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 system can easily handle most event types (up to 300 guests). Cerone also have their own self-contained stage lighting system 2 x NJD Spectre’s and 2 x NJD Datamoon’s both with 'sound-to-light' controllers as standard.

What people say Help

  • I just want to pass on how thrilled we were with Cerone last night, they really made our reception ! Thanks so much.

    Laura, Wedding, Manchester, October 2011

  • A massive thank you! Cerone were so friendly and and they took everything in their stride. The set they played was fantastic - with everyone dancing and commenting on what a great band we had chosen!

    Dawn & Tim, Wedding, Cheshire, July 2011

  • Cerone were the perfect wedding band. Right from the word go, we were really impressed with how lengthy and varied their repertoire was, covering all genres and eras that you could wish for. On the night they did not disappoint. Everyone was dancing nearly all night and the clamours for encores did not stop! I'm surprised you managed to get away when you did! As a tip we opted for the 5-piece line up which I think was worth every penny if you can afford a little extra, but either way, a very slick and accomplished outfit. Everyone complimented me on choosing so I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone.

    As for the agency I would just like to say that I found your website easy to use and demo's easy to obtain and the service was straightforward and hassle free which is perfect when you are planning a wedding.

    James, Wedding, Staffordshire, June 2011

  • We booked Cerone for our son's wedding reception and their performance was the perfect end to a perfect day. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the music and people even started to dance during the sound check it was that good! Chloe has an awesome voice backed up by some very talented musicians. As the saying goes, we could have danced all night. We would recommend Cerone without hesitation. Thanks!

    Claire & Mike, Wedding, Manchester, June 2011

  • 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.

    British Gas, Corporate Event, Cheshire, September 2009

  • 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. The band were perfect for our function, their professionalism, enthusiasm and courteous manner complemented the evening's entertainment. Please pass on my thanks and recommendation for this band; I would without any hesitation recommend them.
