Reviews

We had the most incredible experience with HotScotch Ceilidh Band! They were absolutely amazing from start to finish and made our wedding unforgettable. What truly blew us away was their flexibility and willingness to accommodate a special request. To honor my partner's heritage, they agreed to play a few songs for a Horo (the Bulgarian version of a Ceilidh). It beautifully brought both sides of our families/friends together, as guests from each side took turns teaching each other the different traditional dances. The dance floor was packed, and the energy was insane. The band members were so much fun, highly professional, and brought the perfect vibe to our celebration. If you want a band that goes above and beyond to make your night special, look no further!

Hotscotch were absolutely fantastic! One of the most important things for us on our wedding day was the music and the dancing and we couldn’t have been happier. The ceilidh was brilliant- the music filled the room with cheer, the dances were well called and everyone felt included. The dance floor was always packed and many of our guests told us how it was the best ceilidh they had been to! We chose to split the night between the ceilidh and a disco. We finished the party with over an hour of back to back hits. The disco lights really brought the party vibe and we were so delighted to have such a full and happy dance floor. The band’s communication has also been excellent throughout. We would really recommend them!

Absolutely amazing band - so so happy to have had them for our wedding. Brilliant energy and absolutely loved having them play, they created a brilliant atmosphere and we all had the best time. Loved having them play and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone. They were utterly incredible and so accommodating for our first dance and played it perfectly.

We hired HotScotch Ceilidh Band for our wedding reception for both ceilidh and disco in October! Would highly recommend!!! Communication was excellent throughout and all very professional. The music was phenomenal! And we especially enjoyed having the accordion sound in the band, which is often difficult to find. Everyone had such an amazing time and we had many international guests who joined in easily with clear instructions throughout! Would love to attend one of their ceilidh events in the future!! Thank you again Paul and the team!
