Reviews of R&B Bands available in Margate

5/5 from 418 reviews
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 18th October 2026 Curtis - Wedding Booker Photo of Version Collective Version Collective "Hire them for every celebration. They are always incredible and everyone who hears them will hire them too! Zaz has the most incredible voice: soulful, heartfelt, inspiring, funky, beautiful. My wife is a singer so it was always going to be a chore picking the right singer/band for our wedding but after hearing Version play our decision was simple. Version are INCREDIBLE. Zaz is so easy to plan events with. She and her whole band travelled up to the Highlands in Scotland for our wedding and made everything so easy for us. They were in budget, learnt specific songs for our special day and made the whole event bespoke and specific to our needs. We had them as an acoustic two piece for both the church ceremony and post-wedding lawn cocktails, before having the whole 4 piece band give three sets in the evening. Picking songs from their catalogue is so much fun, they are all bangers and performed impeccably by all. Since introducing Version to our friends and family, we have been to at least 5 weddings where they have performed with more in the pipe line. My best man had them for his 30th and 40th birthday celebrations. My wife and I got them back for our 40th birthday parties too. We have travelled to restaurants miles away just to hear them perform. You could say we are BIG VERSION FANS." Based in City of Westminster, England (65 miles from Margate) Ben (& Lucinda) Thomas - Loyal customer - birthdays, weddings, anniversary Photo of New Colours New Colours "We had New Colours play at The Queens Head and they were absolutely incredible. The range of music they played was phenomenal and they kept everyone entertained all night. They had everyone in the pub dancing and singing. Every song they did was amazing. Absolute little gem of a band. So much so, I am having them play in my other pub. Would highly recommend hiring them for the evening. An absolute pleasure to have them. Thank you so much for making the night so successful." Based in London, England (66 miles from Margate) 2nd November 2026 Stefanie Lambie, The Queens Head, Winchmore Hill, London N21 - Concert 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 (66 miles from Margate) 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 (66 miles from Margate) 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."

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.
