Mumford & Sons Style Wedding Bands in Bristol

Banjo, fiddle and foot-stomping folk for weddings in Bristol

Folk-rock bands are one of the most popular choices for barn and marquee weddings. Wedding bands across Bristol bring banjo, mandolin, fiddle and double bass, often play an acoustic set during the drinks reception, then turn the evening into a full-on foot-stomping party.

Popular event venues in Bristol include Nailsea Tithe Barn, Goldney Hall and Old Down Manor, and our folk-rock wedding bands play weddings across the city centre, Clifton and Harbourside. Tell us your venue and the feel you're after when you enquire and we'll suggest acts that suit both.

Within this category you'll find Mumford-style folk bands, bluegrass and hoedown acts, and folk-rock bands with a Celtic edge. Many play folk versions of pop and rock hits as well as the classic folk anthems, and their song lists show exactly what they cover.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched live bands with events of every size. The folk-rock wedding bands listed here all travel to Bristol, 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 £1,000 for a smaller band to £3,000 or more for a larger line-up, depending on date and set times
• Mumford-style folk, bluegrass, hoedown and folk-rock covers
• Acoustic reception sets and full evening party sets
• Travel is included in every quote
• Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Check the room and any sound limiter before you choose. Folk-rock bands can play quieter than a typical covers band, which helps at venues with a limiter, but the full evening set still needs power and floor space.

Expect to pay from around £1,000 for a smaller band up to £3,000 or more for a larger line-up. Line-up size matters most, then the date and extras such as an acoustic reception set. Every quote includes travel, so nothing is added later.

Each folk-rock band's page carries real video, audio, a song list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how a band works a room than any description can.

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.
