Enthralling audiences with our rich and boisterous tunes, Bobbley's Brizzly Grizzly Brutus Beefcake Barber Bam Bam Stompin Oompah Band boasts an ensemble of 9 talented musicians. We carry the heart of both Bavaria and Britain within our Tuba, Trombone, Euphonium, Drums, and melange of Trumpets. An extra dose of magic lies with our charismatic frontman who passionately leads audiences into the vibrant world of singing, stompin, and unruly merriment! Our performances are not bound by convention, as we cater to an extensive variety of events. Beer festivals and OktoberFests are our main forte, and our hearts are always open to engaging the public through open events and private functions, injecting them with a hearty dose of Bavarian fun! As a band, flexibility defines our approach towards performances. Whether it be the timing, content, or level of audience participation, we adapt to meet your needs. Typically, our performances comprise 3 sets in an evening, each spanning around 45 minutes. Our repertoire covers a wide spectrum - from traditional Bavarian and German Oompah music, ideal for a refined ambience, through movement and song with well known traditional song, to heart-stirring anthems that perfectly complement a lively evening of drinking and camaraderie. Additionally, we love to invite our audience to partake in the fun, be it through song, dance-offs, friendly competitions, or playing percussion. There's usually an opportunity to actually conduct the band too! Our performances are dynamic, always evolving based on audience feedback. After all, we're here to ensure everyone has a raucously good time!

They played at our wedding and were absolutely brilliant. The songs were loads of fun and accessible to everyone, which meant everyone was joining in and having the best time. The atmosphere created by the band was great, and got increasing raucous! The quality of musicianship was excellent too, you can't beat the sound of brass. If you want something a little quirky and different to the norm, and incredibly fun, book this band! I would 100% recommend them to anyone, for any event.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our performance is mostly about audience interaction, beer guzzling, and everybody having a great time! Where appropriate, it goes down really well if we get the chance to bring out the percussion for the crowd to join in with. Our conducting competition is always great fun too.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We’re mainly hired for Beer Festivals, Oktoberfest, and ‘Oompah’ Nights - but also do private events, birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and even perform at Masonic ladies nights!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Hertz Van-Rental Willie Musstiffen-Hoffen Hans Clapper

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

We’re not into ego massaging, but we did enjoy setting a few thousand walkers off on the LOROS twilight walk, playing ‘I would walk 500 miles’ at the start line!

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

Our front man is usually the same at all of our gigs; in the rare event of absence we have another just as wonderful front man who covers.

Do you have different line-up options?

Virtually all of our gigs have the same line up. In the event of rare absences such as illness or other unavoidable circumstances, we do have regular and reliable deps who perform brilliantly in just the same way.

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

Happy to discuss to see how we can adjust to fit.

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

No, this is not something we provide. We can however pipe some traditional Bavarian music through our PA during our intervals. If you require this, we tend to keep it low volume as we find that audiences like the chance to recover and chat for a few minutes in the breaks.

How much time do you need to set up?

It does depend upon the agreed performance, eg if we are to be solely acoustic, and whether our front man will be using our own or your PA, but generally at least 1 hour, ideally 2 hours, will give us plenty of time. At a push we could turn up and play acoustically in just 15 mins!

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

This isn’t really something appropriate for our performance, but if you would like to discuss or request something, let’s talk.

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

We are completely self contained - all of our PA and lights are included in our performance, unless there is a reason no to be, e.g. at your request, or no point with lights at an outside daytime gig.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

It’s not very likely, but you can always ask!
