Latest reviews of our Corporate Event Function Bands in Scottish Borders

LeRoy And The EUPHONICS
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"I hired Leroy and the Euphonics for my 50th birthday, and they were absolutely fantastic! Before the party, they sent me their playlist and gave me the opportunity to rearrange it so it perfectly suited my tastes, which was a lovely personal touch. They were friendly, professional, and created a brilliant atmosphere from the moment they started playing. They really got everyone up dancing and made the party one to remember. They were also excellent value for money, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a great live band for a special occasion. Thank you for helping make my 50th birthday so memorable!"

FAQs about hiring Corporate Event Function bands in Scottish Borders

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!
