Wedding Bands in Lancashire

Live wedding bands for Lancashire weddings

From the wooded Ribble Valley to the heather-clad West Pennine Moors, Lancashire gives couples a wide range of rooms to fill, and every one sounds different once it's full of guests and dancing.

Hireaband has been booking live wedding music since 1999, and we know Lancashire well: the Ribble Valley and the Pennine moors, and the venues built into them. Every band listed here travels to Lancashire as standard, brings its own PA and lighting, and sets up and clears away on the night.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £1,400 to £2,600, depending on line-up, date and season
  • Always included: PA system, stage lighting and travel costs, in every quote
  • Line-ups from three-piece to eight-piece, with playlist music between sets
  • Most couples book 12 to 18 months ahead for a summer Saturday
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Room size matters more than guest numbers. A four or five-piece suits most Lancashire function rooms and barns comfortably, filling a dance floor without overwhelming the space. Bigger halls and marquees carry a six to eight-piece well, where brass or a second vocalist adds real weight. Smaller, more intimate venues often work best with a trio and a longer playlist between sets. Tell us your venue and we can usually say what has worked there before.

Most couples spend between £1,400 and £2,600. The number of musicians is the biggest factor, followed by the day and the time of year — a Tuesday in October can cost less than a Saturday in May, and there is often value in an off-peak date if your budget is tight. PA, lighting and any travel costs are included in the quote you receive, so the figure you're given is the figure you pay.

Every band's page carries video and audio of that exact line-up, so you can see the band in action and hear the musicians who would actually play at your wedding, rather than a generic demo — alongside their full song list. Underneath are written reviews from couples who have already booked them, often at venues you will recognise. Between the videos, the set list and the feedback, you can form a clear picture of the evening well before you commit.

Use the instant quote button on this page and enter your date and venue to see pricing and availability straight away. Once you've chosen a band, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day itself. Every booking comes with a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the wedding day if anything needs sorting quickly.

FAQs

Most Lancashire weddings book a four- or five-piece for somewhere between £1,400 and £2,600, all in including PA, lighting and travel. What moves the figure is the line-up size, the day of the week and the season.
All of it — Scorton, Aughton, Wrea Green, Great Mitton and Mellor and everywhere between, plus the surrounding towns and villages just over the county line.
Some of the grandest venues run their own noise conditions or curfews, so it's worth confirming the licence when you book — we can usually tell you what to expect if we've played there before.
Yes, in almost every case — tell us the song when you book and we'll confirm it.
Twelve to eighteen months for a Saturday in peak season; off-peak dates and weekdays hold later.
Often, yes — we run private showcases, and every act has video and real reviews.

“The band performed at our annual Christmas Party. The staff thoroughly enjoyed the bands performance and had a lovely time dancing. Thank you.”

“Stereo Jack were absolutely sensational at our wedding. From watching their videos online, and looking through their repertoire of songs, we were pretty excited about them, but nothing online does their live performance justice. I read a review, before booking, that said they should be playing Glastonbury. I thought that must be an exaggeration. It is not. They came out with tune after tune after tune, and created such a positive and fun atmosphere that had the dance floor packed all night.
All the band members are so talented, but also genuinely nice people too. They made what was already the best day of our lives even better!
Oh, and we have to say a special thank you for an incredible first dance song! We requested a specific version of Sam Fender, Will We Talk, and Stereo Jack performed it perfectly and gave us such a special moment we will cherish forever. To have learnt the song, and performed it so well, in such a short space of time is testament to their talent.
I spent a lot of time searching for a great wedding band, and I'm so happy that I found Stereo Jack. I probably shouldn't say this, but compared to prices of other bands I was looking at (who were no where near as good, by the way) I feel like we've had an absolute bargain of a deal too.
We couldn't reccomended Stereo Jack highly enough. I am going to start a savings pot to book them again!
Thank you!!!
PS. I hope the band enjoyed the (majority Newcastle United supporting) dance floor reaction to Ultrabeat, Pretty Green Eyes.... HE'S FROM BLYYYYYTH! If that was deliberate, that was some fantastic research.
PPS. All our guests have said they had a wonderful day and their own individual favourite moments, but they have ALL commented specifically on how good Stereo Jack were. We have some big music loving friends and family, including some pretty talented musicians themselves, and they couldn't believe how good Stereo Jack were.”

“This is the third corporate event for which I have hired Kickback and they never fail to disappoint. True professionals. Will be looking to book them again for 2024 for sure.”

“We just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for making our special day so amazing. Everyone was raving about how great you all were - you were all so accommodating and you really got the party going. You’re all so talented and we’ll be recommending you to everyone who needs a band for an event!! Sorry for keeping you a bit later to play champagne supernova and cheerleader haha, also apologies for our awful voices when we decided to perform ourselves!!
A special thank you for all of your help and time leading up to the day. We really appreciate it and your version of the dad and daughter dance was amazing!! I hope you enjoyed our routine!! Thank you all again - you’re super stars!!”

“The Tommy Guns were phenomenal! We were blown away by their performance and so many guests commented on how good the band was! We spoke with Jono (lead singer) a couple of times to go through song choices etc and he was really helpful and easy to talk with. We would highly recommend The Tommy Guns!”

“Fantastic from start to finish. Libbi at Hireaband was so helpful and gave me really good advice. Booking was easy and straightforward and contact with the band before the event was great. The Tommy Guns were amazing on the night - arrived and set up with no bother. The set list was spot on and they were just so much fun! Their sound is wonderful - Jono has an amazing voice. Everyone said they were brilliant and they were definitely the highlight of my birthday event. Exceeded all my expectations. Don’t hesitate to book them!”
