Be a rock star... for an evening! Instead of singing to karaoke recorded tracks, your guests get to sing with the backing of a full live band. A thrilling experience and sure to be a winner with any audience.
The band members' vast experience and musical backgrounds allows them to perform a wide variety of musical styles from up to date chart hits such as "Poker Face" - Lady Ga Ga, "Mr Brightside" - The Killers and all the way back to hits by The Beatles.
How does it work?
The band provides a song list (see bottom of page) packed with songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and today's biggest hits. People are then free to sign up for whatever song suits them best as in karaoke....but come performance time, the guest singer (or group!) then joins the band on stage where they perform live for the audience.
Just like with Karaoke, song lists are made avaliable, guests fill in a small form with their name and the song they want to sing, and at the end of the evening the best three are given prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place. All lyrics will be provided clearly on a well-lit music stand. The band will also help out if guests get a little lost!
Who is it aimed at?
It's aimed at bars, clubs, corporate events, weddings and private parties.
Bandeoke is perfect for large groups who are up for fun! If you have a few extroverts in the group, they will help to get Bandeoke off to a rocking start, but after that, the excitement and fantasy of performing with your very own band will have most people signing up!!!
What is the end result?
Bandeoke is an adaptable form of entertainment, which fits into many evening or day events such as weddings, parties, clubs or bars.

What people say

Paul, Corporate Event, Kent, June 2010Having only a few day's notice to find a Kareoke band, Function Central worked hard to secure the services of a suitable band for us - The Original Bandeoke. The band are not just excellent magicians, they also interact with the crowd and guests ensuring that everyone feels involved creating the perfect atmosphere for a great night. They were extremely flexible in terms of set times and we would be delighted to work with them and Ali again on future events.

Marie, Wedding, May 2010I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you for your wonderful performance at our wedding on 28th May. You made sure that everyone had a fantastic evening and that there was a great atmosphere. Everyone had so much fun (not least me dancing all night)! So many people commented on how great you guys were and even the staff at the hotel asked what you were called as they were so impressed. Great music and a good atmosphere were so important to us form the moment we started planning so it was so nice to know that you would deliver that.
Also, thanks for letting my Dad get up and sing Johnny B Goode! I know that must be really nerve-racking for you! He loved singing with a real band for the very first time and it seemed to go down very well. We watched it back on the video and he grinned all the way through. I think it made his day! Good luck with everything and if I ever need a band again I know where to come.
