"I wanted to thank you, for such incredible performances. We had so many comments and compliments about you all. You all added some magic to our day. I am so sorry, I didn't get a chance to say thank you or goodbye in person. I was whisked away to enter the tipi and I think that is when you went home. I hope you were well looked after and I would love to leave you a review, to say thank you. Thanks again, Victoria"

"Your very competent performance was varied, crowd pleasing, infectious and memorable. It was good to see the level of audience participation and the expert way you interacted with the guests. Can't wait to see you again in the New Year! You seem to have an ever-growing repertoire of current songs which encourages the audience to join in and creates even more fun for everybody."

"Hi Bradley, Thank you so much for Saturday! You have honestly been an absolute pleasure to deal with which makes a huge difference within the stress of an event. It's very rare our piano ever gets played so it was wonderful to listen to you playing it so beautifully during the champagne reception. Simply stunning. Thank you for letting my cousin and Grandad join in for a duet :) I'm certain that we will be in touch again soon for another family event. All the best, Hannah."

"We wanted to thank the band for such as great evening. I was told that several of my guests were not the "dancing type" however all said that they enjoyed the band even if they were only listening to the music. We thought they were great! I would particularly like to thank them for letting the crazy, slightly intoxicated "musicians" in the family use the stage and their instruments during the evening, even though some of the performances were cringe worthy at times! It actually added to the funny memories of the evening and kept those crazy family members happy! Many thanks again for such as wonderful evening. "

We could not get over how good you sounded, and the amount of people who commented on the band I know everyone felt the same. I loved how involved with us the singer was, and also we thought the band were so lovely and accommodating. We were thrilled we booked you!!! I’m so glad you were looked after, as honestly you really did make the night for us!! Also on a side note but all the ladies thought you were all very good looking haha!! Also a lot of people said they would think of booking you, as you were so good! Thank you again for making our night so special!! Couldn’t have wished for it to be better, and I’ve dreamed of that since I was little – fantastic!!"

"We came across Gerry from web reviews on this site. Our vision was to find an accordonist who could accompany our pre-wedding groom arrival procession playing upbeat and beat tunes. Gerry was very enthusiastic and open to our requests and a pleasure to work with. The event and music was lovely so thankyou to Gerry and his trumpet player colleague who made the day very special.

"I absolutely loved this pair. I recently planned a wedding in Duns, Scotland and Sally & Graham drove over an hour to play about 3 hours at my event. Everything went completely perfectly, from our communication beforehand, the song list, them adding songs I requested, the location and sound quality for their sets, and setup/tear down. I wanted a relaxed, acoustic sound with talented musicians definitely not a DJ party wedding band, so this duo was perfect for that. This website and this band are excellent value for the range and, again, quality of the music, 100% worth the price and more. Before the event, I gave them some some requests including Africa by Toto, which they REWROTE and learned in their own style (HUGE HIT and really surprised my husband). Also we coordinated a place for them to setup, the times of the sets, and what meals they wanted to have, and everything went off without a hitch. They were also so very sweet and wonderful people that they really impressed all my guests who were complimentary and wondering where I found such an amazing band. One of the best things about the Scotswood Acoustic Duo is how their song list covers a huge variety of music that they somehow play all equally wonderfully. So everyone's music tastes were satisfied and it made for very interesting listening, this was one of the compliments I heard alot. There are just so many nice things to say, please book this band and get them doing music full time because they are AMAZING!"

"Thank you for singing me down the aisle on our wedding day acaapella, especially travelling all the way to Wales. It made the perfect touch. Robert Burns would have loved it too. Absolutely everything from the booking right down to our conversations when ever I needed. Thank you for all of it, you made it beautifully easy."

"Oh what a night...! Can't thank the 'Yorkshire Oompah Band' enough for making my 40th Birthday a night to remember. If you want a birthday that's simply amazing then these are your guys. Incredible musicians & incredible fun!"

"This is an amazing ensemble, and I really enjoyed their live performance. Everything sounds quite harmonic, including the trumpet which is probably the uniqueness of the group. Glad I was able to enjoy them live. "
