Reviews of Funk Bands based near Huddersfield

4.9/5 from 23 reviews
Photo of Retrophonic UK Retrophonic UK "I can’t recommend Retrophonic enough. So many of our guests after the wedding said how great they were. They were really professional and friendly, working with us to get a set list we’d love. They sounded amazing and most importantly got everyone up dancing. Definitely one of the best wedding bands out there!" Based in Huddersfield, England Rebecca Beggs - Private Wedding Photo of South West Band South West Band "We wanted something a little different for our wedding — not just the typical DJ playing the same songs on repeat. Since we absolutely love live music, we knew the band had to be something special. When I came across South West Band on Instagram, I was instantly blown away. From the first clip I saw, I knew they were the ones. Not only are they unbelievably talented, but they also know exactly how to get the crowd hyped and keep the dance floor full all night long. Honestly, BOOK THEM — it’s an absolute must! They were one of the best parts of our entire day, and we have zero regrets. If we could do it all over again, we’d choose them in a heartbeat. 10/10, without a doubt!" Based in Leeds, England (14 miles from Huddersfield) 8th April 2026 Kayleigh McClarnon - Wedding Photo of Flat Cap Brass Flat Cap Brass "The band were a large part of what was a perfect day long in the making, but ended up turning out better than we could have possibly hoped for." Based in Leeds, England (14 miles from Huddersfield) Jane - Wedding Photo of Aiden Grimshaw Aiden Grimshaw "Aiden and co helped make our day truly magical. Such talented musicians with beautiful arrangements and unusual covers. Aiden's voice was rich and soulful and the whole process of booking with them was a delight. Thank you so much!" Based in Manchester, England (22 miles from Huddersfield) Natasha Martone - Private wedding Photo of Sister Big Stuff Sister Big Stuff "Great. The best performance we’ve had in the Angel." Based in Manchester, England (22 miles from Huddersfield) Steve - Angel Inn, Knutsford. Photo of Midnight Shindig Midnight Shindig "Before Alicia and Michael got engaged we had been on a few amazing nights out where Midnight Shindig had played. We knew a great band makes an evening wedding party....and they 210% did. Midnight Shindig- you were amazing. For Paul and I (and I feel confident to speak for the bride and groom as well) you were the cherry on our cake. Thank you SO SO much for the memories. ??" Based in Middlewich, England (42 miles from Huddersfield) Paul Corteen - Private Wedding, Wrexham

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.

The funk bands for hire 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
