Vegas

  • from £850 in South West Help

Devon based 4-piece band Vegas’ energetic front man leads his band through all the classics - from the latest Oasis tracks to vintage Beatles and Stones hits. Available to hire for weddings, parties and corporate functions.

Special Offer! 15% off all bookings in November 2010.


Devon-based four-piece Vegas like to put their own stamp on every cover they play in their constantly expanding set, from the Stones through to the Fratellis with diversions to take in everything from Elvis to Otis Redding  via Bowie - plus any first dance or special request you might like to add. They create a vibrant and edgy show with lots of audience interaction (and even participation), which they enjoy as much as their crowd.

The band have all been playing since their school days, and guitarist Kane is now a successful private guitar tutor. They have played on the Beatles’ stage at the world-famous Cavern Club in Liverpool over a dozen times, and performed at charity events around the West Country. They’ve played every type of event, from local bars to huge private parties and always go down a storm at weddings.

What people say

  • The band were sensational. The music they played was first class, the dancefloor was jam packed with all ages. Their singer was amazing, and Function Central was very helpful throughout.

    Greg C., Wedding, Devon, June 2009

  • Absolute quality from start to finish. If you are looking for a wedding band this lot are the complete package. Quality covers from at least 5 decades performed with real passion and enjoyment. We can't thank them enough for the three sets they performed, and we're sure they will have swelled their fan base considerably. We will definitely be seeing these guys perform again and again as they formed an essential part of our special day.

    Paul, Wedding, Devon September 08

  • This is a top top band. Despite horrendous weather at our open air event these guys soldiered on and gave a truly fantastic performance. They entertained everyone from 16 to 60 with a mixture of old classics to songs of today, each band member are brilliant musicians & performers and totally professional. Anyone looking to book a great band will not be disappointed with Vegas I guarantee, so much so I have already booked them again for our event next year.

    Trevor, Public event, Devon, June 08

  • We went along to a packed Thursday night. The band were very entertaining with a great set of old and new covers, something for everyone. Good sound. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves as did the band members!

    Steve, Somerset, February 2008

  • They have hired a number of bands here, but normally way too loud and not that brilliant. Vegas however were really good. It's obvious they enjoy the music and the whole entertaining experience as it was a really enjoyable show with plenty of interaction with us. It felt as though they wanted to make us have a good time just like they were. The set they played was so varied and such a brill mix of oldies and new stuff, and all performed so well, and a good sound - not too loud.

    John, Plymouth, February 2008

  • What a venue... and what a great band... A match made in Liverpool, Vegas rocked and the cavern rocked with them, an early afternoon slot was never going to be easy for the lads from Devon to fill, but they pulled it off with ease. Would I go to see them again..? Definitely... and judging by the expressions of everyone else in the Cavern, so would they. Well Done Vegas... :)

    The Cavern, Liverpool, January 2008

  • They really rocked the place. Superb entertainment. Never had such a response from our members. Very professional, certainly know how to play the punters. We don't have rock bands very often but they have led the way.

    Derek B. , Alston, Devon, January 2008

  • Saw an absolutely fantastic afternoon set by this outstanding band. From the start it was full of energy, mixing classic rock songs by the likes of The Jam with some great new sounds by bands such as The Fratellis. They played to a packed out Cavern and we all enjoyed the show put on... the guys know how to get the audience going! Music quality was excellent - one of the tightest bands I've been to see. If you're thinking about going to see them, don't hesitate.
