Jewish Wedding & Event Bands in Leeds & West Yorkshire

Hire a Jewish event band in Leeds & West Yorkshire

A Jewish wedding or bar mitzvah needs a band that knows the running order as well as the music. In Leeds & West Yorkshire, our Jewish event bands play the hora and Israeli dance medleys at exactly the right moment, then keep the dance floor full with soul, pop and party classics for the rest of the night.

Whether your celebration is near Bradford, Huddersfield and Harrogate or elsewhere in Leeds & West Yorkshire, the acts on this page cover the whole area. Local venues include Waterton Park Hotel, Oulton Hall and Left Bank Leeds. It's worth sharing the venue's layout early so the band can plan where the hora circle will go.

Jewish event bands vary in size and style. Some are large showbands with singers and a horn section, some specialise in klezmer and traditional music, and many combine a hora and Israeli dance set with pop, soul and disco. Watching a couple of videos is the quickest way to find the right fit.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched live bands with events of every size. The bands listed here all travel to Leeds & West Yorkshire, include travel in the price, and arrive with their own sound set-up where it's needed. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

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.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.

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.

“Just want to say a massive thank you for all you did to make our wedding day extra special. The professionalism of you and the band where amazing from start to finish. We had looked at a few wedding bands in the run up to the wedding and I can safely say you smashed them out of the park. People are still talking about “That band” so extra thanks there! Also a special thank you to you for taking on our request for our first dance song and executing it perfectly! I think the Script would have been proud! All the best for the future and again THANK YOU!”

“We loved you guys, and so did all our guests! Everyone had a fab time and you got everyone up and dancing almost immediately, there wasn't a time there was no one on the dance floor. I even had people asking for your details as they were thinking of booking you for their own upcoming wedding. We couldn't have picked a better band and were so pleased with you all. Thank you again!”

“ust wanted to thank you and all of The Sherlocks so much for an awesome night of playing on Saturday – you must hear this all the time but you really made the evening for us and all our guests have been raving about you! By the sounds of things you’ll be playing at quite a few events for our friends and family in future, so we hope to see/hear you again soon! Best wishes, Steph & Tom”
