Alongside our large range of sizes of function bands in Bristol, we also have a positively huge range of styles of acts to cater to everyone's tastes. If you're hosting for a more old school rock crowd, perhaps one of our 50s rock 'n' roll groups may take your fancy. For an even more old fashioned and catchy soundtrack, perhaps a 20s or 30s swing cover could float your boat. We offer anything from 80s cheese, smooth jazz and funk, Bollywood, R&B, disco, traditional, Celtic, and rock acts. We also offer a selection of specialist Bristol covers bands including string quartets, pianists, harpists and more.

All of our function and wedding bands in Somerset also come with their own gear, saving you the trouble of arranging lighting, PA systems, and even playlists to put on in the musician's breaks, keeping everyone rocking all night. Many acts also offer additional features like more impressive lighting, more powerful speakers, and a DJ to perform for the crowd between the live sets - a simple search, and you'll find the full package. These flexible and accommodating Bristol covers bands also adjust their line-ups to fit in with what you're after, taking into account the amount of space you have, as well as the style of party. Just get in contact, and we will help you refine your search for perfection.
