A band that instantly makes you feel happy as soon as your hear them. They were absolutely incredible at the reception of our wedding, setting an incredibly joyful tone before the ceremony and bringing the party, bobbing vibes throughout the afternoon. Their set list was incredible and people of all ages couldn’t help but bobbing or shaking and smiling a they played throughout the afternoon. If you want to instantly transform any space into a happy, fun and exciting place to be, for ALL ages, the saltire street band is the way to go. Their communication is brilliant and they all seemed to absolutely love playing together, and that was also a joy to be a part of!

It goes without saying that Rory and I cannot thank you enough for all your incredible hard work, support, joy and love that you have provided us with over the last year. We have absolutely never heard such a talented bunch of musicians and to the tee what we were looking for – you blew our wedding day away.

We've had  family and friends saying it was the best ceremony they've seen with your surprise, people saying 'Crazy in Love' is 'paying rent in their head' brass band style since the wedding (in the best way) and everyone has said you are the best band they've ever seen played...big praise and believe me, it is no easy feat to get that sort of feedback. You smashed it!

To convey it one last time, a huge heartfelt thank you from your biggest fans. We will never forget everything you did for us and hope to see you play again very soon.

Thank you SO much to you and your band. You were beyond incredible! I felt like I was floating down Cockburn Street! And I'm pretty shy, so I think it was the energy from you guys that made it so magical! Kim is still watching all the videos and beaming.

Thank you for being so flexible on the day, for your talent and hard work, and making the wedding so much fun!! Please pass on our gratitude to all the awesome band members!!

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for putting on such a great show. People can't stop raving about you guys and how it added such a fantastic, personal, and unique touch to the wedding. Spot on.

Saltire Street Band are a pleasure to work with and fantastically talented! They play a mix of upbeat, feel-good tunes that our guests love, and bring entertainment and excitement to St James Quarter. We would highly recommend Saltire Street Band to anyone looking for amazing jazz musicians and can't wait to work with the guys again!

The Saltire Street Band were booked as a surprise pop-up at my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding at Cherrytrees in Yetholm in July. Although it was difficult to keep the surprise from not only the Bride and Groom but all the other guests, the band worked with us to make sure that no-one knew anything until they appeared mingling with the guests and started the party.

They then assisted us in parading our guests to the area where our "garden party wedding" was being held. This meant that all the guests immediately understood that the wedding was to have a fun-filled, relaxed vibe with the band playing while people danced, played lawn games or were able to enjoy their picnic while listening to the wonderful music. The band even arranged and rehearsed a song especially for the Bride & Groom by one of their favourite bands, which was a really lovely touch and totally unexpected.

Everyone said that the band certainly helped create the right atmosphere for what was truly a very special day. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for an event and look forward to another occasion when we can book the absolutely AMAZING Saltire Street Band!
