About / Biography

We are The True Colours, an internationally-touring duo and 4 piece band that offers day-to-evening live music for weddings and special events, based in the South of England.

Things we love to do:

- Get the party atmosphere started with our acoustic sets in the sunshine.

- Nail the first dance at a wedding (the only time we enjoy watching people cry!)

- Bring the party and fill the dance-floor with our live band and DJ service.

If you think we may be the band for your event, let's talk!

About Us

We started playing as a duo in 2015, evolving to offer a 4-piece band line up and performing all over the UK and internationally. We've played live on BBC Radio, played some amazing festivals, gorgeous weddings, played concerts under the stars in the Mediterranean sea, and we've played parties sailing past the Statue of Liberty. We've worked with brands such as Veuve Cliquot, Jaguar and organisations such as NATO, and we love what we do.

What We Do

Years of performing professionally at events big and small, and as resident musicians around the world means our song list is longer than most live bands!
We've got the fun folky stuff from The Lumineers, Taylor Swift and George Ezra featuring male and female lead vocals perfect for a laidback festival vibe. We've got the absolute party classics from rock'n'roll and Motown eras that will get everyone dancing. We love the 70's and 80's rock and disco tunes from Queen, Elton John and Prince, to get the dance floor full. And we absolutely have the indie, pop and rock bangers from Oasis, Blink 182, Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift delivered with main stage energy.

We also offer a laidback acoustic duo sets of beautiful love songs and jazzier tunes, or just chilled out versions of songs, perfect for ceremonies and drink receptions (check out The True Colours Acoustic Duo profile).

We love making an event special, whether it’s arranging a unique acoustic version of a special song, or making a dream come true for a talented family member who’s always wanted to perform with a real band. From intimate wedding ceremonies, champagne receptions, festival sets, and dance floor-filling electric sets, we focus on top musicianship and creating the perfect atmosphere.

We also take on arranging and recording commissions, and work with our amazing videographer to create wedding 'music videos'.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

We have performed whilst sailing past the Statue of Liberty for a deck party on a luxury cruise ship, such a cool experience!


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

We love lots of artists and try to throw in a huge mix to our set lists. Fleetwood Mac is a big influence for us, and we think Queen's Don't Stop Me Now has to be one of the best songs for a party!


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

We started playing in bands from the age of 14, and studied contemporary music degrees. We've been working professionally ever since, and it's taken us around the world!


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

Anywhere where people want to dance and have a good time! Weddings usually have the best crowds, we love opening the dance floor with a beautiful first dance for the newly weds and then watching as everyone lets loose!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Once we have access to the venue and our performance space and unloaded our equipment, we can get set up and sound checked within 75 mins.

We include up to 2 hours of live music as standard in our bookings, in 2 x 60 minute sets, or 3 x 40 minute sets, extra sets can be added. We can provide DJ playlists through our PA system when we aren't playing. Late finishes (past midnight) and early arrivals (before 5pm) can be added on to the below pricing.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, but we do require cover, a flat level surface and a power supply.


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

We include a special song request for every event that we will learn if not already in our repertoire. We have a large repertoire so we'll ask you to let us know your preferences so we can craft the perfect set list, we can also take unlimited requests for the DJ playlists.
