About Late Last Night

"Late Last Night Bring Dancefloor Fillers & High Energy Performances"
Function band
Manchester
Public liability insurance of £10 million

Late Last Night play classic cover songs as you’ve never heard them before. Reworking the hits with the passion and excitement of an originals band, they offer a unique approach to your wedding entertainment music needs in a world where many bands sound and look the same. The band works with you to create bespoke packages with the perfect song choice and flow to the evening to keep audiences entertained into the late hours. This is done through: • Selecting appropriate songs from their extensive repertoire • Using their abilty to quickly learn songs you request in advance • Being a trio, they can adapt to fit almost any audience type, venue size and client request Many bigger bands with rotating line ups have to stick rigidly to their planned sets. Late Last Night are a consistent trio that can adapt on the spot to your guests, even changing their setlists mid performance if they feel your audience needs something different than planned. As well as their electric live show, all their full packages include the following extras: • Learning 2 special songs of your choice (first dances, family songs eg Irish or Jewish songs) • Playlist DJing until midnight • Bespoke set lists tailored to your musical tastes whilst still catering to all your guests • Master of Ceremonies service - Announcements, cake cutting, hosting etc • Pre-event organisation - We will work with you and the venue to organise timings to ensure a smooth flowing party vibe And you can opt to add on: • Daytime acoustic/live lounge style performances • Ceremony performances • Additional musicians • Full DJ service for later curfews and longer DJ sets Is a trio is too small? After a bigger spectacle? Late Last Night often extend their line up with additional singers, keyboard players, percussionist, Sax players, horn sections and more using the band's well-established links to the North West's musicians network. Whether you want to sit and marvel at the twists and turns of their interpretation of the classics, or get moving to their unique sound, your guests are sure to remember the great time they had LATE LAST NIGHT!

We booked late last night for our wedding in November of this year. And all I can say is wow! They were absolutely brilliant. A lot of our guests after the wedding commented how good they were. Nothing was too much trouble and they quickly got the rowdy crowd going to great effect. They have a great song list to choose from across multiple genres and will tweak their set list to accompany your needs. We saw them live at the peaky blinders bar in Manchester and wine bar in disley beforehand and decided they were the band for us after viewing and listening to a number of others. Picking LLN was certainly the best decision we made for our wedding and I would recommend them to anyone considering them not just for a wedding but for any similar social event. Hope to catch the guys again in the future. Thanks again for your input into making our wedding day a great one. Lucy and Luke.

Late Last Night performed at our wedding in July and they were fantastic. Prior to our wedding they dealt professionally and quickly with rapidly changing rules and delays due to covid restrictions. They provided lists of songs for us to choose from but were also happy to learn any alternatives. From our selections they put together two awesome sets. Everyone loved them and so many of our guests commented on how good they were during the night and after. They are a great band and a lovely bunch of people, we highly recommend them!
