Reviews of Indie Bands available in Peterborough

5/5 from 469 reviews
Photo of Venus & Mars Venus & Mars "The band set up all through the one system to keep the volume at a suitable level for a BBQ in my garden. The performance was outstanding and they were friendly, professional and most of all great fun. Definitely recommend them!" Based in Corby, England (19 miles from Peterborough) Franklin - Private BBQ Photo of The John Preston Tribute Band The John Preston Tribute Band "The grooviest part of Saturday night was the early evening slot from this tight little funky punky power trio.. From New Normal disco with deeply sardonic word play, to the rocktastic vastness of Psychopox. The John Preston Tribute Band blow holes in official and official alternative narratives whilst their grooves and riffs induce altered states to facilitate their propaganda deconstructions.. A must for weddings, corporate do's and dusty festivals..." Based in King's Lynn, England (30 miles from Peterborough) Barney Biggs - The Harlequin Fayre Photo of Nuclear fusion Nuclear fusion ""Big shout out for Nuclear Fusion. They were fantastic! Played an excellent mix of tunes that had all ages up and partying. And they played them really well. We've had loads of people commenting on how brilliant they were. Very highly recommended. Thank you for a great night Nuclear Fusion!! 🥳💃🕺🎸" We had such a great time. Thank you. Lots have asked us for the name of the band!! 👌" Based in Northampton, England (35 miles from Peterborough) Loraine Elks - 50th birthday Photo of The Anthems The Anthems "Played last night at our birthday bash - they got everyone dancing - even the blokes! Absolutely brilliant and utterly professional. Worth every penny. Thanks for a great evening gentlemen." Based in Leicester, England (37 miles from Peterborough) Casrol Heyes - Birthday Party Photo of Francis Francis "These guys absolutely made our day with their performance! We were so pleased Alex and the guys could join us in Cape Town — it meant the world to us. All the guests were blown away. Every single request was met!" Based in Milton Keynes, England (43 miles from Peterborough) 21st April 2026 Jim - Wedding — Cape Town, South Africa Photo of Kind of Blur Kind of Blur "It was truly a treat watching this very clever, refreshing & innovative band. Their jazzy renditions of a mix of various pop & movie classics (& one classical piece) were executed with incredible charm & a believable authenticity. Wonderfully surprised as to how pleasantly uncontrived they delivered their interpretations. I'm greatly looking forward to future additions to their repertoire!"

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for indie bands ranges from £120 to £1,600+, with an average of £700. Rates depend on the number of band members, performance length and the equipment supplied. Indie bands range from stripped-back acoustic outfits to full electric line-ups, so the size and style of the act is the primary factor in cost.

The indie bands for hire perform indie rock, indie pop, alternative and guitar-driven music covering both classic indie anthems and modern indie hits. Many bands have a distinctive sound that brings an authentic live music atmosphere to events.

Hiring indie bands is a popular choice for weddings, birthday parties, bar and pub events, corporate parties and festivals. Indie music appeals to audiences who want something more distinctive than mainstream pop and rock cover bands.

Many indie bands play a mix of well-known indie covers and their own original material. Some bands focus entirely on covers of popular indie songs, while others are original artists who also take cover requests. It is a good idea to check each band's profile for their repertoire.

Wedding bookings are common, and many acts build a set that stays quieter during the meal before moving to a full electric performance later in the evening. Most will learn a first dance song given a few weeks' notice. Couples who want the same sound during the ceremony usually book a stripped-back acoustic line-up of the same act.

Four or five players is the most common shape, usually vocals, guitar, bass and drums, with keys added where the material calls for it. Three-piece acts work well in smaller rooms and cost less to book. Larger line-ups adding brass or extra vocals are available where the stage and the budget allow.

Most are self-contained for pub, bar and small function work, bringing a PA suited to the room and basic stage lighting. Larger venues, festival stages and outdoor bookings usually need production supplied separately. Giving the act the room size and whether a house system is available lets them judge what to bring.

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.
