Christmas party Function Bands for hire in Gloucestershire
Latest reviews of our Christmas Party Function Bands in Gloucestershire
"Absolutely fantastic! We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better band for our wedding! They were absolutely fantastic from start to finish — incredibly talented, full of energy, and kept everyone entertained throughout the evening. They sang our first dance song for us and, after I asked, even changed the lyrics slightly to make it extra special. It was such a lovely personal touch and meant so much to us. Their playlist was absolutely perfect for us and our guests, and we had so many people come up to us during and after the wedding to say how brilliant they were. Even our wedding planner, who sees bands performing at weddings practically every day, commented on how fantastic they were — which says a lot! They really helped make the evening so special and created exactly the atmosphere we had hoped for. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them and to have had them perform at our wedding. I’m already trying to think of an excuse to throw another party just so we can have them play again! 😂 We would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing band. Thank you so much for making our wedding evening so memorable — you were incredible! ❤️"
Emily hired Mojo for a Wedding (available in Gloucestershire)
"Mojo played at my husbands 50th and were brilliant. Great communication prior to the event and we’re happy to add a special request to their playlist for the night. They got everyone up and dancing and I can’t recommend them enough. A really talented bunch of guys and a pleasure to have at our event."
Emma hired Mojo for a Birthday party (available in Gloucestershire)
"We cannot recommend Mojo enough. From start to finish, they brought so much energy and joy to our wedding day. One of our favourite requests was asking them to learn a few Filipino songs for the day, and it completely paid off. Despite none of them being Filipino themselves, the effort and dedication they put into learning the songs was so clear, they performed them without a hitch. It meant so much to us. The moment they started playing, my side of the family and our Filipino guests flooded the dance floor, singing along at the top of their lungs. It's one of my favourite memories from the whole day and something my husband and I will never forget. The band read the room perfectly all night, keeping everyone dancing and having the time of their lives. So many of our guests came up to us afterwards just to say how brilliant they were. If you're looking for a band that will make your wedding unforgettable, book Mojo. You won't regret it."

FAQs about hiring Christmas Party Function bands in Gloucestershire
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of performance should I expect from a function band?
Good question! There are essentially three types of function band performances: headline, background, and roaming. Headline bands are the most common; perfect for filling the dancefloor and getting the crowd moving. Background function bands are usually jazz bands - they can provide a great ambience for whatever event you might have in mind. Roaming bands are great for outdoor weddings or events where you want the band to get around to all the guests and provide a bit of audience interaction. Roaming bands are only possible as an acoustic act, so they come cord-free!
Will function bands take song requests?
Yes - but always best to ask well in advance! Most bands will be very accomodating if you've asked them to play a few special requests. Function bands are also usually very experienced, so requests on the night aren't out-of-the-question either (just don't be upset if they aren't keen to play all 23 minutes of Echoes by Pink Floyd!).
Will the function band provide all their own equipment?
Yes - most function bands will be fully equipped with their own PA system, music gear, and usually even lighting! Many will also provide a sound assistant, as well as a DJ service. A DJ service will keep the music going while the band take short breaks, but is also perfect add-on if you and your guests want to boogie into the far-reaches of the night!
