"What a truly amazing night Maz and I had at our wedding at Delbury Hall Shropshire thanks to you guys (THE RETROS) you were fantastic and took me back to the 60’s70’s etc. Incredible music and great singing from you all, if I had closed my eyes I could have been back in the Cavern Club. Your music range is great you sing everything pop, modern, the lot! I’ve seen a few bands in my time but you guys are right up there! If anyone is looking for a band for a function etc look no further, as in the words of my favourite song by the SEARCHERS (when you walk in the room) you guys just nailed it. Thank you for a great time we will definitely try to get to see you again. All the best keep the music going Look after yourselves. Very very kind Regards, Maz & Martin"

FAQs about hiring Christmas Party Function Bands in Gloucester
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of performance should I expect from a function band?
Good question! There are essentially three types of function band performances: headline, background, and roaming. Headline bands are the most common; perfect for filling the dancefloor and getting the crowd moving. Background function bands are usually jazz bands - they can provide a great ambience for whatever event you might have in mind. Roaming bands are great for outdoor weddings or events where you want the band to get around to all the guests and provide a bit of audience interaction. Roaming bands are only possible as an acoustic act, so they come cord-free!
Will function bands take song requests?
Yes - but always best to ask well in advance! Most bands will be very accomodating if you've asked them to play a few special requests. Function bands are also usually very experienced, so requests on the night aren't out-of-the-question either (just don't be upset if they aren't keen to play all 23 minutes of Echoes by Pink Floyd!).
Will the function band provide all their own equipment?
Yes - most function bands will be fully equipped with their own PA system, music gear, and usually even lighting! Many will also provide a sound assistant, as well as a DJ service. A DJ service will keep the music going while the band take short breaks, but is also perfect add-on if you and your guests want to boogie into the far-reaches of the night!
