About

The Loch Dubh Band is a group of wedding musicians based out of Oban, Argyll. This three-piece ceilidh band is happy to travel to events based across Scotland and into the north of England. With years of performing experience, they know how to combine traditional folk music with party favourites. They'll go the extra mile to get everyone onto the dance floor, helping to make a celebration you'll remember for years to come.

Services Offered

The Loch Dubh Band specialises in ceilidh dances, Scottish and Irish folk songs, as well as country music. They're also happy to play cover songs. A professional ceilidh dance caller can accompany the musicians to help direct the dancing if needed. To further customise your wedding's music, you can opt for their optional disco and DJ package as an add-on. Professional sound and lighting equipment will be provided for a finishing touch.
