Photo of Neil Bailey's Pluma Dorada Neil Bailey's Pluma Dorada "Neil Bailey's 'Pluma Dorada' does not disappoint at all. You instantly lose yourself in his music as soon as he starts playing. Also a lovely man to meet in person. 'Pluma Dorada' you were a pleasure to work with and your set was out of this world  Artistic movement" Based in Bristol, England (59 miles from Swansea) Artistic Movement - Gig Photo of Groove Jacks Groove Jacks "We booked Groove Jacks for the Wrington Beer Festival and they were very professional from start to finish. Arrived on time, were very friendly and helpful and played a great set that had the audience up and dancing, highly recommended." Based in Bristol, England (59 miles from Swansea) Neil Phillips - Wrington Beer Festival Photo of Saxophone in England recording/performing Saxophone in England recording/performing "I just recently played at a little wedding celebration - the happy couple and their toddler, and me with my little set up playing in the corner while they ate cake. Even the kid danced a little, and they had a good afternoon. Here is their review sent to Encore (who did the booking): Alex L, 1 hour ago Wedding in Blackfriars Priory, Ladybellegate St, Gloucester GL1 2HN, UKSean was our saxophonist for our elopement wedding and I can not fault him at all! He was so accommodating with our song requests/genre and even played a few songs for our toddler. Absolutely fantastic. The venue commented on how great he was and so did everyone we showed the videos to. Would 110% recommend and would love to have Sean again at another event. Thanks Sean! :)" Based in Bristol, England (59 miles from Swansea) Alex L - I played at their "elopement" party Photo of Kate Stevens - Live Lounge Kate Stevens - Live Lounge "Kate Stevens has a beautiful and mellifluous voice that was pitch perfect at the the wedding. Not only that Kate is a gorgeous person and looks stunning! Kate was very conscientious in the build up to the event and went out of her way to ensure that the day went smoothly ,a very professional performer. The singing was so good that both the bride and groom were reduced to tears... can't say better than that. I would recommend Kate Stevens to anyone and would be happy to be contacted for a reference." Based in Andover, England (109 miles from Swansea) Tim Belson - Wedding Photo of Almaz & All That Jazz Almaz & All That Jazz "We booked Almaz for a Charity event held at The Virgin Money Lounge in Manchester. They were extremely professional, arriving on time to set up and tune up. Their set created the perfect atmosphere for the day. They are both exceptionally talented and do a lovely repertoire of both originals and covers. I couldn't rate them any higher or I would have. Thanks again for all your support!" Based in Chester, England (117 miles from Swansea) Taisie Brennand-Carter - Virgin Money Lounge Photo of Rev Ferriday Rev Ferriday "Check out the good Reverend on the internet and you’ll see this outfit described as “somewhere between Johnny Cash and Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds” with “similar artists” given as Seasick Steve and Eddie Martin – to which I might add, on the evidence of this lowdown and dirty blues CD, The Rolling Stones (60s version) and maybe vintage Canned Heat. Reverend plays guitar and drums, and he is aided and abetted by Owen Bray on guitar and blues harp, with Neil Sadler also providing bass and drum support. Ferriday started out playing indie-rock in the 80s and was working in National Debt with Michael Messer (and Bray) around the start of the millennium. This is his second album under his own name and the leader’s vocals are thick and mean, the songs direct and energetic, the sound gritty, raw, and real, with elements of the hard-driving North Mississippi hill country approach in places, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf and more than a tinge of alt-blues. A thoroughly modern blues album in other words, whilst drawing from the deep well of blues tradition, check it out. Norman Darwen" Based in Reading, England (128 miles from Swansea) Norman Darwen - Blues Matters

Frequently asked questions

Hiring blues bands typically costs between £110 and £1,550+, with an average of £420. The price varies based on band size, set length and the musicians' experience. Blues bands range from lean trios to larger outfits with horn sections, and line-up size is usually the main cost factor.

The blues bands for hire cover a wide range of blues styles including Chicago blues, Delta blues, blues rock, soul blues and modern electric blues. Many bands also incorporate elements of rock, funk and soul into their sets. It is worth listening to audio samples on each band's profile to find the right style for your event.

Events that commonly feature blues bands include pub and bar events, private parties, weddings, corporate functions, festivals and club nights. Blues music creates a soulful, energetic atmosphere and works well for events where guests want to listen, dance or both.

A typical booking for blues bands covers two to three hours, usually split into sets with breaks. Blues performances often feature extended improvisations and guest solos, so set lengths can vary depending on the style and line-up of the band. It is advisable to discuss the preferred format when making an enquiry.

Most blues bands are self-contained and provide their own instruments, amplifiers and PA system. For larger venues or outdoor events, additional sound equipment may be required. It is a good idea to confirm equipment details with the band before booking.
