About Re-Release

We are a fantastic party band from Bristol, guaranteed to make your wedding, special party or corporate event a memorable occasion.
Wedding band
Bristol
Public liability insurance of £10 million

RE-RELEASE is a wedding and party band located in Bristol and is available to perform at various events across the South West. Our musical lineup consists of lead vocals, lead guitar, bass guitar, keyboards and drums with backline vocal harmonies. We go the extra mile to create that wow factor for you so that your special occasion is memorable. As a wedding and party band, we think it’s important to sound authentic to the original artist and we do! We recognise that every audience is likely to be different and has specific requirements.  With this in mind, we have put together a repertoire of hits from the ‘60s right up to the present day, to guarantee a great night's entertainment for every audience, every age group, and every occasion.  So, if you like rock and pop or prefer funk, disco and Motown we will be happy to match your specific requirements to our repertoire of songs.  We pride ourselves on providing professional service to you and your guests. Getting the basics right is an important first step in delivering a special performance - we will always turn up to your event on time, be courteous to you and your guests and work hard to make your special occasion a really memorable event.   We will agree on our dress code with you in advance as part of pre-booking discussions – so whether it’s a black-tie or a more casual event you can be sure that we will blend in. Listening to a live band is all about what you hear and what you see. You can be confident that we provide both - a full lights show to support our musical performance and entertaining rapport with the audience so that everyone has a great time. With advance notice, we would be happy to rehearse that special slow number for the bride and groom’s first dance, or that special song for those celebrating an anniversary or birthday. In addition to providing top-class live music, we also provide background music to cover intervals.   A full DJ service can be provided if this is requested in advance, as part of the booking process.

The band was the perfect fit for this event. The communication pre-event was outstanding. They delivered a varied mix of genres at a nice lick. They got people up dancing, which is the litmus test for any band. On the night, their flexibility around timing was legendary. Thank you.

I booked Re-Release for a military function and what an amazing time we had. Everything including the booking and admin by Dave and his team was spot on. Keeping me updated with everything that the band and myself needed to do to make it a success. The band turned up with plenty of time to spare to set up, once they were ready they went and got changed and transformed into a great looking band. The performances of the night were fantastic with a great selection of music and plenty of people got up dancing earlier than anticipated and a great time was had all around. Overall if you hire Re-Release they will guide you through the process, keep you updated and more importantly impress on the night. Dave I personally would like to thank you for your hard work and please pass on my thanks to your team. John Culshaw

Re-Release played at my 60th birthday just the other evening and I’m still trying to recover from dancing all night long 😂🤣😂 They were absolutely amazing & I would thoroughly recommend them. All of my guests were complimentary towards them too. They have a great list of tunes you can choose from along with a really easy & professional booking service too. 💃🏾🕺🏼💃🏾 Can we do this party again soon? I really did not want the evening to end, so, ‘thank you’ Re Release for giving it that extra bit of sparkle

Re-release played our wedding in August ‘24 and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. Dave was highly organised and great to correspond with via email, getting everything organised easily. The band have a really great list of songs to choose from and on the night were truly amazing; so many of our guests commented on how talented they were, and we had so much fun dancing the night away! Thanks again re-release, for being so awesome!
