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 Marion - Destination Wedding Photo of Chasing Vinyl Chasing Vinyl "WOW! We are all still buzzing over our wedding day and I can't thank you both for blowing the roof off (A hard thing to do outdoors!!). Myself and Elaine really had the wedding of our dreams and your music and energy was simply beautiful. We really will be forever grateful to you both for making it so memorable. All the talent, warmth, and little personal touches you both brought to the day were very much appreciated; my Mum and the kids were delighted to be part of the band for one day only." Based in Edinburgh, Scotland Edwin & Elaine - Wedding Party 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 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 Jenny Foran Photo of Alex Magni LED Percussion Alex Magni LED Percussion "Wow! Alex is a true performer and had a wicked personality to match. Honest and reliable, we always felt in a safe pair of hands. He gave out party the energy we were looking for and his bongo skills are just epic! Thank you so much for making our event so special and memorable. Keep up the great work and can’t wait to have you back again soon! Ben and all the family x" Based in Birmingham, England Ben Turner - Garden Party Photo of King Konga - Percussionist & DJ King Konga - Percussionist & DJ "What a fantastic duo! They were excellent from the start, helping us create the vibe we wanted for our wedding. My husband and were blown away by how they interacted with the crowd, knowing exactly when to play what songs for that moment’s vibe. The dancefloor was never empty. Music has always been important to us, and I can honestly say Si and Andy made our wedding day. I have already had friends from our wedding who work within the hospitality industry ask for their details as they are a well-rounded band and make any song memorable. We highly recommend and will be booking again for future events." Based in Bedford, England Karri - Wedding (DJ, sax and percussion duo)

Events that commonly feature percussionists include corporate events, parties, DJ sets needing live percussion, recording sessions, drum circles, team-building workshops and cultural events. Live percussion adds energy, rhythm and a visual element to any performance.

Many percussionists offer interactive drumming workshops where guests participate together, playing rhythms as a group. This is a popular choice for corporate team-building events, school programmes and festival activities. It is a good idea to discuss workshop formats with the percussionist.

Most percussionists bring their own percussion instruments and any stands or accessories needed. For workshops, the percussionist often provides instruments for all participants. It is worth confirming what equipment is included, especially for group workshops.
