Mumford & Sons Style Wedding Bands in the East Midlands

Book Mumford-style wedding bands anywhere in the East Midlands

From Derby, Lincoln, Kettering, Nottingham and Loughborough, the East Midlands has a huge choice of venues and a busy calendar of barn and marquee weddings. The Mumford-style wedding bands on this page cover the whole region, and many play several dates a month within it.

Across Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Nottinghamshire, the Mumford-style wedding bands listed here play barn and marquee weddings. Use the area links lower down if you'd like a list narrowed to one part of the East Midlands.

Popular venues across the region include Osmaston Park, Bardney Hall, Kelmarsh Hall & Gardens, Oddhouse Farm, Winstanley House and Tissington Hall. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we can usually say which acts have played there before.

The category covers folk-rock bands with banjo, fiddle, mandolin and stomp box. Their pages show exactly what each one plays, so you can match the act to your guests and your venue.

FAQs

It's a folk-rock band built around acoustic instruments like banjo, mandolin, fiddle and acoustic guitar, with a driving beat from a kick drum or stomp box. They play folk anthems and folk-style versions of pop and rock hits.

Most can. Many bands offer an unplugged set for the drinks reception, often moving among guests, before their full evening set. Mention it when you enquire and we'll include it in the quote.

Yes. Bands bring their own PA and lighting for the evening set, and acoustic sets need little or nothing. The full band needs floor space and power nearby, so check both with your venue, along with any sound limiter.

From around £1,000 for a smaller band to £3,000 or more for a larger line-up. The number of musicians, the date and the length of the booking make the biggest difference, and travel is always included in the quote.

It's one of the most popular choices. The acoustic instruments and foot-stomping energy suit barns, marquees and outdoor venues, and the sound works well in rooms where a louder band might struggle.

Yes. Most folk-rock bands play folk-style versions of pop, rock and chart hits alongside folk anthems, so there's something for every guest. Each act's song list shows exactly what they cover.

Reviews

“Everyone loved the band and the music they played. Would definitely use them again!”

(5)

“Where to begin with this band! In a few words, absolutely incredible! We can not thank Paul and the band enough for everything they gave us! They absolutely stole the night and filled the dance floor from start to finish. We originally hired them because we had hoped they would give us something different to a generic wedding band - we wanted the night to feel like an epic gig and my god did they deliver! Loved every single second of it and so did every single one of our guests - young and old(er) ;)! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”

“Tommy & Sons performed at our wedding on the hottest day of the year (38 degrees!). They were professional throughout and so friendly. Due to the heat, most people were outside so were missing all the music, but the band happily set up outside instead and it turned the atmosphere into a much more relaxed, live music vibe rather than a wedding party, which was just what we were aiming for! The music was fantastic and we would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting live music at their event!”

(5)

“Hickory Smoke were the perfect band for our big day. Karl was so ready to talk to when organising our wedding, he and the band put in a great performance in the evening. They could play our first dance live which was very special. The live covers were a real crowd pleaser and the ceilidh dances were well explained so everyone could enjoy. Thanks again!”

(5)

“We couldn't have chosen a better band. They set the mood of the wedding party perfectly with a great array of different music, catering for all guests. They exceeded our expectations and we'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band in the future.”

(5)

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for Saturday evening! Phil & I, along with all our friends and family, thoroughly enjoyed Shoeshine’s performance! We really enjoyed our first dance song. Your music and band was the perfect addition to our wedding so thank you! Please pass on our thanks to the rest of the band.”
