5/5 from 168 reviews
Photo of Parry + Rekha Parry + Rekha "Beautiful voices, great entertainment for our guests. Parry and Rekha were really warm, hospitable and were very accommodating to our live requests. Super warm with our family and all around great people" Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) 11th January 2026 Tej Savani - Wedding Lunch Photo of Soul Boulevard Soul Boulevard "“We had the absolute best experience with Soul Boulevard as our wedding band! From the very first call, Matt was friendly, professional, and genuinely excited to be part of our big day. They were incredibly flexible with our requested song list and even had some suggestions based on their experience! One of the highlights for us was them learning and performing our first dance song—it meant so much and was done beautifully. On the day itself, their energy was amazing and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. So many of our guests have since told us how brilliant the band was! Thank you, Soul Boulevard, for helping to make our wedding so unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!”" Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) Tim Ming - Wedding Photo of The Groove Primitive The Groove Primitive "With Groove Primitive you can tell that they are dedicated from the first bar, but they also are fun, with a sense of humour. The funk is tight and the rockier songs have soul. Shay’s vocals are strong and she’s backed by some great players. I’ve seen them in bars and clubs, but could imagine them on a journey to filling much bigger venues in the future. Highly Recommended 5 stars – for entertainment and musical virtuosity." Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) Adrian Tanner - Function Photo of Cherry & The Sirens Cherry & The Sirens "I had such fun listening to Cherry and the Sirens at the Little Gate farm Big Festival. Their music is very swing-danceable, and the performance was professional, energetic and beautiful. I will definitely go to many more of their gigs..." Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) Philippa Beagley Photo of Xotic Steel Rhythms Xotic Steel Rhythms "I booked Xotic Steel Rhythms for our drinks reception and they were perfect so entertaining and accommodating with all our requests including the dress code and song selection that included last min song requests" Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) James - Wedding drinks reception Photo of Celebrity Band Celebrity Band "Simply the best, as they also sing.... I have loved this band and the public went crazy for them, they sing one success after the other, we were non stop singing and dancing. Thank you guys, you're amazing" Based in London, England (15 miles from Watford) Laura Carta - Live in my Pub

Frequently asked questions

Hiring dance bands typically costs between £180 and £3,000+, with an average of £900. The price depends on the number of musicians, set duration and the style of dance music. Dance bands vary from compact combos to large ensembles with horn sections, and the size of the line-up is the primary cost driver.

Typical bookings for dance bands are two to three hours of live music, split into high-energy sets designed to keep guests on the dance floor. Short breaks between sets give the band and audience a chance to reset before the next round. It is worth discussing the event schedule with the band to plan the best format.

Most dance bands bring their own PA system, instruments and basic stage lighting. Some bands offer enhanced lighting packages as an optional extra. For larger venues, additional sound or lighting may be needed. It is advisable to confirm all technical requirements before booking.
