Funk & Soul Bands in Sheffield & South Yorkshire

Book a funk and soul band in Sheffield & South Yorkshire

Funk and soul is the sound of a party that works for every generation. Across Sheffield & South Yorkshire, bands playing Motown, Stax, disco and modern soul are booked for weddings, Christmas parties, awards nights and big birthdays, because grandparents and twenty-somethings will both know the songs and both want to dance.

Sheffield & South Yorkshire has plenty of places to throw a party, from Whirlowbrook Hall and Sheffield Town Hall to Whitley Hall Hotel. Our funk and soul bands travel right across the area, including the Peak District edge, Sheffield and Rotherham, so wherever you've booked, the band will come to you.

Not every soul band sounds the same. You'll find Motown revue-style acts with sharp suits and harmonies, funk bands built around bass, drums and horns, disco specialists, and bands who blend soul classics with recent hits. Knowing the mood you're after makes comparing them much easier.

We've been booking live bands since 1999, and every funk and soul act on this page covers Sheffield & South Yorkshire. Travel is built into the quote, the band brings the PA and lights it needs, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

• Typical cost: from around £1,000 for a smaller line-up to £3,500 or more for a large band with horns, depending on date and set times
• Line-ups from four-piece bands to eight or nine-piece bands with a full horn section
• Two live sets plus a DJ playlist between and after sets as standard with most bands
• Travel, PA and lighting are included in every quote
• Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Check the room size and any sound limiter before you choose. A compact four-piece can play at a controlled volume in smaller rooms, while bigger line-ups with horns need more floor space and power. Many bands also offer an acoustic set for a drinks reception before the main evening sets.

Expect to pay from around £1,000 for a four-piece up to £3,500 or more for a large band with a horn section. Line-up size matters most, then the date and any extras such as an early acoustic set or a later finish. Every quote includes travel, so nothing is added later.

Every band's page has live video and audio of the musicians who would actually play, their full song list and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the energy and the sound before you commit.
