Professional and versatile 4-8 piece band based in the North West, covering the very best of rock, pop, funk, soul and jazz, suitable for all events. Highly recommended!

Cerone are a talented and super-slick 4-8 piece  covers  band from the  North West  of  England  formed  of  the  highest  quality musicians, who specialize in performing classic tracks from the wide ranging  genres of Rock n Roll, Motown, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Disco and Pop. Formed in 2006 the band have played countless corporate events from weddings, private  parties, conferences, award ceremonies, sporting events and 5 star resorts in England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland  and  overseas.

For smaller venues they are also able to replicate the sound of the full band via sequences triggered in real time alongside the core line-up of guitar, bass, drums and vocals. This innovative approach enables the band to perform all classics past and present with a seamless live performance and a sound to match. For larger venues, there’s nothing like a live horn section and Cerone use only the best!

The band have  invested  in the best  possible  sound equipment  and  use a top of  the  range 2000 watt  Electro  Voice  PA system  with a  matched  pair of subwoofer  speakers  to  provide  a  deep  and  true  sound. The system can easily handle most event types (up to 300 guests).

What people say

  • A good night was had and Cerone are a good party band which everybody enjoyed.

    Ian, Party, Stafford, March 2010

  • Cerone was recommended to our firm by some colleges that had booked them previously for a summer ball. They were outstanding and didn’t disappoint at all, very professional, Chloe’s awesome soulful voice and top tunes...we could have danced till dawn, and will do next year. Not only were they impressive, but the DJ they supplied worked fantastically alongside them. Highly recommend.

  • Cerone was fantastic at our wedding - I can't thank you all enough. We had a lot of musicians amongst our guests and even before you'd finished your first song people were telling me how impressed they were. The quality of music, sound and lighting, was superb throughout. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Cerone.

    Mark, Wedding, Liverpool, May 2009

  • The band’s performance was a great end to a perfect day. The dance floor was always full and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the music. Cerone played as a 4 piece but with the use of their sequences they played every classic song just like the original. Please accept our kindest thanks for a most brilliant way to help celebrate our special day.

    Lucy, Wedding, Cheshire, January 2009

  • I would like to express my opinion of the band we booked for our Officers' Mess Christmas Ball last night.

Please pass on my thanks and recommendation for this band; I would without any hesitation recommend them.
