Mumford & Sons Style Wedding Bands in Dorset
Hire a folk-rock wedding band in Dorset
For a wedding with a rustic, festival feel, a Mumford-style wedding band is hard to beat. Across Dorset, these bands mix acoustic instruments with a driving beat, playing Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers and hoedown-style covers that get every generation of your family up and dancing.
Dorset has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Parley Manor and Hinton St Mary Estate to Kingston Country Courtyard. Our folk-rock wedding bands travel right across the area, including Bournemouth, Bridport and Dorchester, so a festival-style wedding is never out of reach.
Folk-rock bands vary in style. Some stick close to the Mumford & Sons sound with banjo and stomp box, some lean towards bluegrass and country, and others add a Celtic or Irish twist. Watching a couple of videos is the quickest way to find the one that fits your event.

Many folk-rock bands offer an acoustic set during the drinks reception, playing unplugged among guests, followed by their full evening set. Booking both from the same band keeps the day's music consistent and often works out better value.
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.
