Availability CheckerAbout Wildcard
"Wildcard" are a male 4 piece versatile live band who all share lead vocals and also offer a live Scottish ceilidh option. Their collective background and experience of musical expertise of weddings, corporate functions & parties has made them a very popular choice since exclusively joining "Music For Scotland". Together they have developed live entertainment with a difference, through observation and listening, so that each event is tailored to your individual or collective needs.
So please view them live on the HD video featuring songs by Snow Patrol / Travis / The Killers & Rod Stewart , but please find time to listen to the alternative audio-files for a further selection of material. All the material is as they play it live, no studio overdubs or trickery involved.
What you hear is exactly what you get !!.
Providing a friendly and helpful service, as well as entertainment, has not gone unnoticed. Please check the testimonial page on this site, showing client`s praise and reviews of their previous bookings. Apart from great feedback, they pride themselves on being communicative, punctual and of smart appearance.
They cover a wide spectrum of modern and classic material from all the genres, and apart from providing ceilidh live or by ipod, they can usually cater for your 1st dance by learning it, not busking it, and in addition also provide interval / break music of your choice, or even a D.J if necessary. Your night will also be in lights, with a professional lighting system highlighting them and your guests on the dance floor.
Each show is never too loud but always energetic, including fun audience interaction with the aid of our wandering radio-mics.
These are also available for your use on announcements and speeches etc.
Also, the travelling distance is not an issue, so call first to discuss. And if you find that the HD video and audio aren't enough !!!, please ask a
"Music For Scotland" agent for other available material, or alternatively where you can view the band live at a function or at a private showcase/rehearsal.
Size is not an issue either. They can cater for all aspects of the entertainment market by providing small set-ups for the small & quiet private weddings, birthday parties,etc, or can expand to a full scale corporate show requirement with a large Public address system and extra professional lighting.
Lastly, the guys know that an essential part of being an entertainer is to be able to read the audience. Speak to them. Listen to them.
They invite and involve the audience to be part of the show, and let everyone go home buzzing, having thoroughly enjoyed their night out.

Hi Andy, We really enjoyed the music on Saturday night and you guys made the party go with a swing. Everybody I have spoken to commented on how good the band was and also how much they enjoyed the music. I will pass your good wishes on to Kev and Claire when they return from their honeymoon. If in the future we require the services of a band, I will have no hesitation about getting in touch, Very many thanks again and could you pass this on to Alex, Rod, Kenny and the accordion man. Keep up the good work

Mr & Mrs Sime xx
I have been meaning to get in touch myself for some time to say a huge thank you for your performance at our wedding. As I said before, we decided to book after seeing you play at our friends wedding and we are so pleased that we booked you for our wedding too. You were fantastic and we've had so many lovely comments about what a great band you were. I don't think the dance floor was ever empty! Your services will come highly recommended to all our friends and family if they are looking for a great band. Also, thanks fro providing the disco in the last hour too, at such short notice. On reflection, I think I underestimated how exhausted I would be at that stage of the night!!! But nevertheless it meant the party kept going for longer and everyone really enjoyed themselves! .Thanks again to you all for a fantastic evening. We look forward to seeing you play again soon.
Pauline and Chris
Thank you Wildcard for performing at our daughter's marquee reception on Saturday. You were absolutely fantastic from the first dance to the last. Your choice of music was excellent and enjoyed by all. So many of our guests mentioned to us that they thought you were terrific. Thank you once again.
Andrew and Susan Reid
Thanks again for playing at your wedding, everyone has been talking about how good the band was and asking us who you the band was. the dance floor was never empty and your cover of our first dance was spot on, and i will recommend you to anyone for a party or wedding. The conga at the end was random, who know's how that started but a good laugh none the less.
Ally & Kirsten
We wanted to say thanks so much for being a great wedding band, we had an absolutely fantastic time, and loads of people commented on how good you were.

I just love it, it's my favourite one from the whole day because it really captures the fun we were having. All the best
