Soul Bands in NottinghamParty bands in Nottingham, England, United Kingdom play popular music across several decades, from Motown and classic rock to current chart hits, adjusting the setlist and energy to suit the room. Also called function bands, these acts usually run to 3 to 6 musicians and are booked for weddings, birthdays, corporate functions and private parties.
Set structure varies more than most people expect. A typical evening booking is two 45-minute sets with a break, and many bands supply a DJ playlist to cover the gap so the music never stops. Confirm how early the act needs access for setup, whether the venue has a sound limiter, and whether the band will learn a specific song for a first dance.
Rates for function bands in Nottingham range from £170 to £2,550+, with the average booking at £800. Band size is the biggest factor: a three-piece costs less than a six-piece with brass or a second vocalist. Performance length, travel distance and whether the act supplies its own PA and lighting all move the figure.
The average price for Party Bands available in Nottingham, England, United Kingdom is £800 (GBP). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Christina & Harry Acoustic Duo
"Christina and Harry are fantastic talented musicians who made our small evening wedding reception absolutely brilliant fun.
Their performance of our chosen first dance song was pure magic and made it extra special.
Whether you're looking for some background music for an event or full on party live music we can't recommend them highly enough."
Samson 65 - Live Act
"I booked Samson 65 for my brothers 40th surprise party. Professionalism and communication shone through from the initial booking till the actual party. Very fairly priced, playing songs from the 50's up to the present day, Samson 65 had the place rocking and guests up dancing all night. The atmosphere was brilliant. I would definitely recommend this duo and guarantee that you will not be disappointed."
House of Harmony
"Great singers, entertainers and a lovely atmosphere!"
Matthew Turner
"If I could give Matt an 11 I would. Couldn't have asked for a better performer for our wedding reception. Matt thought of everything and even brought his indoor speakers incase it rained (thankfully it didnt!) Music was perfect and created a great atmosphere with thoughtful song choices, thanks again, cannot recommend enough! X (10 / 10)"
Footloose
"Martin and Roy played at my Birthday Party and it was absolutely Brilliant! The Dance floor was packed from the moment they started playing to the end of the evening. Everybody said how much they enjoyed the music. It was all the songs we new from the 60's to the 90's and some contemporary ones too. The sound was fantastic. It really sounded like a 6 piece band with backing vocals all at just the right volume. If you want a great fun band that can play all your favorite hits then look no further than Footloose. Their vocals and guitars were fantastic and the extra instruments they played on the backing were spot on. Thanks Footloose"
The Skankings

They bought such an amazing atmosphere to our wedding and elevated the night beyond our expectations. I would highly recommend them, lovely people, excellent tunes and great vibes."
