The London Roaming Band are the ultimate roaming band for weddings and events!

Musically, think playful gypsy style mashups with four-part harmonies of Drake and Bob Marley, or an intricately woven UK garage medley with a smattering of Buena Vista for good measure.

Why not give your guests something a little different when it comes to live music on your big day?

You want the band to be mobile. You want the band to be heard.
The London Roaming Band is truly unique in its ability to deliver in both respects with this bespoke mobile PA unit which has been designed and built specifically for the project.
Providing they have room to move and step-free access, the band can play songs in different parts of a room or open space within the same set. Not a wire in sight.
The volume is easily adjustable too so that they can effortlessly slip from background music into party mode.
Alternatively, for bigger events, the band can provide an onsite AV team with a perfectly balanced audio signal to feed directly into the sound reinforcement already in place.

20. Soul Flight
Average booking price: £4,000 - £6,750 (as of June 2023)
Location: London, UK
Soul Flight brings Funk, Soul and Disco back to the 21st Century.
None of the cheese, and only the best grooves to guarantee a packed dance floor all night long!
Based in London, Soul Flight are one of the UK's leading funk & soul bands, having performed at hundreds of weddings and corporate events around the UK and also in Europe.
Please take a look at our 2023 SET LIST
We're regularly booked to perform for weddings and events at Kimpton Fitzroy Hotel in London and Wasing Park in Reading, UK.
The smallest line up is the 5pc consisting of female vocal, guitar, bass, drums and keyboards - this is the perfect line up for smaller venues and events which are not able to host our bigger line ups.
View our list of the UK's best soul & Motown bands ➡️
Our female vocals are some of the best London in the business, and know exactly how to get your guests off their seats and onto the dancefloor!
To truly experience what the band can offer though, we recommend a minimum of the 7pc band which is the same as the 5pc plus male vocal and saxophone.
Our male vocalist oozes soul and your guests are sure to love him!
Having a male and female duo front the band creates a wonderful dynamic on stage, and as a team they are able to work the crowd much better.
Our saxophone player is one of the best in the business, and when it's time for him to shine be prepared to see your guests' jaws drop as plays the most captivating melodies.
If you're lucky he may even leave the stage and join you and your guests in the middle of the dancefloor!
If funk is your thing we highly recommend adding a trumpet. There is nothing quite like the sound of a full brass section for that fat, funk sound. and having 2 horns working in combination allows the band to play more of the brass heavy songs such as "Move On Up" by Curtis Mayfield.
For a more tropical edge, why not add some percussion? Bongos and congas are a staple of disco and house music, but percussion is rarely seen on stage these days. So having a live bongo/ conga player is sure to please your guests, and this gives the band a more authentic disco sound and flavour.
For those looking for the ultimate line up, the band can complete their line up with an additional female vocalist. Having 3 vocalists allows the band to create luscious vocal harmonies, as well as perform choreography on stage and really work the dancefloor!
Expect to hear your favourite Funk, Soul, Motown and Disco classics by Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Chic, Earth Wind & Fire, Chaka Khan, Prince and Michael Jackson.
Not only that, but Soul Flight Band bring you right up to date with more recent hits inspired by these old school legends, with Beyonce, Bruno Mars and Pharell Williams and many more..!
For those of you looking for something super cool and off the charts, Soul Flight also perform a number of rare groove, funk, and acid jazz tracks which will keep even the most discerning listener happy!
All of this is presented to you in the unique Soul Flight style with glitz, glam, flair and energy for a spectacular night that you and your guests will never forget!
The Soul Flight Band has performed at many renowned venues in London and beyond including Blenheim Palace, Emirates Stadium, Madame Tussauds, The London Science Museum, Bush Hall, The Savoy, The Ritz, The Hilton, as well as 100's of smaller wedding venues across the country.
The most popular line up is the 7pc, which is the smallest line up featuring the perfect combination of male & female vocals, guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and saxophone.
Each of the singers are at the top of their game and know exactly how to get your guests off their seats and onto the dance floor!
Having a male and female vocalist creates a great dynamic on stage, and allows the band to perform the widest variety of genres.
If live horns are important to you, we highly recommend adding the trumpet.
There is nothing quite like the sound of a live horn section for that full, fat, funk sound, and having 2 horns working in combination allows the band to play more of the brass-heavy numbers where more than one brass member is essential.
For a more tropical edge, why not add some percussion? Bongos and congas are a staple of disco and house music, but percussion is rarely seen on stage these days.
So having a live bongo/conga player is sure to please your guests, and this gives the band a more authentic disco sound and flavour.
For those looking for the ultimate line up, the band can complete their line up with an additional female vocalist.
Having 3 vocalists allows the band to create luscious vocal harmonies, as well as perform choreography on stage and really work the dance floor!
You can also choose extra acoustic performances as a duo or trio in addition to the full band if required.
This is a very popular option during the wedding ceremony, drinks reception, or dinner before the party really begins!
Included within the price is a professional sound system suitable for up to 200 people, plus stage lighting and dancefloor lighting. The Soul Flight Band can also cater for much larger events - prices available on request.
Background music or party music can be provided between sets, and iPod connection is available if you wish to make your own playlist.
The band also boasts a range of optional extras such as wireless microphone for speeches, CD decks & turntables if you are hiring a DJ, starcloth backdrop and coloured uplighting around the room, all at preferential rates for customers who book Soul Flight.

Wedding band trends for 2023 and 2024
The 2023 and 2024 wedding seasons are set to be the busiest ever experienced by wedding suppliers, especially high-quality cover bands in the UK.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020, thousands of weddings in the UK and across the world have been postponed.
If you're just starting out, what does this mean for your own wedding planning?
Well, it's likely that if you're planning to host your wedding on a Saturday during the summer months, then you can expect many of the most popular and in-demand bands, musicians and other suppliers to be fully booked.
Even in normal years, many bands get booked up one or two years in advance, but with the added pressure from thousands of re-scheduled weddings and events, the next couple of years are unprecedentedly busy. Wedding band hire has never been a more urgent priority in your planning timeline.
But that doesn't mean you need to worry. We work with hundreds of local bands across the UK who still have availability. If you want to increase the range of bands you're able to consider for your wedding, you might want to book a mid-week wedding, as these tend to be far less popular than Saturday weddings.
Following the impact of COVID-19 on the events industry, many musicians have had to take on 'regular' weekday jobs, which does mean that some bands can't always commit to mid-week weddings; but generally there will be far more wedding bands available for you if you choose a wedding on a Wednesday rather than a Saturday.
Another trend we've noticed since COVID-19 is that bands are far less able to negotiate prices or offer discounts. At FixTheMusic, we think this is understandable – and fair. Musicians have been out of work since March 2020, and they need to work as hard as possible to recoup the huge financial losses they have suffered.
Combined with the increased level of demand for their services, this all means that many bands simply don't feel the need to discount their prices like they might have done in previous years, even for mid-week weddings.
With many couples still concerned about restrictions on the number of guests permitted at their wedding reception, we're finding that smaller band line-ups are becoming an increasingly popular choice, especially at micro weddings.
Larger showbands with full horn sections (sax, trumpet, trombone) and multiple male & female singers are still as popular as ever, but we're finding more and more couples opting for last minute weddings this year and planning to invite only 30 or so guests.
For these smaller weddings, it might be appropriate to hire an acoustic duo or 3-piece wedding band.
