Folk Bands for hire in Lanarkshire
Latest reviews of our Folk Bands in Lanarkshire
"Douglas and Moss played for our wedding recently. They were absolutely fantastic. I can't recommend them highly enough. All the guests were complete novices with Ceilidh but they were magnificent in making the dances accessible, getting everyone on their feet. They're great musicians and, on top of that, genuinely lovely people."

"We really enjoyed having the Cavemen at our wedding, they were outstanding. They learned the song for our first dance and played it beautifully. They played a mixture of songs from their repertoire and some Ceilidh dances too, which they led us through really well. Everyone really enjoyed it. Great band."

FAQs about hiring Folk bands in Lanarkshire
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any folk band play my favourite song?
Professional folk bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that folk bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the folk band's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do folk bands take to set up?
Your folk band will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the folk band prior to their arrival.
My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our folk bands are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our folk bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
