"The band were amazing at our wedding reception. They sounded superb! Our guests loved dancing to their music. Communication in the lead up to the day was great and they were really flexible with what we needed. Thank you again, Soul Searchers!"
Chloe hired Soul Searchers for a Wedding (available in Richmond upon Thames)

"The Icono Band gave us a wedding party beyond our expectations. They were all amazing and the lead singer Emily was particularly fantastic, especially as she’s not part of the band's usual band line-up. They played all the songs we asked for, but we weren’t expecting all the interaction (and sax serenading!) which was a brilliant bonus. Honestly, we were blown away. All our guests were raving about the band the next morning and asking us where we'd found them. We’ll be recommending The Icono Band to everyone we know."
Georgia hired The Icono Band for a Wedding (available in Richmond upon Thames)

"These guys were so incredible from when we first enquired at booking to play at our wedding reception, right through to the night itself. Great communication, they learned our first dance song for us and it was incredible, and they just had such a great knack for getting our crowd going, we were on the dancefloor all night! Can't recommend these guys enough, we wish we could do our wedding party all over again it was so good. "

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of performance should I expect from a function band?
Good question! There are essentially three types of function band performances: headline, background, and roaming. Headline bands are the most common; perfect for filling the dancefloor and getting the crowd moving. Background function bands are usually jazz bands - they can provide a great ambience for whatever event you might have in mind. Roaming bands are great for outdoor weddings or events where you want the band to get around to all the guests and provide a bit of audience interaction. Roaming bands are only possible as an acoustic act, so they come cord-free!
Will function bands take song requests?
Yes - but always best to ask well in advance! Most bands will be very accomodating if you've asked them to play a few special requests. Function bands are also usually very experienced, so requests on the night aren't out-of-the-question either (just don't be upset if they aren't keen to play all 23 minutes of Echoes by Pink Floyd!).
Will the function band provide all their own equipment?
Yes - most function bands will be fully equipped with their own PA system, music gear, and usually even lighting! Many will also provide a sound assistant, as well as a DJ service. A DJ service will keep the music going while the band take short breaks, but is also perfect add-on if you and your guests want to boogie into the far-reaches of the night!
