Brilliant band...getting both 60 year old and 20 year olds on the dance floor..lead vocalist exceptional. Only negative that they were still doing sound check as guests arriving and another band was meant to be playing

The Weekend Grooves exceeded our expectations!! They had a brilliant set list which they adapted to our needs and even performed our first dance song, which was very special. The dance floor was packed and we have had many comments from guests that the band was a real hit!

We hired Weekend Grooves for our wedding and honestly couldn't be happier. The band were amazing, Stephanie's vocals were INSANE & Paul was a dream to communicate with - stress free! Paul also sorted our DJ and played the sax along side which was the perfect start to our day. The whole band even got involved with our fancy dress theme which made it even more fun! If you're looking for something special - hire Weekend Grooves! You won't regret it!!!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our energy on stage and the constant interaction with the crowd.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Too many too mentioned them all; but below is a list of a few: - ICC in Birmingham - Warner Brothers Studio - Cas' Mila Restaurant - Ibiza - Chateau de Lartigolle - France - The Old Kent Barn - The Law Society

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars, Pharell, Prince and many more.

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

Warner Brother Anniversary Party back in 2018

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?

Yes we offer from a 4-piece to a 10-piece band, with a number of AdOns that can be also added to the band options.

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. This is a really popular request and we actually offer this service free of charge for up to 30mins after the band has finished. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we can provide this for an additional fee.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

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

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

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

Our PA and basic lighting system is included in your quote. We're self sufficient.

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 for your first dance, we are happy to do this for you.
