About George Zebra

The Festival-themed power trio! Hundreds of events and a huge set list guaranteed to wear out the dance floor!
Mumford folk band
Aylesbury
Public liability insurance of £10 million

The name, George Zebra, says it all! A fun spin on the name of modern pop/folk/indie icon George Ezra, the lads embody this ethos in their performances and playing. George Zebra was formed by three mates - Sam, Owen and Mark - through their love of performing music together. They are masters of their instruments, constantly honing their skills and bringing them forth for audiences such as yourselves. You'll see they have a fabulous time performing on stage, and this permeates their audiences, filling dance floors and wearing out shoe soles! Over the five years the guys have been working together, much has been achieved. With performances all over the country for weddings, corporate events and parties, they've performed on ferry steamers, in tipis, open fields, manor houses and everything in between. Their professional and considered approach means they are adaptable to situations - if timings change, if there's sound limiters, if there are requests - they can move accordingly and guarantee 100% satisfaction. They're the best of friends, and you'll be glad you booked them with their combination of charm, high performance and professionalism, you won't go wrong with George Zebra.

We honestly can’t praise the band enough! Our wedding day was amazing with great music to dance to all day and we had so many compliments on the music. We had them booked all day (from ceremony to end of day) and it was worth every penny! We were so grateful they learnt the songs for us to walk down the aisle too and our first dance. These covers were beautiful and we honestly couldn’t fault them! Thank you so much for Helping make our wedding day so enjoyable!

George Zebra made our wedding party a night to remember! Our guests keep telling us how great they were! They learned and played our first dance song well so we could perform our choreographed dance - it couldn't have been more perfect! Highly recommend the soloist for our ceremony and drinks too, the perfect backdrop we wanted :)

Love love love these guys. Gary was super-helpful the whole time and we had a wonderful day with the guys providing the music. We had the 'George Zebra Power Trio' which did exactly as the name suggests! Never a dull moment on the dance floor, and we loved their song choices! Thank you again!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

They love our name, our vibe, our attention to detail, our varied and fun set with energy!!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We've played many wedding venues all over the UK. Sometimes it's pubs, or beer gardens, in forests, barns and many others! Venues include... Cliveden House, Hedsor House, Down Hall, Colville Hall, Brinsop Court, Oxleaze, Notley Abbey, Bury Manor Barn, Two Woods Estate, Owlpen Manor, OXO Tower, The Dorchester, One Marylebone and many more

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Mumford and Sons, Lumineers, Coldplay, Oasis, and of course, George Ezra!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Each one of the many weddings over the last couple of years! You won't have seen us on the TV, but we treat every performance as the most important one, because it's YOUR most important one.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes. We can offer solo, duo, trio and quartet band sizes depending on your needs, and budget.

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

No problem! Let us and know and it's highly likely it will be perfectly fine. Any significant changes may incur additional cost, but we are always aware that timings can be slightly fluid on the big day!

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

Absolutely. We include this as standard before, between and after sets (typically while setting up and packing away), but we can also extend this for an extra fee. Let us know what you need and we'll work something out!

How much time do you need to set up?

90mins is the ideal minimum for the four piece band.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Absolutely! We're experts at this and love entertaining guests up close and in small groups. We have battery amplification too, so we can wander in the remotest of places and still be heard!

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

Yes, absolutely, although it's sometimes better to let us know which songs you'd prefer NOT to hear. We've built the set to enable us to follow the vibe of the dancefloor and keep guests entertained, so like to have flexibility to play the songs which are going to make the party memorable for being the best ever!

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

It most certainly is! All PA and lights will come to every event we perform. If we're to play a large venue (200+ guests), then it's possible we may need to hire additional equipment, but let us know and we'll work something out!

Can you learn song requests before the event?

You bet we can! First dances, favourite songs... just let us know! We will need advance notice, and we'll need to confirm it's possible with time and instrumentation in advance, but it's very rare it can't be done!
