Reviews of Bands & Ensembles

3 Amigos
"A night full of fun and dancing. Music was great! Brilliant interactions with the crowd and catered to all. 100% recommend!!"
23rd January 2025
Simaran - Corporate Event
Upgrad3
"It was so nice to have the solo sax and then up the tempo for the evening with the DJ and bongos! It was exactly what we had hoped for! You were a great presence on the day and so helpful and professional during the build up to the wedding as well. We will be recommending you to everyone!"

Imogen & Thomas - Wedding
Tim Thomas
"Tim is an absolute gem ! 👏 he has played at our venue several times and always hits the right note 🎵 when it comes to reading his audience . Our staff and customers love him he is attentive, polite and always gracious. When he plays the customer always want several more encores x "

Lawrence keogh - The Foundry Bar & Kitchen
Overdrive
"Absolutely amazing, I don’t know what else to say other than book overdrive for your wedding. They were absolutely incredible, we booked them really last minute but they were so quick and easy to work with, they are so talented and without a doubt were the best part about our wedding. Every single guest couldn’t believe how great they were, I will book them for any event I can in future!"
21st February 2025
Charlotte Hoare - Wedding
The New Rules
"If you love the stripped-back, chilled-out style of a Live Lounge, this trio is right up your street. With amazing vocals, top-notch musicianship, and the ability for turning hit songs into something fresh and unique, they brought a relaxed yet energetic vibe to our big day. Their setlist is full of well-known tunes, but each one has a cool acoustic twist. Whether it’s a slowed-down version of a dance track or a soulful take on a pop classic, they make every song feel new. If you’re after live music that’s both familiar and refreshingly different, this trio is a winner. Laid-back, feel-good vibes all the way."
1st March 2025
Carrie Higgs - Wedding
Niko Band
"It was an amazing band for our wedding! We really made a good choice! They played modern hits and good old songs too 👍 Thank you for the best dance-floor atmosphere ever!"

Frequently asked questions

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. It’s sometimes not possible for acts that use a lot of electronic equipment to perform anywhere where it might rain.If the act is happy to perform outdoors you should plan to have electrical outlets close to the performance area and provide a flat surface as well as a cover in case of rain.
Each event is different but the typical performance time for bands & ensembles is 2 x 45 minutes sets within a 2 hours period. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.
Booking bands & ensembles as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.
Most bands & ensembles are self-contained and provide their own sound equipment which is suitable for typical situations. If your event is to be held in a large venue, or you have more than 300 guests, we recommend that additional sound equipment should be used. Always ask your act about their sound system requirements. Some bands & ensembles have lighting systems, but most usually will charge extra for this or recommend a third party supplier for you to use.
Frequently asked questions about Bands & Ensembles, how to register and how results are ordered are in the help & FAQs.
