Latest reviews of our New Years Eve Party Function Bands in East Sussex

Rivals Kings
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"They arrived calm and prepared, cases down, cables neat, no drama. The Rival Kings hit the first chord and the night found its pulse. The set moved cleanly through decades tight playing, vocals clear, lots of energy. They read the room well and played some bangers. Book then, you won't be disappointed. "

The Lineups
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"What a brilliant band! We hired The Lineups for our wedding in Brighton and they were even better than we could have hoped for. They had great energy and had the dance floor full for over 2 hours. Thom was really helpful and approachable leading up to the day, working out what we were after and then delivering that with a perfect set list spanning decades and different genres. On the day, they were really friendly, down to earth and professional, and you could tell how much they enjoyed playing together and to our crowd. I highly recommend The Lineups for any wedding or event. Thank you for making ourwedding day even more special! Sean and Charlotte "

FAQs about hiring New Years Eve Party Function bands in East Sussex

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!
