Danielle and I wanted to pass on our thanks to you and the band for last Friday. You were all fantastic. So many of our guests commented on how impressed they were with your performance and it was great that you were so accommodating with our requests. We hope you enjoyed it and were happy with everything. Hope to see you at another wedding in the future! All the best.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our world-class lead singer has performed globally with her striking, powerful, soulful sound and brings her infectious charisma and unfaltering passion to every party!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

The band perform at many weddings and have entertained at venues such as Aintree Race Course, Bridgewater Hall, Anfield, Cafe De Paris, Crewe Hall, The Belle Époque, Abbeywood Estate, Raddisson Blu Hotel, Mitton Hall, West Tower, Browsholme Hall, Eaves Hall, and many more. Previous clients include Centrica, Shell UK, Airbus and Oriel Chambers Barristers.

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

We strive to make sure the line-up you see is what you get on the night. We do have pre-auditioned 'dep' musicians available in case a band member falls ill or is unavailable. As a professional band, our reputation means everything so you can be confident that all of our players are of a very high level.

Do you have different line-up options?

The standard-sized band is a 4-piece, with a singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer. We can also perform in a trio format or up to a 5-piece band which usually adds a saxophone to the line-up. Please contact us for rates based on your preference.

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

We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.

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

Absolutely! You can choose either our free DJ service performed by a member of the band or our Professional DJ service, where one of our trusted DJs will keep your dance floor full and the guests on their feet all night long.

How much time do you need to set up?

We ask that clients allow 90 minutes for load-in and setting up the equipment (including soundcheck). This can be made shorter if the performance area is easily accessible, the acoustics of the room are favourable and the area is clear of furniture, ready for set-up.

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

We are happy for you to choose up to 40 tracks from our repertoire but ask that you allow us to put together the set lists based on our experience of sequencing tracks and building up the party atmosphere over the course of the evening. We’ll definitely include a large selection and work within your musical preferences.

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

Pop Central Wedding Band are fully self-contained and will bring all the equipment that they require.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn (e.g. first dance) we are happy to do this for you!
