Jewish Wedding & Event Bands in Devon

Hire a Jewish event band in Devon

The right band makes a simcha. Acts across Devon combine traditional Jewish and Israeli repertoire, klezmer and the hora with a full party set, and they're booked for weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, engagement parties and community events.

Whether your celebration is near Plymouth, Exeter and Totnes or elsewhere in Devon, the acts on this page cover the whole area. Local venues include Bickley Mill, Watermouth Cove and The Great Barn Devon. It's worth sharing the venue's layout early so the band can plan where the hora circle will go.

Within this category you'll find showbands, klezmer bands and party bands experienced with Jewish celebrations. Many offer ceremony and reception music as well as the evening band, and their song lists show exactly which Jewish and Israeli songs they cover.

Hireaband has been booking live music since 1999. Every Jewish event band here travels to Devon as standard, brings the equipment it needs, and the quote you receive includes travel. Use the instant quote button on this page to check prices and availability for your date.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: from around £1,500 for a smaller band to £4,000 or more for a large showband, depending on line-up, date and set times
  • Hora and Israeli dance sets, klezmer and a full party set
  • Ceremony, reception and evening music available
  • Travel is included in every quote
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Start with the size of the celebration and the running order. A large wedding or bar mitzvah suits a showband with several singers and a horn section; a smaller simcha suits a five or six-piece. Tell us when you want the hora and any other key moments, and we'll match you with a band that plans around them.

A five or six-piece typically starts from around £1,500, while a large showband with horns and several singers can reach £4,000 or more. The date and your set times make a difference too. The price in your quote includes travel, so it won't change once you've booked.

Every act's page has video and audio of the musicians who would actually play, their repertoire and written reviews from people who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the atmosphere before you commit.

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.

FAQs

Yes. Every band in this category plays a hora and Israeli dance set, including Hava Nagila and other favourites, and will agree the songs and timing with you before the day.

Many can. Some bands offer an acoustic or klezmer set for the ceremony or drinks reception before the main evening set. Mention it when you enquire and we'll include it in the quote.

Yes. Bands bring their own PA and lighting. Larger showbands need a good-sized stage area and power nearby, so it's worth checking both with your venue, along with any sound limiter.

From around £1,500 for a smaller band to £4,000 or more for a large showband. The number of musicians, the date and the length of the evening make the biggest difference, and travel is always included in the quote.

Yes. Bands experienced with simchas are used to fitting their sets around courses, speeches and the chair lift. They'll agree a running order with you and your caterer or planner in advance.

For weekend weddings and bar mitzvahs, a year or more ahead is common, as the most popular bands book up early. For other dates, a few months' notice is often enough.

Reviews

“We just wanted to pass on our thanks for the incredible performance you gave at our wedding on Saturday. From the first song (amazing – do you have a recording of this?) to the last, you helped us throw the party of our lives and believe me when I say EVERYONE has been talking about how awesome the music was. We’ll certainly be recommending you to one and all for any future events. Hopefully, once we manage to recover financially from the wedding (ha!), we can have you and the guys play at another event in the future for us.”

“Just a quick note to say how amazing we all thought you were on Saturday night. A joy to work with and we will be booking again next year. Seems there is a request for the guitarist to join in the dancing next year from some of the girls in the office! I don't get it myself.”

You chose great songs to play which got lots of people up dancing and made the party go with a swing. I had many super comments and feedback about you. We were really thrilled we had asked you to cover the evening. Thank you for talking me through the microphone, too. It worked fine. We appreciated your fantastic music so much and will definitely pass your details on to anyone wanting a band. Please thank the others for me. We might see you again at friends’ events. If so, we will come and say hello!”
