Fantastic band, they played at our wedding in August 2021, and we could not have been happier. They were easy to deal with, very accommodating and professional. The band sounded amazing on the night, played a great variety of songs, and the lead singer is incredible.

I think 5 stars for each category says it all. These guys are brilliant musicians and have a fantastic vocalist. They couldn't do enough for us and from minute one kept in touch, must have been the easiest night for our DJ cos everyone including him wanted them to keep going. They were true to their word and made our special day even more so. Get in quick cos these guys will be snapped up and we all know about supply and demand.

Elevation Avenue performed at the Cavendish Beer Festival and we could not have asked for any more. The band were perfect, performing a variety of hit songs guaranteed to fill the dance floor. They arrived on time and set up their set without causing any disruption to the rest of the event. Not only does the band provide an excellent set, they are all extremely friendly and a pleasure to work with. I would 100% recommend Elevation Avenue and look forward to working with them the next time I require a band for an event.

What a band! I organised my 30th birthday / charity party at the end of last year and as I’m sure many of you are aware, finding a band is a tricky business. Well in my eyes, look now further, the band plays a great mix of bluesy tunes, Motown hits and disco classics to really get your evening moving. They even let me play a couple of song with them! My work has booked them to do their work summer party this year too, repeat business can’t be bad! Cheers Guys!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

The band has been on the live music venue circuit for a few years now and we have preformed at most city centre venues around the country, including our regular residency slot at West Street Live, Sheffield. However, we have preformed at many weddings/ festivals/corporate events at more unusual venues such as castles, manor houses, town halls, and theatres.

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

Yes, the line-up is fixed including our singer. Our promo video shows the musicians you would be booking. As a professional band, it is important to us that we have a good reputation and provide you with a great performance. We do have high level dep musicians available who know our set, in case a member falls ill or is unavailable.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

Event timings often change due to various circumstances. This is a common occurrence that we are used to dealing with. We always try our best to be flexible, and we aim to help your event run as smoothly as possible. If timings / scheduling changes, just let us know.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes we are happy to provide an iPod/DJ service. This is a popular request to play between band sets. If you would like a DJ after the band set is finished until the venue closes, we can arrange this for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

We carefully put our setlists together to ensure the guests dance and have a great time! Our setlist has been refined over many years, and we know what works well to entertain the crowd!
