band who had guests up and dancing all night! Giant were excellent in getting people involved in the Ceilidh. Many of our guests came up to us and commented on how much they enjoyed them! Would highly recommend."
Neil & Iona Bayliss
25. The New Waves
"The New Waves were incredible! People were commenting all night and even after the wedding. Really judged the guests well and were very professional. We were worried that they would be noticed when setting up (set up was in the same room as we were eating), but we didn't notice them at all! Really made the evening part of the wedding and had everyone dancing all night! Thank you for such a superb night!!"
Jan & Jack Wallace
