The Wullie Fraser Band are the bees knees. Top class musicians that can move a ceilidh along at a good lick yet still be sensitive to the dance floor abilities of the crowd. Our Burns' Night in Zagreb was held in the 5 star grandeur of the old Orient Express hotel now called The Esplanade. In attendance were The Honorary Patron of the Caledonia Club, The British Ambassador and his guest The President of Croatia. The Ambassador noted that it was very unusual for a such a high ranking dignitary to stay so late in the evening! We therefore concluded that the President of Croatia is also a fan of the band. Many thanks again Wullie. See you in 2011.

Hi Wullie. Lots of people have said how good you guys were and I certainly agree!

Hello! Pete and I want to thank you so much for playing at our wedding! You guys are awesome and everyone enjoyed your music!  All the Canadians from my side said it was the best wedding dance they had been to and had a great time, along with everyone else!

Dear Wullie

My lack of communication is no reflection of your band's performance. You are an outstanding band and I have had so many folk remark on it as one of the most memorable parts of our congress. I cannot thank you all enough for the wonderful evening you gave us.

Please let your other members know that it really was a great performance and I thank you all on behalf of my IPEG colleagues and myself.

Dr. Gordon Mackinlay, following the IPEG annual congress ceilidh, Prague, Czech Republic, May 2011

We booked the Wullie Fraser Ceilidh Band for our annual Sports Awards Ball attended by 350 guests. The band were absolutely fantastic and were well received by the guests. They were very flexible and were able to meet all our requirements on the evening. We will be looking to book them in for next year and I'd recommend anyone else to do so.

Jamie McDonald, President of Stirling University Sports Union, following their Annual Ball, Inchyra Grange Hotel, April 2011

We had just two members of the band to play for my husband's birthday - they were brilliant and gave a great sound. Willie is great at calling the dances and loads of people said the band was fantastic. They were so flexible and even took requests. Thanks guys!

just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks again for Friday night. The Ceilidh was fantastic and our guests commented on how well you played and how much they enjoyed themselves.
 
You helped make our wedding a day one to remember and we hope to see you again in the future. Who knows! maybe at the anniversary party next year...
 
Thanks again and all the very best for the future.
 
Kind regards

Willie, I just wanted to say thanks for the gig last Friday. Folk kept saying how good you were, so I was really please I'd booked you! George

(Received 26/11/10: Willie, Clan Moffat has a newsletter twice a year and some letters in the last one praised you at our 'do' in August - "that great band","the band was excellent". Just thought you would like to know! George)

George Moffat, following the Clan Moffat Gathering, Moffat, August 2010

I have been meaning to get in touch to thank you guys for the Ceilidh, it was absolutly fantastic! I know
it was a bit strange doing the Orcadian strip the willow first but I felt it went down well and we got some
impressive pictures from it!

Kenneth Stone, following his wedding ceilidh, Inverness, August 2010

Just a quick note to say thanks so much for coming over to our wedding the other week. I've heard all positives about the band, so don't be surprised if you get more requests to venture west more often in the future...... You were all great and made a fantastic evening - we really appreciate it.

John Ferguson, following his wedding ceilidh, Barrhead, June 2010

Just celebrated my 50th birthday with a ceilidh, music provided by Wullie's 2-piece. Brilliant night for me, highlights being the Riverside Jig, the Swedish Masquerade and of course the Orcadian Strip the Willow. Wullie was great at getting everyone involved right from the start, going through the dances clearly so that many who hadn't even been to a ceilidh before could jig the jigs. One wee 7 year old told me it was 'the best party ever', an American at their first ceilidh said it was 'totally amazing' and the sight of an age range of 5 to 75 all up dancing at the same time is a great testament to how Wullie can get a group of people to have a whale of a time. Book them now!

Bill Stobie, following his 50th birthday party, Edinburgh, May 2010

Hey guys,
I had to message you because all i have heard from the girls this weekend is how good the boarders' ceilidh was!- In fact, they said it was the best they have ever been to as the dances were so much fun and they were able to learn any new dances as the 'speaker' taught them well.

I have to say, before the ceilidh, many of them did not want to go as they said it would be boring - after the ceilidh, we couldn't shut them up about the greatness of the evening.
Thank you once again for making the night so fun for them. 

Joanne Dudgeon, following St George's School boarding ceilidh, Edinburgh, April 2010

The Wullie Fraser Ceilidh Band..............They kept our wedding guests happy, mixing and dancing until the wee small hours!  Thank you guys for many hours of amazing ceilidh music.  There were three of you but your sound filled the whole of the dance floor and beyond!  I know people appreciated your pace and guidance through the dances.  We had so many positive and complimentary comments from friends and family........ even the older generation, so in our eyes you made history!  We will recommend you to anyone needing a unique ceilidh band but really your music speaks far more than our words ever could!  You added something special to a fantastic evening.
Moran Taing!

John and Shona McKay, following their wedding ceilidh, Inverness, April 2010

We hope to see you next year.

We had a great night and the band really got everyone up dancing and set everyone up.  All the guests at the wedding let us know how it set the mood for the evening and made sure a great time was had by all.  I would definitely recommend the Wullie Fraser Band to anyone that was looking for a top quality ceilidh.

Paul Liddell, following his wedding ceilidh, Glasgow, February 2010

The ceilidh at our wedding was brilliant.   Everyone, from the Highland pros to the Southern newbies, loved the band.  They were really professional and had great craic.  Wullie taught us all a couple of new dances as well - thanks very much guys!

John and Kim MacDonald, following their wedding ceilidh, Edinburgh, February 2010

You are a really great band with a lot of energy and life.  You  helped to make our wedding so special.  Thank you so much. 

Rev. Roger Simpson, following his daughters wedding, York, July 2009

The Band's Celidh, was the highlight of the evening's entertainment at the wedding of my daughter and son-in-law. It was a great introduction to Scottish country dancing for the Dutch guests, who thanks to the clear instructions were all able to take part to the full.

Jonathan Sheldrick, following his daughters wedding, Glasgow, July 2008

Fantastic Playing. Thanks for helping make the evening so enjoyable

Murdo Fraser MSP, Deputy Leader, Scottish Conservative Party

I would like to say how professional your band was as well as enthustiac and lively. You talked through the dances clearly and kept everyone jigging into the wee small hours of the new year. Perfect for our Hogmanay celebrations. We would love to have you back this year!
