About / Biography

The Rockabeats formed in 2015 and are a Derbyshire-based group of musicians with decades of experience between their five members. The band has played a wide range of parties, weddings and events and is able to offer a complete range of set up options, including acoustic duos, trios, four and five-piece full band arrangements to suit your requirements and budget. We also take requests for solo acoustic bookings.

Covering a wide range of songs from the 1950s all the way through to modern day, with genres ranging from classic rock to pop, country to indie, there's nothing that is off the table for the band!

We have a huge repertoire of tried and tested hits that will be sure to get everyone up on the dancefloor. We can work with you to request up to three of your favourite tracks too, so we really can work with you to tailor your perfect setlist. For weddings, we're also happy to work with you on your first dance song - just get in touch and we'll see how we can help.

Please get in touch for further information and let us help you to make your event extra special!

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

If booking a full four / five-piece band, please ensure there's enough space. Ample power sockets required, especially if booking four / five-piece band set up.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, we can do all of this but please liaise with us in advance so that we know exactly what to bring and any additional lighting etc you may require.


What information do you require about a venue?

Directions for the venue, including parking and loading bays, would be greatly appreciated, as well as set up times, start and end times, volume limitations and any documentation needed from us for compliance with the venues requirements.


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

Yes we can, but please discuss this with us prior to the event so we can ensure this is either reflected in the price, set up times, and so we can ensure we have any relevant adapters needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

We've played so many it's hard to pick! From weddings to stag dos, Christmas gigs to acoustic duos, it's always something a bit different!


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

This is near impossible to answer! We play covers and have songs in our repertoire from the 1950s onwards, so anything from Elvis to Harry Styles, The Beatles to The Killers - we're very eclectic in our joint tastes!


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

Between us, we have decades of experience playing in bands - with several band members also music teachers by trade! We all got together through a mutual desire to play gigs and have fun as friends in 2015 and have been gigging ever since.


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

Weddings are always good fun as everyone is happy and we get to be a part of those special celebrations. Seeing everyone having a great time, dancing, and singing is really awesome.
