Our wedding bands in the North East are generally booked for
after-dinner dancing.
They play chart hits from throughout the decades,
generally covering a blend of pop, rock and soul.
All of the band
line-ups consist of a lead vocalist backed by live musicians, varying
from compact 3-pieces to large-scale 8-piece bands and everything in
between.
Remember to see our act profiles to get a sense of their particular style. Choose a band with synthesisers and keyboards for cheesy 80s classics, or a band with guitars if rock and indie anthems are more your thing.
If you’re looking for soul, funk and Motown – keep an eye out for our bands with brass sections.
All our bands are fully self-contained with their own PA sound system, microphones, backline amplifiers and instruments. This works really well for most marquee or indoor weddings.
Let us know if you're expecting more than 250 guests, so we can check whether the act’s system is large enough.
Most bands will also bring lighting for both the stage and dancefloor.
Check the act's individual profile for more details and optional add-ons to enhance the show!
Most bands will be happy to learn and perform your first dance request – provided they think they can arrange it for their line-up and do it justice!
Check the act’s profile to see what they can offer and if they can’t do it live, they could just play it through their PA system using Spotify or an mp3 player.

A jazz swing band is ideal if you’re looking to give your reception a classy
edge. They are generally smaller-scale and easier to set-up than a party band – a perfect solution if you’re worried about accommodating your
band in a smaller venue.
