Funk & Soul Bands in the North East

Find funk and soul bands for your wedding or event in the North East

Finding the right funk and soul band is easier when you can see every option in one place. This page covers all of the North East, from Durham, Middlesbrough, Jesmond and Alnwick, and every act listed travels to venues across the region for wedding receptions, corporate parties and big birthdays.

Across Durham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle upon Tyne and Northumberland, the funk and soul bands listed here play wedding receptions, corporate parties and big birthdays. Use the area links lower down if you'd like a list narrowed to one part of the North East.

Venues across the North East include Hardwick Hall Hotel, Middlesbrough Town Hall, Jesmond Dene House, Doxford Barns, Dalton Old Pump House and Acklam Hall. It's worth asking yours early about finish times and any sound limiter, as both affect what works on the night.

Not every funk and soul band does the same job. Within this category you'll find Motown, disco, funk and classic soul line-ups, many with brass, and knowing the feel you want for your wedding or event makes the choice much easier.

Most bookings fall between £1,000 and £3,500. The size of the line-up is the biggest factor, followed by the date and how long the act plays. PA, lighting and travel are included in the quote, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay, wherever you are in the North East.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performers who would actually play at your wedding or event, a full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to judge the style before you commit.
