Ataea is an ensemble of professional musicians that offers something different and refreshing. An act capable of providing the perfect balance of music and song for any occasion.

Their repertoire is limitless, ranging from Scottish country dance music to popular music from all eras. Flexible and adaptable, they are suitable for all types of venues and events.

Ataea eliminates the age-old question of "What kind of band do we want for our wedding, anniversary, or birthday?" They can play anything: ceilidh, pop, easy listening, heavy metal ...you name it - they play it! This means, of course, that you can have whatever music you want for your function. Why have one type of band when you can have them all in one?

Their music unfolds with your event, creating a unique atmosphere that you'll always remember.

A totally live, six-piece band, Ataea comprises of keyboards/vocals, bass guitar, vocals, violin, guitar, and drums/percussion/vocals.

Ataea - Repertoire

Help! How do I play these music files?

It's easy! Just double-click on the link and Windows Media Player (or whatever music player you have installed on your PC) should run and start playing the music file within a few seconds. Make sure you have your speakers plugged in and switched on.

If you have a Broadband internet connection (which is very fast), then the music files should play very smoothly straight away.

However, if you have a standard "Dialup" connection (your modem dials up to allow you to make the connection to the internet) then you will find the music file stops and starts all the time. This is because your PC music player is trying to stream or play the music as it downloads to your hard drive but your internet connection isn't fast enough to play the music smoothly.

If that is what is happening to you, then all you have to do is let the music stagger through once (it is downloading as this is happening) and then it will play at full speed after that. You can then listen to the the music file as many times as you want.

Alternatively, you can download the mp3 first and play it from your Hard Drive. To do this, just right-click on the mp3 link and select "Save target as" from the drop-down menu.

You can then save the mp3 file to your Desktop or any other folder of your choice.

When the mp3 file is completely downloaded, double-click on it and it will play immediately on Windows Media player or whatever music player you have installed.

We hope that has helped you. If not, just give us a ring on 0141 577 6604 and we'll talk you through it.

We're here to help you in any way we can.
