STAMA : Lead Guitar
Born in 1966 of Greek origin, Stama has his first experience with music at the age of 12 when he receives his first guitar. He is an autodidact and it’s only some years later that he studied classical guitar. Stama plays in rock bands, blues, variety, and studio sessions. In 1993 he played in Adamo’s band on his French tour.
He came into the country scene playing with Mr Buffalo C.Wayne, a good friend of Mary Ann. In the beginning of 2006, Mary Ann asked if he would like to join the Scot Country Band and Stama accepted.
It’s here he intends to stay, no question of letting anyone else take his place..
GUY : Keyboards
A very talented pianist Guy has played with numerous artists like Demis Roussos. He loves playing ragtime, jazz, variety, pop, blues, and of course country. Guy also plays with Buffalo C Wayne. Mr Piano Man also gives lessons to many young students sharing his passion for music. Guy has accompanied Mary Ann at numerous concerts so it was no surprise when asked if he would like to join the band, his reply was “I’ve already one foot in the door, yes of course”.
Greatly appreciated by all the group for great keyboard playing and his sense of humour

Born and brought up in Scotland Mary-Ann's first experience with music was in the local church. On Sunday she would go and sing her favourite Hymns. On special occasions she would be asked to sing solo, at Easter or Christmas.
In school she spent more time following up on the hit parade than in her studies, memorising the words to all her favourite songs. She knew at the age of 12 that she wanted to be a singer. At the age of 18 Mary-Ann decided she wanted to travel and learn other languages and decides to go and visit Belgium for a short time to learn French and Dutch.
Mary Ann started singing in a band at the age of 19 mainly backing vocals, the music was very varied, as Mary Anne remembers " it was the best way to learn how to sing, you had to sing Pop,Jazz,Rock,Country, you where a juckbox". After a year of backing vocals Mary Ann moved on to share the lead vocals.
After a few year singing Mary Ann takes a break to bring up her two girls, and after an absence of 12 years from the music scene Mary Ann meets up with musicians who are playing in country bands, they asked Mary Ann to be the lead singer. She's got the music virus and is only too happy to be back on stage. Mary Ann meets Mr Buffalo C.Wayne. Buffalo likes what he hears and asks Mary Ann to join him on his European tour.
By this time Mary Ann has become a great country fan, listening to Singers such as Lynn Anderson, Patsy Cline, Faith Hill, Patti Loveless, widening her knowledge from classics to country rock, country blues, The Judds, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Bonnie Raitt, playing in the country and western festivals all over Europe.
We are sure you will appreciate her warm sensual voice, and equally warm character.
Music is her passion, she loves entertaining, gets her kicks from seeing people enjoy themselves.
