"We hired the Soul Searchers for my partner's 30th birthday party and they were fantastic. Communication with Tom was great all the way leading up to the party and everyone was super friendly. They were brilliant on the night, and played songs everyone loved and could dance to. Would definitely book them again, thank you so much!"

" Could not recommend highly enough! The Icono Band created a fabulous sound and atmosphere throughout the whole evening! It was so much fun and helped create the wedding of our dreams! Communication was great throughout the planning and they kindly accommodated all of our requests to make a truly unique feeling wedding. The guests loved the extra that the saxophonist brought to the evening! The Icono Band learned and played our first dance which was fabulous and we wish we could do it all again!"

FAQs about hiring New Years Eve Party Function Bands in the UK
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!
