Brass Bands for hire in Leicester
Latest reviews of our Brass Bands in Leicester
"Deep Down Brass played for our wedding day drinks reception in Cirencester and they were AWESOME. The band met us outside the church and walked us through the town into our reception playing 'signed sealed delivered' and it was so much fun. The setlist was so good and they're incredibly talented musicians. Plus, they were so responsive in the build up to the wedding which made organising logistics and timings so much easier! We would recommend Deep Down Brass to anyone looking for an awesome brass band :)"

"I cannot recommend Deep Down Brass enough. We recently used them for our wedding and through out the whole process they were brilliant. They were really communicative, friendly and accommodating to our requests (even some last minute changes). The performance on the day was brilliant, our guests loved them. The range of songs meant there was something for everyone. I'd highly recommend them (especially their My Chemical Romance mix!). We're now wracking our brains for another reason to book them! "
