With Heather’s Scottish heritage we have gathered quite a collection of Scottish and Irish tunes, which we love to intermingle with the usual huge variety of music we play at a wedding.

For example, The Royz Band can play a selection of traditional celtic tunes throughout your dinner and some high-spirited tunes for your dance. From  Irish and East Coast jigs and reels to Scottish Gay Gordons, all seamlessly mixed in with the usual dance and party fare, we guarantee even those without a drop of Celtic blood will be joining in the fun.
