Pop & Rock Bands in Liverpool

Pop, rock and indie bands in Liverpool

If you want the whole room on its feet and singing, a pop and rock band is hard to beat. Bands across Liverpool are booked for corporate events, private parties and wedding receptions, and most can shape the night from indie and classic rock to floor-filling pop.

Across Liverpool, pop and rock bands are booked for events in and around the Wirral, Southport and Formby. Venues in the area include Liverpool Cathedral, The Municipal Hotel & Spa Liverpool - MGallery Collection and Titanic Hotel Liverpool — each with function rooms that can take a full band and a dance floor.

Pop and rock covers a lot of ground. Some bands lean towards classic rock and big guitar anthems, others towards indie and Britpop, and some are pure chart-pop party bands with mash-ups and medleys. A few minutes watching their videos will tell you which fits your crowd.

Hireaband has been booking live music since 1999. Every pop and rock band here travels to Liverpool as standard, brings its own PA and lighting, and the quote you receive includes travel — use the instant quote button on this page to check prices and availability for your date.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: from around £1,000 for a smaller line-up to £3,000 or more for a larger band, depending on date and set times
  • Line-ups from three and four-piece bands to six-piece bands with extra vocalists or keys
  • Two live sets plus a DJ playlist between and after sets as standard with most bands
  • Travel, PA and lighting are included in every quote
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Check the room size and any sound limiter before you choose. Rock sets can be loud, so a band used to playing at a controlled volume — or one with electronic drums — is worth considering for smaller rooms or venues with strict limits.

A three or four-piece typically starts from around £1,000, while a six-piece with extra vocals or keys can reach £3,000 or more. The date and your set times make a difference too. The price in your quote includes travel, PA and lighting, so it won't change once you've booked.

Each pop and rock band's page carries real live video, audio, a set list and reviews from previous clients. A couple of clips will tell you far more about how a band works a crowd 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.

FAQs

Expect rock classics from Queen, Bon Jovi and Fleetwood Mac, nineties Britpop and indie from Oasis and Blur, noughties anthems from The Killers and Kings of Leon, and current chart pop. Each band's page lists its full repertoire, and most will learn a first-dance or special request with enough notice.

Yes — it's one of the best choices for one. Most sets move through the decades, so older guests get the rock classics and younger guests get the recent hits, and there's always a run of songs everyone knows the words to.

Many can. If your venue has a sound limiter or a smaller room, look for a band that uses electronic drums or in-ear monitoring, and tell us about the limiter when you enquire so we can recommend acts that work within it.

Yes. Bands bring their own PA, lighting and usually a playlist for between sets. They'll need floor space for the line-up and power sockets nearby, so it's worth checking both with your venue, along with any sound limiter.

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

Most play two 60-minute or three 40-minute sets during the evening, with a playlist between sets and after the band finishes. Many also offer an extra acoustic set or a later finish if you need it.

“Hi both, we've had many compliments from our guests about your performances and we couldn't be more pleased with how things went. Not only did you provide fantastic live music, but you did it in a tight spot with minimal help from us! We sincerely believe that we could not have chosen a better band for the day and want to thank you both for coming. Mr & Mrs Miller :)”

“The Tommy Guns were absolutely fantastic! They were all so friendly and accommodating with the venue and having to carry their equipment up the hill! Their performance was incredible and the two songs they kindly learnt for us were bang on! We loved every minute of it and will be singing their praises to anyone else we know wanting to hire a band! Thank you so much!”

(5)

“We weren’t sure what we wanted music-wise – we left the whole night under Natalie’s supervision – and my goodness did she deliver – all the band were great – especially playing the old 70s numbers with a modern twist – got my daughters and my mother up dancing together – a night we will never forget – they are already booked in to do our next family event!”

(5)

“The Tommy Guns played my 50th party in July 2015 and were truly excellent. Lovely guys, timely, set-up well in advance, v polite and flexible to my requests music wise and played two brilliant sets - coupled with keeping the party going full throttle with their playlist between (and post) sets. They got everyone up dancing and made the evening for all the guests. thoroughly recommended. Thanks guys! Tim. :-)”

(5)

“We just want to say a big thank you to the guys you were amazing. Everyone was up dancing from the moment they got there right through until the end of the reception. Loads of people complimenting the band and a few asking for details so hopefully get a few more bookings for you! Once again we can't thank you enough for a great atmosphere and great music.”

(5)

“Here at the Fox we threw a big party with Hot Piece of Brass as the main attraction. We knew it would be a great night, but we definitely didn't expect the huge turnout they brought with them. The dancefloor was packed all night and the band kept everyone going for hours. They were a pleasure to work with and a great band to get people in the party spirit!””
