Reviews of R&B Bands available in Ipswich

5/5 from 413 reviews
Photo of The New Mojos The New Mojos "I’d like to live a 5 star review for the New Mojo band fronted by Paul and Jo. They played at my wedding at Hever Castle this last summer and did an excellent job. They traveled all the way from Norfolk to Kent. They didn’t only play but they supported us in other ways through the wedding. They all looked amazing and they played beautifully even if we run out of time due to the wedding running late. I’d like to say a very huge thank you to them from the bottom of my heart." Based in Norwich, England (40 miles from Ipswich) 20th September 2026 Liz - Wedding Photo of Project F Project F "Project F were unbelievable, from start to finish. The song choices were spot on, they sounded incredible, their presence was brilliant and they kept everyone dancing all night. Plus, to top it off, they were all such lovely people who kept in touch with you from booking them, all the way up to the event, asking if there were certain songs we wanted or how we wanted them to set up or what to wear etc. We couldn’t recommend Project F enough. They were truly fantastic!!" Based in Margate, England (48 miles from Ipswich) 18th October 2026 Curtis - Wedding Booker Photo of Midé Midé "Midé was absolutely fabulous! He brought the energy and love. So kind and the best vibes, everyone loved his performance. It was such a treat to work with you and he brought the best energy to the office." Based in London, England (67 miles from Ipswich) 23rd October 2026 Midé - Corporate event Photo of Wedding Saxophonist / Saxy Jmusic Wedding Saxophonist / Saxy Jmusic "Amazing saxophonist played all the right tunes and brought a great vibe to the dinner party. Everyone was singing along and dancing. He really excelled our expectations and my guests absolutely loved him and his playlist. Great guy and would definitely use him again. A great time was had! Thanks so much" Based in London, England (67 miles from Ipswich) 10th August 2026 Elaine - 40th Birthday Dinner party Photo of Sax by Impulse ⚡ Sax by Impulse ⚡ "I was looking for a Saxophone player for an intimate birthday dinner for my dad's 70th birthday. I found Daniel on Gig Heaven, and was skeptical because I'd never used the site before. However, Daniel was very swift in his responses and also answered all my questions on our initial call. He did a fantastic job on the day and really made the event an enjoyable one. All the guests commented on how good he was and I truly feel he made the event a huge success. I would 100% recommend Daniel for anyone looking for a Saxophone player for their event. He's punctual, reliable and extremely professional." Based in London, England (67 miles from Ipswich) 25th June 2026 Elizabeth - Birthday Dinner Photo of The NeoRoots Function Band The NeoRoots Function Band "We hired the NeoRoots for our wedding and would definitely do it again. The performance, song choice, reading the room and crowd were so excellent that they ended up skipping their well deserved break between sets to keep playing and even kept on going after the agreed time. We had just under 100 people at our wedding and everyone loved them and danced to their songs for hours on end. The live performance was just excellent and you could see that they love what they do. I can not recommend them enough and if I ever have a big function I will definitely book them again. Thank you NeoRoots for our lovely evening hand great party." Based in London, England (67 miles from Ipswich) 30th March 2026 Oscar - Wedding

Many clients book R&B bands for weddings, corporate parties, birthday celebrations, gala dinners and private functions. R&B music creates a sophisticated yet soulful atmosphere that works for both relaxed dining and energetic dancing.

The R&B bands on Gig Heaven range from small three or four-piece groups to larger ensembles with backing singers and horn sections. A bigger line-up delivers a richer, fuller sound. Many bands offer flexible sizing to suit different events and budgets.

Most R&B bands are self-contained and provide their own PA system, instruments and amplification. For larger events, additional equipment may be required. Gig Heaven recommends confirming technical requirements with the band before booking.
