Bandeoke Scotland

Overview

Live band karaoke for weddings, parties and corporate events in Scotland

Bandeoke Scotland turn karaoke into a full live show. Instead of a backing track and a lyrics screen, your guests step up to the mic with a real band behind them, playing their song live. An MC keeps the night flowing, coaxes up the nervous singers and jumps in when someone forgets the words – so everyone gets their moment, not just the confident ones.

How Bandeoke works

  • Pick your song – guests choose and request their songs through the custom Bandeoke app.
  • Sing with a live band – the band play every song live, with the MC on hand to keep things moving.
  • Make it a night to remember – packages can include prizes and filmed performances, so the memories (and the evidence) last long after the night ends.

Perfect for

  • Corporate events, Christmas parties and work nights out
  • Weddings and evening receptions
  • Milestone birthdays and private parties

Recent bookings include a corporate event at Ghillie Dhu, a 50th birthday at Carberry Tower, a wedding at Harburn Barn and a company end-of-year party – and the reviews speak for themselves.

Songs everyone knows

The setlist is packed with singalong favourites, from ABBA classics like Dancing Queen, Mamma Mia and Super Trouper to Take On Me, Rolling in the Deep and I Don't Want to Miss a Thing. Have a look at the full set list to start picking yours.

No venue is too big or too small, and all equipment is state of the art, so every performance sounds as good as it feels.

Great entertainment thank you. Made our night great fun. Brilliant group of lads too - plenty of smiles and fun.

Bandeoke Scotland were just amazing! We had such a fabulous night. Andy was brilliant, keeping us right and filling in when we didn't know the words. I would highly recommend.

Andy and the guys were absolutely brilliant, all our guests were raving about the bandeoke!

Simply the best night ever. The hiring experience was easy and the band were absolutely the best! You need to book them!

The band were incredible. Good fun and really kept the evening energised. They read the crowd well.
I would really highly recommend them for any event.
Such a lovely experience from start to finish.

Hireaband were a very easy company to work with. There was strong communication from the outset and staff were approachable and willing to go that extra mile for you.

The band that was hired, Bandeoke Scotland, were absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. They were onsite almost two hours early to set up, they were courteous and just captured the whole mood of the party from the outset. The band were professional, kind and so enthusiastic, I only wish you could bottle the fun atmosphere that they created!
The whole concept of a live band karaoke is brilliant and these guys delivered big time, everyone one at this party commented on the band!
Cannot thank Hireaband and Bandeoke Scotland enough!

FAQs

What is Bandeoke?

Bandeoke is karaoke with a live band. Instead of singing along to a backing track, your guests take the mic with Bandeoke Scotland playing their song live behind them, while an MC keeps the night flowing. It's the ultimate interactive party night for weddings, birthdays and corporate events.

Do our guests need to be good singers?

Not at all – that's half the fun! The MC is on hand to encourage nervous singers, keep everyone on track and jump in if someone forgets the words. As one client put it, Andy was brilliant at "keeping us right and filling in when we didn't know the words".

How do guests choose their songs?

Guests choose and request their songs through the custom Bandeoke app, picking from a setlist of around 260 singalong favourites – from ABBA and Elton John to Oasis, The Proclaimers and Sam Fender. Take a look at the Set List tab to see the full list.

Is Bandeoke a good choice for a wedding?

Absolutely. Bandeoke Scotland have played weddings at venues such as Harburn Barn, and it's a brilliant way to get every generation involved in the evening reception. Many couples love seeing their friends and family take a turn in the spotlight.

Is Bandeoke suitable for corporate events and Christmas parties?

Yes – it's one of the most popular ways to bring a team together. Bandeoke Scotland have played corporate events, company end-of-year parties and work nights out, including at the Ghillie Dhu in Edinburgh. It gets colleagues mixing, laughing and cheering each other on.

Who is in the band?

The default line-up is a four-piece: guitar, bass and drums, plus an MC who also provides backing vocals and helps guests through their songs.

How long do Bandeoke Scotland perform for?

The standard performance time is 8pm to midnight with a 30-minute break, which is the norm for weddings and events in Scotland. During the break the band provide a complimentary DJ playlist so the music never stops. A late finish after midnight is available as an add-on.

Can we add prizes or filmed performances?

Yes. Bandeoke packages can include prizes and filmed performances, so your guests have something to remember their big moment by. Just mention it when you request a quote and we'll tell you what's available for your date.

What equipment do the band provide?

Bandeoke Scotland bring everything needed for the show: a full PA system, stage lighting and a complimentary unmanned DJ service for when they're not performing. All equipment is state of the art and PAT tested, and the band hold public liability insurance.

How long do the band need to set up?

Most bands need around an hour to set up, and longer if access to the room is difficult. Bandeoke Scotland always arrive in good time – one client mentioned they were on site almost two hours early – so everything is ready before your guests are.

What about venues with sound limiters?

Some venues use sound limiters, which can cut the power if the volume goes over a set level. Let us know if your venue has one when you enquire and we'll make sure the band are prepared. Our guide to sound limiters at wedding venues explains more.

What happens if the band can't make it?

Every booking is contracted and confirmed in writing, and we check in with the band right up to the week of your event. In the very unlikely event of a problem, Hireaband has an enormous pool of talented entertainers and a genuine emergency phone line that is always manned.
