Mumford & Sons Style Wedding Bands in Herefordshire

Book a Mumford & Sons style wedding band in Herefordshire

For a wedding with a rustic, festival feel, a Mumford-style wedding band is hard to beat. Across Herefordshire, 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.

Across Herefordshire, folk-rock wedding bands are booked for weddings in and around Ross-on-Wye, Leominster and Hereford. Venues in the area include How Caple Court, The Haybarn and Homme House, and barns, marquees and gardens like these are exactly where this style of band shines.

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.

We've been booking live bands since 1999, and every folk-rock wedding band on this page covers Herefordshire. Travel is built into the quote, the band brings what it needs to be heard, and you can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

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.

A trio or four-piece typically starts from around £1,000, while a larger band for an afternoon and evening can reach £3,000 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.

Rather than a generic demo, each act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio, a song list and client reviews. Between them you'll get a clear sense of the sound and the show well before the day.

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.
