Wedding and Party Band for hire

Have your party people hot-stepping in a heartbeat

We’re not your typical wedding & party band. Our musicians are some of the UK’s finest, and most were trained at top London music colleges like the Royal Academy and Guildhall. When we get together to play live music for weddings and functions, we’re doing what we love – bringing the party to life with great songs that will get everyone moving and grooving!

Soul, disco & funk floor fillers from intro to encore

We’ve never had a problem getting people on the dancefloor with our huge selection of soul, Motown, funk & disco classics from the last 50 years. Songs everybody knows, and rhythms anyone can bounce to! Choose your favourites from our songlist and let us whip up your party into a dancing frenzy!

When did you last hear “That funky music” played like this?

BackBeat Village guarantees a one-of-a-kind performance with custom arrangements of your favourite funk & soul hits – and high quality classic versions too. Our music is both authentic and unique.


Weddings, parties, awards ceremonies, charity events…

Every year BackBeat Village performs at a variety of different events, including corporate functions, awards ceremonies, charity events and Christmas parties, as well as numerous weddings, birthdays and other private events. The band is highly versatile and can adapt perfectly to any situation.

Live music for events nationwide

BackBeat Village is based in London, and most of our bookings are in London or the surrounding counties (including Berkshire, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, East Sussex, West Sussex, Essex and Kent). However we are happy to travel throughout the UK (or beyond!), and regularly find ourselves performing further west in Bath & Bristol, or up north in Yorkshire – and occasionally overseas!
