Ventura

Ventura wedding and events band have been filling dance-floors up and down Scotland for almost ten years.

Ventura are a highly experienced and popular band who love performing. Equally at home playing intimate smaller events, big weddings and functions, they take great pride in providing the best soundtrack to the day – all with a smile on their faces and a positive attitude!   

As professional musicians, Ventura use top of the range instruments and equipment, and have invested in high-quality PA and lighting so they always sound and look great!   

With both female and male lead vocals, they can cover almost any song. Their wide range of repertoire in different genres and styles guarantees a busy dancefloor–they can play something for everyone! A rock and pop covers band at their core, they can also play up to 45 minutes of fully called ceilidh. They tell the story of a Norwegian & Chinese couple getting married in a Perthshire castle where not a single guest had ever experienced ceilidh dancing - Bryden (who was previously drummer for a well-known ceilidh band) had them all up dancing like experts after 5 minutes!   

Each member brings a range of experience to the band–Dawn fronted an ABBA tribute band abroad and is the band's IT & network expert! Bryden is a popular music lecturer and manager. Jon and Andrew are both music teachers and in-demand musicians who regularly get asked to perform with other bands in Scotland and much (much) further afield!  

They’ve performed everywhere - from big exhibition spaces to small hotels, marquees in back gardens to gala days to huge crowds, and an impressive list of castles! They’ve played with and entertained loads of celebs over the years—most recently in December ‘25 where they performed with Peter Andre and his dancers at a charity ball!
