Newcastle based 5-piece rock and pop cover band with real star quality, performing tried and tested hits from Stevie Wonder to The Foo Fighters. Available to hire for weddings, parties and corporate functions.

With a charismatic frontman equipped with a powerful rock voice and outstanding guitar skills, Hush have been raising the collective roofs of the bars, clubs and wedding venues of their native Newcastle for many years. Recently they expanded to a 5-piece line-up to include a 2nd guitarist, adding extra melodic interest and richness to their sound.

As well as touring Ireland and Europe and playing numerous weddings and university events across the UK, the band have supported Jools Holland's Big Band and Martin Stephenson and the Daintees. They have also played for troops in Kosovo, notably with ex A1 band member Paul Marazzi fronting the band. Three band members saw some commercial success after releasing two singles and an album on Mushroom Records (part of Sony Music).

What people say Help

  • Would just like to thank you for performing at my 5oth Birthday party. I had 180 guests there all of a variety of ages,and as with any occassion was nervous but your band blew everyone of them away! Everyone loved the variety of music you performed there wasn`t a space on the dancefloor it was a brilliant night. Great range of music,great singer, fabulous musicians and a few have said "quite a nice bit of eye candy!"!!! You are a lovely set of lads who obviously enjoy what you do which is to entertain!!! Feedback from the night has been fantastic and I've had lots of people ringing me to ask for your bands name, so hope you get lots of gigs that we can come to, you have now got yourselves a new fan base in our area. Hope to see performing soon but meanwhile thanks again I could not have had a better night and its all down to Hush simply the BEST!

  • Finding a band for my wedding was a challenge because our guests had such varied taste in music. On arrival of the band, I could hear them setting up, it was quite an exciting moment because of the unknown and what to expect. The band was magnificent, the band member I spoke to was friendly and warming. The band played all the indie rock music we like, all our guests complimented the quality of the music and everyone was boogying away all night long! As the bride, I was very pleased with my chosen band and most of all they played the music that rocked our dance floor on our wedding night.

  • We had great service from the agency and knew beforehand about organisation for the night so there was no panic on our wedding day. The band were very tight and impressed a lot of my guests who play on similar entertainment circuits in bands, there was a broad mixture of ages at the wedding and Hush played something for everyone from young to old, I'm delighted to say that I got to dance to the music I like on my wedding day and not any old disco track!
 
Thanks.

  • I am a Warrant Officer within the British Army. I have been asked to organise the ‘Summer Ball’ for this year’s Mess function and as part of that requirement I have been looking for live entertainment to cover a 2 night booking to entertain 500 guests.

    I was advised to check out Hush at a nearby venue. I was instantly impressed with the professionalism, look, and more importantly the vocal and musical, sound of the band. The atmosphere in the venue was fantastic from the outset and the band struck up an immediate rapport with the audience encouraged by healthy banter and interaction between the group and the audience. I have subsequently booked Hush for both functions and would be happy to endorse their recommendation to anyone considering booking them in the future.

  • I just wanted to send a short note to thank you for playing at our daughter’s wedding at Linden Hall on 30 April 2011. The mark of a good Band at an occasion like this, is when people get up and dance – and you certainly managed to get everyone on their feet – at quite an early stage too. Feedback was really positive across the board, and Hannah and Chris (bride and groom) were more than happy with their choice of Band. They were delighted that you were able to play Biffy Clyro’s ‘Machines’ for their first dance, and that you played it so well. Your cooperation in accommodating this request was very much appreciated. We would have no hesitation in recommending you for further weddings, parties or similar functions in the future. Many thanks.
