Overview

Scotland's freshest and certainly one of her finest wedding and function bands. The Kilts are distinctively Scottish but with a set of great pop and rock tunes that makes a fantastic night's entertainment inevitable.

 

The Kilts get their name because every member of the band is from the same family; Ally, Andy, David, Andrew and Kristofer MacKilt. No? Fair Enough - they all wear kilts, so it kinda made sense :-)

Frankly we can't believe no one thought of this before. Take five great musicians, top notch equipment, a professional attitude and some of the best songs ever recorded, add a touch of ceilidh and then dress everyone in a kilt - it's so obvious and boy does it work!

Although only together for a couple of years, members of the band have massive experience at the top level and are of session musician standard. They've performed previously in some very well known wedding and function bands but came together because of their shared taste in music, a similar professional attitude and of course a love of showing off their legs in public.

You'll hear songs you love and of course they band also has a strong line in classic ceilidh tunes so you get the look and the sound of Scotland but with pop and rock songs you know and love.

So if you're getting married or having an event in Scotland, talk to us today about this sensational band. They're very busy and getting busier so don't hang around.  You can get an instant quote just by filling in the quick enquiry form so you'll know exactly how affordable a band of this quality can be.

The Kilts are only available to Hireaband clients. You won't find them on any other web site.

The Kilts

We hired the Kilts to perform at the Spring Ball at Prestonfield on 25 March. On the night, and since, I have had nothing but glowing praise from a large number of our guests. The band were so versatile and performed with such fun and energy. Starting off with a few ceilidh numbers got the dancefloor packed from the outset. The diverse set list ensured there was something for everyone witn classic indie anthems spot on for the demographic at the Spring Ball. The event was such a blast and The Kilts were key ingredient in making it such a success.

The Kilts were absolutely incredible at our wedding. They were excellent at communicating amongst the changing covid restrictions (including date changes) and we were so thrilled when the rules changed just in time for our wedding to allow us to dance. They could not have been friendlier, crowd interaction was excellent and their genuine excitement to be playing after the restrictions had changed was so clear. The atmosphere was incredible and we are so thrilled to have had them as part of our day. Thanks again!
