Hireaband’s Lisa Cotton told Real Life Weddings that every now and then they hear of a band described as the hottest act in the country: “But quite often they just don’t live up to the hype. However, when we first saw Ernest in action we were blown away by their energy, talent and enthusiasm.” Possibly the coolest band in Scotland, Ernest is made up of the classic rock and roll combination: bass, drums and guitar with frankly astonishing vocals. Their set list contains not only current chart hits by the likes of The Killers and Kaiser Chiefs but also some really well-chosen classics from the sixties and seventies – not to mention a simply stunning rendition of ‘So Lonely’ by The Police in the original key! (Maybe this doesn’t sound like the most apt wedding song, but just listen to demo 4 on their page of www.hireaband.co.uk) If you want to make a real statement at your wedding, this is the band for you. Delightful guys yet outrageously talented, they have the ability to transform your wedding reception into a full blown event, talked about long after your feet have stopped hurting.
