Rear View Wedding Band

Western Terrace, Edinburgh EH12 5QF, United Kingdom
What We Offer:

We are a 6 piece wedding band based in Scotland.   We have both male and female lead vocalists, a powerful rhythm section and live fiddle player for the ceilidh. Unlike most wedding bands, we take a far more rock n roll attitude towards what we do.  And this passion and energy shines through in our powerful performances that leaves crowds dazzled. We can’t tell you how many times we have been told we are unlike any other band on the scene. The Rear View Band was set up in response to the need to be better, more exciting and more professional than what was on offer. The traditional wedding band was simply boring, tired and over exposed!  We wanted to feel the energy and excitement of seeing your favourite band right in front of you

The Rear View Band were incredible at our recent wedding, they absolutely made our day. Not only did they sound great but they were amazing in the lead up especially with all the uncertainty around Covid. There were so friendly and responsive when emailing. Thank you so much guys
We cannot say thank you enough for all you’ve done for our wedding. We understand that we put you through a lot with our First Dance song and with our special request of Bohemian Rhapsody – which by the way you totally rocked!
Rear View Wedding Band we’re an outstanding contribution to our wedding. Great musicians with great presence which everyone thoroughly enjoyed. Cannot recommend enough.

We had a brilliant evening watching the Firrenes play at the Voodoo rooms in Edinburgh. Really enjoyed all the songs, the band were tight and sounded great. Would definitely recommend.
I met the band listening to the songs here in Brazil, Jules Reed voice is amazing, the timbre of his voice is perfect. A hug to everyone in the band, I hope one day I will be able to hear the songs live, they won a fan here in Brazil🇧🇷🎸🎵🎶

Door Too Wide is a brilliant album with some really catchy songs, and depth too in the lyrics and themes. The title track is great, “Everything Solid Melts into Air” also is upbeat with quirky, emotive references to life in East Germany and the fall of the wall.

Norman and the band played at our recent wedding at Mansfield Traquair – they were amazing. They made the dances clear to understand, they were so patient with all the drunken guests and they got the party started from the moment they began. A decent amount of our guests had never been to a Scottish wedding before and they were blown away by the ceilidh. I can’t thank them enough for the amazing job they all did
Norman and his fellow musicians were absolutely fabulous at our wedding this past June. My family is from the United States, and so had never encountered a ceilidh before. Needless to say, they absolutely loved every second of it,
The Ceilidh Experience played at our wedding at the end of 2013 and they were outstanding!! Simply put they are top-class musicians with great energy and stage presence.
