Magnum

  • from £615 in South West Help

3-piece wedding & function band from Devon playing dancefloor-filling pop/rock material from 60s to present. Great value and a good time guaranteed!

Lively, funky & professional, Magnum make each track their own and tailor them for maximum dancefloor effect. Think Bruce Hornsby meets James Brown meets Stevie Wonder - then imagine them jamming out some classic tunes and have a blast doing it!

Highly experienced players, a great setlist and a performance which will set any event off with a bang. Based in the South West (and not to be confused with their Birmingham based namesakes), the band are led by outstanding piano/vocalist Dave which allows them to perform a wide range of piano-led pop/rock material from Elton John to Stevie Wonder that would be no-go territory for guitar-driven bands. Dave is supported by live bass and drums, and the sound filled out further with subtle use of high quality backing tracks. If you're looking for a band for your function, party, wedding, bash, summer ball or corporate function then look no further!

What people say Help

  • You played at my son and his wife's wedding last Sat (5th Sept). Just to say very many thanks to you all, a brilliant band most definitely contributed to the enormous success of the evening party, we all had such a great evening, never seen a dance floor so full all night long, fabulous atmosphere....

    Mandy, Wedding, Devon, September 2010
  • Thanks to you and the rest of the band for helping to make the joint 60th birthday party a real hit. We really appreciated your flexibility around start times & the fact that you were able to tailor your set to appeal to a slightly 'older' party-goer! The layout of the venue wasn't ideal for a band to play, but once we got people onto their feet you had them on the dancefloor all night - much appreciated.

    James, 60th Birthday
  • Magnum played at our wedding in September and everyone, young and old was on the dancefloor loving it for the entire set. A day we will obviously always remember, and Dave and his band made the night go off with a huge bang! Last minute changes didn't phase them a bit, a brilliant performance from a really talented, friendly group of guys. Can't recommend them highly enough!

    James, Wedding, Dorset, September

  • I have had so many people who were at HMS Trenchants Junior Rates Ball come up to me the next day and say that the Band were one of the best bands they have heard... ...The night wouldn't have been a success without them. Score out of ten 11!!!!
