Pop & Rock Bands in Somerset

Pop, rock and indie bands in Somerset

Pop and rock is the broadest, most crowd-pleasing sound you can book. In Somerset, bands playing rock classics, indie anthems and current pop are a favourite for office parties, weddings, festivals and celebrations, because there's something in the set for every age group.

Across Somerset, pop and rock bands are booked for events in and around Bath, Yeovil and Taunton. Venues in the area include The Roman Baths, Orchardleigh House and The Cider Barn at Dillington Estate — each with function rooms that can take a full band and a dance floor.

Not every pop and rock band sounds the same. You'll find stadium-rock specialists, indie bands, acts built around a powerful female vocalist, and party bands that move from the eighties to today in a single set. Deciding the mood you're after makes comparing them much easier.

Hireaband has been booking live music since 1999. Every pop and rock band here travels to Somerset 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

A four-piece of vocals, guitar, bass and drums covers most pop and rock sets comfortably. Adding keys or a second singer gives you a fuller sound and more harmonies, which suits larger rooms and bigger crowds. For a smaller venue, a tight three-piece can still deliver the anthems at a manageable volume.

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

Rather than a generic demo, each band'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.
