Strathaven Hotel, 08-Apr-23

Sahara arrived on time and got set up seamlessly. They communicated well before the wedding and were willing to learn out first dance song, and played it brilliantly. Our guests were very impressed with the quality of the band and the range of songs that were played. Very happy with the quality of the band and would recommend!

Sahara were literally fantastic!!! Everyone at our wedding said about how good they sounded. They sounded tight, full and had a great repertoire of songs. Every member of the band was such high quality and it massively contributed to the enjoyment of the evening. Sahara also massively helped me out as they allowed me to use their system to sing a song but also were willing to learn a song that we could play together. My wife absolutely loved it and so did I! It was a moment I’ll remember for the rest of my life. They also learnt our first dance song which they smashed too! Couldn’t recommend Sahara more! Thanks so much!

Mansfield Traquair, 22-Jun-19

Good comms throughout the process, kept us informed throughout, and provided more detailed information when requested. Helped to answer any questions, reassured us, and were very accommodating for the song choices, learning, and any requests. On the day they turned up prompt, went down very well, helped during the break with providing some equipment, and helped really push the night along. Definitely recommend them for others.

Bothwell Bridge Hotel, 27-Apr-19

Sahara were wonderful! They discussed out setlist and requirements in detail and listened to our needs and were willing to learn both songs we requested that were not part of their setlist. On the night their set up was so quick and they sounded amazing! I really couldn't recommend them enough to anyone who was looking for a band!

Dunblane Hydro, 15-Sep-18

Sahara were excellent. They were prompt to respond when I contacted them before the wedding with questions or requests. They learned and played our first dance song, and played the final song of the evening as we had requested and both were brilliant. I found them to be very professional and approachable, and very good at engaging with the guests to keep the dance floor busy all night. I would definitely recommend Sahara and have only positive things to say about them.

The Cow Shed , 19-May-18

Sahara were excellent, completely exceeded our expectations. Our guests were up dancing all night so a real testament to how good they were. I would highly recommenced them as a wedding band who nail the ceilidh tunes and have everyone up dancing for their varied covers set.

Jennifer Adam, Crail

Principal (Form. George) Hotel, 18-May-18

Sahara were ready and set up long in advance of the times we gave them. They were professional, polite and most importantly, their music was excellent. I don’t remember a charity event before where we have had people up and dancing from the very first song until the last. They did a great job of reading the room and playing the music that got people excited. We would have absolutely no hesitation in booking them again or recommending them to anyone else.

Royal Scots Club, 05-May-18

From our first hearing Sahara at the wedding band showcase at the Voodoo Rooms we knew they were the perfect band for our wedding! We weren’t wrong! The dance floor was full from the very start of the night and they were great at judging the floor, there was music to suit everyone’s taste - from my 3 year old Goddaughter right up to my 73 year old mum..!! We had a few ceilidh dances at the start of the night which were played & called perfectly! All of our guests were commenting how great they were on the night and asking us where we found the band! We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!! Thanks Sahara..!!!! ??????????

Sahara were amazing! From my 1st email with Ross I felt 100% comfortable and I felt Ross was very quick to reply to any queries I had. The band on the night were fantastic and we still have people asking me and my partner who they were. I am so glad we found them to play because they made the night time receptions perfect. The dance floor was packed from the 1st to last song. Thank you Sahara!!!

We had never heard Sahara live before but we liked what we heard on the demo tracks. When they played the first song i was delighted we had picked them as they were amazing. All our guests throughout the night kept asking what was the name of our band. Everyone loved them including us (bride&groom) we would definately recommend the band and book them in the future for another function. Very talented musicans.
