We've booked our wedding reception here in Edinburgh, Scotland for Sat. the 14th of February 2009. We are looking to book a classic country band with Steel guitar, to play at our reception. Can anyone help?

Hi

That band mentioned by John - The Sundowns - no longer exists. 3/5ths of the members are now in The Wynntown Marshals, a band which has a steeler, Iain Sloan.

It's a Rootsy, more alt-country type band. There's a myspace page: www.myspace.com/thewynntownmarshals.

I don't know if that's what you're after or if you'd prefer a more traditional Country sound.

Anyway, hope ceremony goes well!
