The Edinburgh Tattoo

The group was originally formed in 1958 to serve with the Territorial 7th / 9th (Highlanders) Battalion of The Royal Scots (The Royal Regiment), and they wore a kilt Hunting Stewart.

In 1961, the 7 / 9th Battalion was merged with the 8th Battalion of The Royal Scots to become the 8th / 9th Battalion. In 1967, the 8th / 9th Battalion Royal Scots was part of the Royal Scots and Cameronians Territorials.

This unit was itself dissolved in 1969 and its soldiers were transferred to the 52nd Lowland Volunteers, which had also been mobilized in 1967.

The group finally followed the other elements of the former Royal Scots and Cameronians Territorials, also under the command of the 52nd Lowland Volunteers in 1970, retaining its name as the Royal Scots Territorial Band.

After the formation of the Royal Regiment of Scotland on March 28, 2006, the 52nd Lowland Regiment became the 6th Battalion of the new regiment and the group took the title The Lowland Band from the Royal Regiment of Scotland.

The original Regular Scottish Division Lowland Band was formed under the command of the Corps of Army Music in 1994 and consisted of regular regimental groups.

This group fused from the three Scottish infantry regiments of Lowland at the time, the Royal Scots, the King's Own Scottish Borderers and the Royal Highland Fusiliers.

The group itself merged with the Scottish division's Highland Band in 2006, forming the regular Regimental Band of the Royal Regiment of Scotland.

The current director of music is Captain Phillip Wood, former band chief of the Royal Regiment of Scotland regular band and band chief of the Light Cavalry Band.
