About / Biography

"Brilliant band. They made the night, everyone loved the music and atmosphere. We had a few comments that it was the best wedding band they had heard. Would defo recommend to anyone." Tara Rem - Wedding booking.

They aren't just your average covers band, with over 15 plus years experience, they've spent a long time performing to packed out shows across the country with dance-floor-filling pop rock anthems.

With a set-list rich in well-known hits and super-tight performances, Four Authors add a sparkle of originality far surpassing that of a typical covers-band, they bring something to the table no other act can; a stadium-level band ready to entertain. They play every track with such passion, intensity and love that you'd think it was their own.

Four Authors will leave you and your guests wanting more as they excite and wow you with hit after hit. They just ask one thing in return, that you and your guests give it everything you have and party like its the last party in the world.

If you book Four Authors you'll definitely have a show to remember, and one that you'll want to see again and again.

Fully Public Liability Insured & all equipment PAT Tested.

Past clients include Silverstone Race Track, Moto GP, Barnsley FC, Sheffield Wednesday FC, UK Military Service plus private weddings/events, corporate companies & private schools.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

We will make most performance spaces work!
3 X Parking Spaces (if possible)
4 X Mains power sockets (does NOT need to be near the performance area)
A changing room is a nice to have but not essential
Access to water is ideal please (especially for the singers of the band).


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, we’re completely self contained. We bring our own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.


What information do you require about a venue?

We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment. Any access restrictions we would need to be aware of prior to the event (ie. stairs or a lift which will extend load in times) We’d also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue as the snare drum alone will max it out.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

We played the Moto GP at Silverstone which was a great experience. 02 in London was also a highlight.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

No one artist just any songs that get the guests in the party mood by moving!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

All of us started gigging in original music bands from our teenage years and the corporate scene just followed on from there!


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

Anywhere where the guests are getting up dancing like weddings/corporate events. The military base shows have been some of our favourites!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Standard performance Time - 2 x 1 hour performances


Are you happy to perform outside?

We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 3 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe us as a high energy group that loves to get the audience on their feet dancing as well as audience participation being an important element of the show. They have described our shows like being at a live gig in a live music venue.
