His performance was fantastic, as was his voice and how he engaged with our guests if you’re considering booking Matt, go for it you will not be disappointed! An incredibly talented artist." Based in Leeds, England (179 miles from Glasgow) 19th August 2026 Adam Lofthouse - Wedding Photo of Peter Bull Peter Bull "We are so glad that we booked Peter to perform at our wedding drinks reception. He played music from a range of eras, and it was ideal for our festive winter wedding in a Medieval venue. We knew he’d be perfect as soon as we listened to some of his sample tracks online, and in person he was even better. Peter provided a great atmosphere, he was friendly and got on well with the guests. Peter phoned a couple of weeks before the event to discuss our preferences for musical eras and instruments. We asked for a range of things (including a few Christmas carols), with slightly more hurdy gurdy, as it’s our favourite period instrument. Our guests loved Peter’s performance, as did we, and we 100% recommend him for events. We’ve had lots of comments afterwards from people saying how great he was. Thank you, Peter, for helping to make our day so memorable and festive" Based in Leeds, England (179 miles from Glasgow) Cathy Charlton Wedding at Askham Hall, Cumbria - Wedding Photo of Graham Anthony Cooper Graham Anthony Cooper "Ross wrote: We booked Graham for our NYE party and really couldnt have asked for a better night. The perfect mix of songs, a full dancefloor all night and a really interactive performance. Graham is super friendly and professional, nothing was too much for him on the night. Our guests had nothing but good things to say about him and we will be booking him for future parties and special events." Based in Manchester, England (183 miles from Glasgow) Ross - The Dalesbridge Campsite and Cabins. NYE party
