The Scotsman & The Stovies

Traditional Scottish classics sit at one end of the list and modern covers at the other, with Celtic and Australian songs in between. The Scotsman & The Stovies can be booked as two, three or four players, depending on the event, and packages can combine the music with ceilidh dancing and event planning. MC is among the listed categories alongside wedding band, so one booking can handle the formalities as well as the dancing. They can bring professional sound for any size of event. If the venue supplies it, they need at least two 1000 W speakers, a foldback and a 12-channel mixer. Their paperwork covers public liability, working with children checks and an alcohol service permit. They're based in Launceston, travel nationwide, and their debut album is Distant Shores.
