Ultraviolet | Scottish Wedding & Events Band

Overview

Ultra-special, ultra-fun, and live in kilts

We are Ultraviolet, a four-piece Scottish wedding and events band on vocals, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass and drums, and we're dedicated to making your party ultra-special and ultra-fun.

For more than ten years, we've played in several of Scotland's top bands at some of the finest venues in the country, from castles to community halls and mansions to marquees. We've brought all that experience together under one roof to give you real expertise and peace of mind in a fresh and exciting package.

Have a look at our set list and you'll see we cover a really wide range of great tunes, all tried and tested, from The Proclaimers, Runrig and Skerryvore to Oasis, Coldplay, Lewis Capaldi and Sam Fender. We're always adding new songs, so if you don't see your favourite, just ask.

Fancy a ceilidh? No problem. We'll even teach you and your guests the steps if you're a bit rusty or have never stripped the willow before.

Our standard stage wear is our kilts. We're very proud of them, they give off a certain Scottish swagger, and they help keep our instruments cool.
