Leed’s first function super-group Superfly are a female-fronted band of four multi-instrumentalists who play soul, disco and modern pop!

Special offer! 10% off all quoted fees for events in January, February, March & November 2011.

The members of Superfly are all accomplished musicians who can morph into a jazz trio or add a two-piece horn section for extra punch, and feature musicians trained at Leeds College of Music and Groove Armada’s original drummer. They have thirty years’ experience of playing parties, pubs, clubs, cruise ships and weddings between them, giving a performance that combines spectacular musicianship, lush harmonies, costume changes and an exciting light show.

Members of the band have worked with stars from Elton John and Alexander O’Neal to Paul Daniels and played at venues from Buckingham Palace and the Royal Albert Hall to Glastonbury, taking in P&O Cruises, a Dubai Golf resort and Butlins on the way. They recently took their show to New York, where they played in front of Puff Daddy and Lil’ Kim.

What people say Help

  • The band were fab - great sound and very versatile. Re the DJ he must have had the easiest gig of his life as Superfly were the work horses of the night. Not his fault, just audience demand!

    Greg, Wedding, York, June 2010
  • Just wanted to say what a great performance Superfly put on at my daughters evening wedding celebrations. What had already been a memorable day was made complete by the band. I have received many compliments about the band and how good it was to hear live music as opposed to the usual 'Wedding Disco'. It was a pleasure to deal them, they were totally professional throughout and would have no hesitation in recommending them. A great band and four lovely people who clearly enjoy their music. Many thanks.

    Graham, Wedding, Doncaster, June 2010
  • My birthday was the second time we have used Superfly for our parties. On both occasions they succeeded in filling the dance floor. They tailor their music to your needs and made both nights special. We booked Superfly through Functional Central who were easy to deal with, they always responded quickly to emails and telephone calls and made sure that our choice of group met our needs. We are planning to use both Function Central and Superfly again.

    Ian, Birthday, East Midlands, April 2010
  • Hi Alistair, just wanted to say a big thank you for organising the band for Saturday at such short notice. I had a great 40th birthday party. Superfly was really good ... we were quite a difficult crowd to get going because lots of us hadn't seen each other for a while & wanted to chat & catch up - there was also a sprinkling of oldies (50+) & very oldies(70+), however, the band got everyone up & dancing with their very varied play list there was something for everyone. The lead vocalist was superb, she had a great voice & very flexible to cover a range of different music. She worked very hard to get everyone involved but being 'little' not everyone could see her! We could have done with a stage! Nobody wanted the band to stop playing at the end and subsequently lots of people have said how good they were.
    Please pass on my thanks to the band. With best wishes.

    Gail F., 40th Birthday Party, Warwickshire, September 2009
  • We booked Superfly for our Wedding. Superfly were absolutely fantastic. We rang the band in advance to discuss our Wedding and our music preferences. The band were very accommodating in allowing us to use our ipod through their PA system, and also offered a selection of their own music to use between sets. The band arrived on time and were very flexible at fitting in with the schedule of the day – even though we were running late. The band played a great selection of music, and had everyone up dancing all night long, the band even got up dancing and joined in with the great atmosphere that they helped to set at our Wedding. The thing that made our Wedding extra special was being given the microphone to do a bit of singing myself, although I didn’t compare to the band! At the end of the night it was the hotel’s license that had to stop the band playing as the crowd were screaming for more. If you want a great band to play at your Wedding/party/event then stop looking and book Superfly.

    Regarding Function Central – again a very positive experience and pleased I was able to find such a good band through yourselves.

    John F., Wedding, Warwickshire, August 2009
  • Thanks for playing at our daughter’s 21st birthday party. It really made our night. The musicians were great, the sound was perfect and the lights all combined to make it a very special event.

    Patrick M., Birthday, Yorkshire, May 2009
  • Brilliant! When can we have you back?

    General Manager, Music venue, Yorkshire, April 2009
  • These guys (and a girl) played at my summer barbecue and went down a storm. All the other pubs in the village were empty because everyone had come to see Superfly!

    John U., Summer party, Yorkshire, March 2009
  • Some of the best musicians in the area have come together to form Yorkshire’s first supergroup.
