Photo of Ocean City Groove Ocean City Groove "‘Absolutely loved hearing you play in Exmouth. You have the ability to radiate happiness in abundance.’" Based in Plymouth, England Michael Buckland - Free Weekend outdoor concert at the Exmouth Pavilion Photo of The Session Band The Session Band "We hired The Session Band for our wedding in Devon. They were brilliant throughout the whole process from enquiry, to booking, to performing. Before the booking, they also gave us other options to add on if we wanted. Once we booked, they sent over their website with their library of songs. We picked a few we liked and they then built their set from that. They also agreed to play our first dance song that we requested. The band were great when they arrived and were accommodating with us as we were slightly behind schedule. Our guests absolutely loved the band and we had so many positive comments from them. In between the band sets we also went for the DJ and Saxophone option, which were great at getting people dancing towards the end of the night. Overall a brilliant experience and I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding band." Based in Cardiff, Wales 3rd November 2025 Aiden Shearer - Wedding Photo of MONICO MONICO "These guys absolutely killed it!! Every one was up on the dance floor! Cannot recommend them enough" Based in Cardiff, Wales Adam K Photo of What the Phunk What the Phunk "You were incredible, our party was all and more we wished for. Thank you for accommodating our family who also joined in the playing. Your patience and professionalism was appreciated." Based in Weymouth, England Dr and Mrs Aplin - Private Wedding Photo of The Crowd Pleasers The Crowd Pleasers "The Crowd Pleasers were pneunominal! We arrange a gig night last minute and they were our headline act and did not let us down. They were incredible, all so talented and had an amazing presence on stage. Their set list included an array of songs that got everyone dancing on their feet. Not only this, but they help us out to ensure we had all we need to make the night successful. They are all just so wonderful. I can not wait to watch them again and hopefully we will have The Crowd Pleasers at another event." Based in Newquay, England Kevin Allen - Mikes Trust 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 Alex L - I played at their "elopement" party

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for funk bands ranges from £150 to £2,650+, with an average of £800. The main factors are band size, set duration and the style of funk. Line-ups with horn sections, backing vocalists and percussion tend to cost more than smaller guitar-driven combos.

Not always. Four and five-piece groups often work without one, leaning on guitar, keys and a strong rhythm section, while the larger acts carry brass as the defining sound. Horns cost more and need more stage, so the question is usually budget and space rather than repertoire.

Hiring funk bands is a popular choice for weddings, corporate parties, birthday celebrations, festivals and any event where a packed dance floor is the goal. Funk music has a broad, cross-generational appeal and is one of the most effective genres for keeping guests on their feet.

Most carry a playlist to run through their PA during breaks so the room does not fall quiet. Some will also take a list of tracks to use in those gaps. Where the gap matters, such as during a meal, agree the break times when booking rather than on the night.

Volume is manageable in most function rooms, as bands set up smaller and play with lighter dynamics when the space calls for it. Rooms with a noise limiter are the real constraint, particularly for drums and brass, which cannot be turned down the way amplified instruments can. Give the limiter level when enquiring and the band will say whether the booking works.

The funk bands in Devon, England, United Kingdom perform funk, soul, disco, R&B and groove-driven music. Many funk bands cover classic hits alongside modern songs, creating a setlist that is focused on tight rhythms, brass hooks and getting the audience dancing.

Most funk bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments and amplification. For larger venues or outdoor events, additional sound equipment may be needed. It is worth confirming all technical requirements with the band before booking.

The funk bands on Gig Heaven range from compact four-piece groups to larger ensembles with horn sections, backing singers and percussion. A bigger line-up delivers a fuller, more powerful sound, while a smaller band can suit tighter venues and budgets. Many bands offer flexible line-up options.
