"We were delighted to have Sonia & Glen perform at our party. The setting up and cleaning away was done calmly without any intrusion, as we were setting up for the party at the same time. They were very flexible with timings , as we over ran on the meal time. The music, vocals and sound production were very good, great for guests to dance to, or just enjoy listening to the entertainment. "

"Hi Anne, Sorry for the slow reply, it has been a busy week. I am glad they enjoyed it, we really enjoyed the music and many of our guests also commented to us how much their melodious playing had completed the ambiance of the evening, getting us off to a lovely start. Please pass on our thanks to the quartet for playing, and thanks to you for organising it all. All the best, Calum"

"I booked Magenta Strings for my daughters wedding, they were absolutely amazing. Thoroughly professional and their repertoire is wonderful. Having a string quartet made the day so perfect, and the guests commented on how beautifully they played. I cannot recommend them highly enough."

"We played before Anne at a wedding in Lancashire earlier this year. We thought she was excellent and would highly recommend her to any of our clients who are also looking for a saxophonist for their wedding."

Very friendly, really lovely people, professional and extremely talented. You made our summer!! Thank you so much."

"Booking on last minute musicians was easy and from the start we had great communication from Sarah Jane, responding to emails quickly and negotiating the cost. On the day Lindsay arrived early to set up and was professional and friendly throughout. She did an amazing job providing music during the reception drinks and made the day that extra bit special. We are really lucky that we managed to have her perform at the wedding. All the guests commented on how great she was and we would definitely recommend her."

"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!"

"OMG….UTTERLY FANTASTIC Primed ed were at our wedding on Saturday. They were great setting up (had to be quiet etc as our dinner overran) and their music was just incredible all evening! All our guests said how great they were, and to be honest, my husband and I were just blown away. So much energy until the very last song. Loved them!"

"Adam helped to create the perfect atmosphere for our January wedding. Adam starting playing from our guests arrival, aisle walk and through our drinks reception. We were so happy with Adam’s performance and had so many compliments from our guests. The kids were very happy when he played ‘Let it go’ for them!"
