Strum & Drum is an acoustic duo based in Scotland, performing a heartfelt mix of pop, rock, and country covers. Our line-up features acoustic guitar, vocals, and cajón percussion – a compact setup that delivers a full, warm sound perfect for intimate settings and lively parties alike. We bring audiences a setlist packed with sing-along favourites from artists such as Paolo Nutini, Ed Sheeran, The Eagles, Johnny Cash, and many more. We formed Strum & Drum in 2025 with the idea of creating music that feels personal and uplifting. Both of us have years of experience playing in bands, at festivals, and private events across Scotland. This project grew out of a shared passion for acoustic music and a love of bringing people together through live performance. What makes us stand out is our focus on connection: we adapt our setlists to suit the crowd, whether it’s a wedding, a relaxed pub evening, or a lively party. Our acoustic setup makes us flexible – we can perform in small venues without overpowering the space, or bring energy to a bigger crowd with upbeat rhythms and engaging arrangements. Professionalism is at the heart of what we do. From the first message to the final encore, we make sure booking us is easy and stress-free. We bring our own equipment, arrive on time, and work closely with organisers to make every event run smoothly. Whether you want a gentle acoustic background for a drinks reception or a set full of dancing tunes for your evening entertainment, Strum & Drum is here to make your event memorable. Available for bookings across Scotland – get in touch to discuss your date!

Customer questions

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

Yes – the line-up you see in our videos is the same duo who will perform at your event. If anything unexpected happens (illness, emergency), we have trusted musicians we work with who can step in, so you’ll still get the same quality performance.

Do you have different line-up options?

Our standard line-up is an acoustic duo – vocals, guitar and cajon/drums. If needed, we can arrange a solo option (just guitar & vocals) or add extra musicians for a bigger sound. Get in touch to discuss your event needs!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We understand that plans can change! Small timing adjustments are usually fine – just let us know as soon as possible. For major changes (like a different start time or longer sets), we’ll do our best to accommodate if our schedule allows.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes! We can play background music through our PA before, between, and after our sets to keep the atmosphere going. If you’d like us to keep the music running after our live performance finishes (like a DJ playlist), we can do that too for a small extra fee.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually need about 45–60 minutes to set up and soundcheck before the first set. If your event is large or requires extra equipment, we may ask for a bit more time to ensure everything sounds perfect.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Yes! We’re happy for you to choose your favourites from our set list, and we’ll build the show around them. If there are a few special songs we don’t know yet, we can usually learn them with enough notice – just let us know in advance.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes – our quote always includes our full PA system, so you don’t need to hire extra sound equipment. We usually only need a small corner or 3×2 m space to set up comfortably.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Absolutely! If the song is already on our set list, we’ll happily include it. If it’s a special song we don’t know yet, we can usually learn it with enough notice. We charge a small rehearsal fee (£30) for this service to make sure it sounds perfect on the day.
