Photo of Bongo With The Flow Bongo With The Flow "The absolute highlight of our wedding in Mallorca! His incredible bongo skills lit up the dance floor, blending perfectly with the DJ and keeping everyone dancing all night." Based in Wilmslow, England (48 miles from Blackpool) Marion - Destination Wedding Photo of Sparky , Dr Dub and the Wailer blues trio Sparky , Dr Dub and the Wailer blues trio "If you walked into The Pocket blindfolded last week you might have thought Tom Jones had dropped by to front this power trio. But there's no mistaking why they call Stephen Bailey 'The Wailer', as he fills the room with deep guttural blues you could be back in 50's Mississippi. With a rhythm section tighter than a bungee jumper's harness and keyboard skills that could give Jools Holland a run for his money, these guys mean business! Jordan Worsfold Musical Coordinator The Pocket, Keswick" Based in Carlisle, England (75 miles from Blackpool) Jordan Worsfold musical coordinator - The Pocket Keswick Photo of Prem Royale Entertainment Prem Royale Entertainment "Prem provided something different for my jago entrance. Two dhol players and a folk singer. Everyone was on there feet, and the dancefloor was packed full of energy. Will definitely recommend prem" Based in Birmingham, England (104 miles from Blackpool) 8th April 2026 Jag - Jaggo Photo of Jord Percussion (DJ Bongos) Jord Percussion (DJ Bongos) "I've been to a few of Jord's gigs and she is an unbelievably gifted percussionist/drummer whose passion for rhythm and music shines through in every time she performs. Whether she's playing live, or collaborating with other musicians, her timing, creativity, and energy elevate the entire musical experience. I've had the privilege of seeing her perform multiple times, and each time I'm blown away by her skill, precision, and stage presence. She brings both technical expertise and a deep sense of musicality to her craft, making her not only a great performer but also an inspiring artist to work with. If you're looking for an authentic, reliable, and talented drummer or percussionist for any event, or collaboration - look no further. Highly recommended!" Based in Birmingham, England (104 miles from Blackpool) Jenny Foran Photo of The Dhol Unit The Dhol Unit "OMG the best Dhol players ever. Everyone at the event was talking about how amazing they were. The way they made an entrance with the bharathi behind was outstanding. All dressed in a beautiful traditional black attire and coordinated in every manner. Even the event manager said it’s by far the best he has seen. Thank you so much for making the day even more special honestly had it not been for the lads I can honestly say it would’ve been bland. Everything arranged over the phone for the time of arrival and the lads were already there waiting. Thank you again hopefully we will meet again soon." Based in Birmingham, England (104 miles from Blackpool) Mehnaz Photo of Paolo Amon Paolo Amon "Paolo is simply amazing! I booked him for a party and his energy was dope. He is a nice guy too, no words :) 10 /10 for sure. Will book him again. Thanks Paolo" Based in Dublin, Leinster, Ireland (135 miles from Blackpool) 29th June 2026 Andrea

The average cost of hiring drummers is £230, with prices from £75 to £850+. Pricing depends on the style of drumming, performance length, equipment requirements and whether the drummer is performing solo or as part of an ensemble. Options range from percussive DJ sets and body percussion to traditional acoustic drum performances.

The drummers on Gig Heaven include drum kit players, tabla players, djembe players, cajon players and electronic drum performers. Many drummers are versatile session musicians who can perform as soloists, join an existing band or provide percussion alongside a DJ.

Events that commonly feature drummers include corporate events, parties, product launches, DJ sets that need live percussion, recording sessions and team-building workshops. Live drumming adds energy and visual spectacle to any event.

Many drummers specialise in performing live percussion alongside a DJ set, adding a dynamic, visual element to dance music. This combination is popular at weddings, corporate parties and club events. It is worth discussing this format with the performer when making an enquiry.

Most drummers bring their own drum kit or percussion instruments. For larger venues, microphones and additional amplification may be needed to balance the drums with other performers or a PA system. It is advisable to confirm equipment and space requirements before the event.
