With a vast wealth of experience, Paul will guide you through the process of planning the entertainment to make sure that you have a brilliant, enjoyable evening to remember. Read testimonials from some couples the ceilidh band have performed for recently.
HotScotch Ceilidh Band have a wealth of experience of providing high quality professional entertainment for all types of events and venues. Our services are tailored to your specific needs and we can also organise for other acts such as piper, singers and other musicians to suit the requirements of your event.
Our DJ package combining the Ceilidh with a Disco for the end of the night, makes for a great evening which caters to a wider range of musical tastes and our experienced DJ will gauge the crowd and keep the floor filled. You can send us a list of your favourite tracks to be included, or even a full playlist. We are very happy to take requests on the night and have a huge library of music to choose from covering all eras and styles.
If you are planning a Party or special event, having a ceilidh is one of the best ways to celebrate with all your friends. A fun, enjoyable evening that people will remember for a long time to come. We can also provide a professional disco and lighting package to compliment the ceilidh band, so that you can boogie away into the night after the ceilidh dancing has finished.
We also perform as a Jazz Trio of Saxophone, Piano and Drums playing for you a great selection of the classic Jazz standards. A nice idea for either your afternoon reception, or after dinner as a precursor to the evening ceilidh band.
"Thank you very much for your fabulous performance at our wedding! You are all superbly professional and immensely talented. your choice of music was perfect, the dance calling really helpful and clear and all the guests were raving about you three afterwards"
