The Copycats | Wedding and Events Band

Who we are?

The Copycats are a vastly experienced live wedding and function band based in Scotland. We perform an eclectic set of classic dance floor tunes plus the addition of live Ceilidh dances when desired. A bouncing dance floor is mandatory at all times!!

We are able to offer a 5 or 7 piece band. The 7 piece band includes our fabulous horn section for something a little bit special!

Both lineups offer top class musicians and a mix of Female and Male Vocalists meaning we can cover many genres.

You will dance! You will sing along! You will clap your hands!

Ceilidh

Our Ceilidh section is a little bit funky and the dances are fully called. We usually stagger the dances through the first set but can play them all in one set of around 1 hour.
