Function Bands in Coventry
Party and function bands in Coventry
A function band, a covers band, a party band or a live band: different names, same thing. Whatever you call it, you're after a band that plays the songs your guests already know, arranged to fill a dance floor rather than copy the record note for note. Across Coventry, these bands are booked for birthdays, anniversaries and private parties.
Across Coventry, our function bands play hotels, golf clubs, village halls and marquees in and around Nuneaton, Rugby and Kenilworth. Venues in the area include Cheylesmore Manor House, Coombe Abbey Hotel and The Old Hall Hotel, and our bands are used to setting up in all kinds of spaces.
Function bands come in many styles. Some focus on soul and Motown, some on pop and chart hits, and others on rock, indie or decade-themed sets. Their song lists show exactly what each one plays, so you can match the band to the crowd.
Hireaband has been booking live bands for parties and private events since 1999. Every band listed here travels to Coventry as standard, brings its own PA and lighting, and sets up and clears away on the night. Use the instant quote button on this page to check prices and availability for your date.
The essentials:
- Typical cost: £1,200 to £2,400, depending on line-up, date and season
- Always included: PA system, stage lighting and travel costs, in every quote
- Line-ups from three-piece to eight-piece, with playlist music between sets
- Most parties book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday
- Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund
Plenty of our function bands play marquees in back gardens. The main things to check are a flat area for the band, a nearby power supply and a rough finish time that suits the neighbours. Mention it when you enquire and the band will tell you exactly what they need.
Most parties spend between £1,200 and £2,400. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the day and the time of year: a weekday date can cost less than a Saturday in summer. PA, lighting and travel are included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.
Rather than a generic demo, every band's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients who have already booked them, often at venues you'll recognise. Between them you'll have a clear picture of the party well before the day.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the event. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
