Tatiana hired Bass Rock Ceilidh Band for a Wedding (available in Greater Glasgow)

"We hired Colin for my boyfriends 30th birthday in Glasgow and he was absolutely the perfect choice! Communication was great, he arrived promptly to help with set up on the night and then led two brilliant sets. He was also very accomodating around our timings and arrangements with the cake etc. One guest commented that they had never seen such a good turnout on the dancefloor during a ceilidh. I was worried if the absence of a full band would make a difference, especially for the older guests, but Colin did such a brilliant job so this was the perfect choice for our party. Thank you Colin! Would highly recommend"
