Afterglow were such a hit at our wedding reception. Would definitely recommend! Brock & Dylan, Wedding, London

Following a blues & rockabilly residency at The Four Seasons in Dubai, Afterglow's lead singer teamed up with a folk singer-songwriter and percussionist to produce bossa and folk versions of popular songs of soul, funk, Motown, jazz and pop.

The duo has since performed at numerous private events including private birthdays and corporate parties at prestigious venues including The Shard.

Adding a unique folksy, bossa twist to the classic acoustic format, Afterglow are the perfect choice for alternative background music at your event. They're also available as a trio.
