About Melissa Whitehead & Andy Watt

We currently offer background music at weddings in Tyne & Wear, Northumberland and County Durham and are available for drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts and evening functions.

We are an experienced fiddle and guitar duo who have performed throughout the UK and have played at venues such as Jesmond Dene House, Wynyard Hall and Newton Hall.

If you'd like more information then please get in touch with dates and venues so we can confirm availability.

We offer two repertoire packages - or you can choose a mixture of both!

As graduates of the Newcastle University folk degree we specialise in the traditional music of Scotland, Ireland and England. Our folk set includes a mixture of upbeat jigs and reels through to melodic slow airs and waltzes.

When not performing at weddings we both work as instrumental teachers and have developed quite a knowledge of the latest pop hits loved by our students! Our list of pop repertoire is constantly changing over time as new songs are released but we currently include songs by Ed Sheeran, John Legend, Christina Perri and the Beatles.

Everyone has their own favourite songs so if you let us know in advance then we are happy to include a couple of requests.
