Does the band also do Ceilidhs? (asked by Emma on 28 January 2021)

Response from Tom: Yes we can perform 3 Scottish dances and we will teach the dances as well. Dances are usually Strip the Willow, Gay Gordons and Dashing White Sergeant. This is a free service which we include in the playing time stated.

"We could not be happier with The Scottish Soul Collective: they had everyone up on the dance floor for every single number and were able to play our first dance request perfectly! Everyone who attended commented on how technically brilliant, fun, and enthusiastic the band were. Thank you guys for making it such a fantastic party!"

"What a fantastic evening The Scottish Soul Collective provided for us! From the start they were so easy to work with and played our first dance song to perfection. Such talented singers and musicians and the tunes kept coming all evening. What an incredible selection of songs that got everyone of all ages dancing. We’ve been asked so many times about booking them by our guests. We all had so much fun all evening because they looked like they were having a blast performing. Thanks to Tom and all the band for arguably the best part of our day, after getting married of course!"

"Absolutely amazing wedding band! So helpful and responsive on the lead up to the big day...nothing was a problem. On the day itself Tom managed all the setting up and the music at the ceremony was a perfect kick start to the day! The band at the evening reception were just amazing. The dance floor was never empty and they were so lovely. Excellent wedding band-talented, professional and loads of fun. Thank you!"

"The Scottish Soul Collective, specifically Tom, were amazing to us during what for many has been a difficult time (organising a wedding during the pandemic). We booked the band as an 8 piece a couple of years ago, after seeing them play a few times in Edinburgh at the Grass Market. Covid struck and restrictions were ever-changing. This left us in a position where we felt the best thing to do was to cancel a lot of our vendors including the band. They were very understanding and were so good about it that we wanted to go back to them once things started to settle. When it came to it, we did just that and got back in touch with Tom. Restricted by numbers we could only have 3 band members. We really wanted a jazzy feel to the band so Tom suggested a sax, guitar and vocalist. A strange mix but they made it work, even sending us some demos. Come our wedding day, The Scottish Soul Collective arrived well on time. We were running late but they rolled with it, set up quickly and played an amazing unique version of Kodaline - the one including sax for our first dance. A performance we will never forget. With restrictions they could not play loud music for us to dance to but their selection of music for the background was ace and they interacted with guests well during their breaks. We are hoping to have a proper party in a few years once covid is over and will 100% approach these guys again. Couldn't rate them highly enough."

"It’s hard to put into words how happy we were to find The Scottish Soul Collective. We booked both the jazz duo and the full 9-piece band, and we couldn’t have been happier. From the first enquiry right through to the last song, Tom and the band were professional, timely, and cared so much about our day."

"Look no further, this is the band you need for your wedding! These guys played at our wedding at Winton Castle and blew everyone away. From young to old the dance floor was filled all night. A fantastic experience and one which we will never forget. Professional musicians and so very, very friendly. Quite simply, they are OUTSTANDING!"
