"After listening to Tim's music on Spotify and loving his unique style and incredible skill, my wife and I booked Tim to play at our wedding reception at Daisy Bank Manor earlier this year. Tim kicked off by playing one of his own tracks - Magnesium Black - for our first dance, which set things off to a great start! He played an absolutely brilliant set, full of energy all the way through and kept people on the dancefloor all evening right up until we were kicked out! We and our guests had a great time, with Tim playing a perfect mix of classic dance hits, crowd pleasers, and some of his own songs, all with his unique guitar mashing to keep things really interesting! Ahead of the wedding, Tim was very helpful all the way through, with prompt, clear communication, and really took the time to get an idea of what kind of music we wanted. We highly recommend Tim Scott Guitar if you're after a brilliantly energetic and unique party! Thanks Tim Scott Guitar!"
