Rock Wedding Bands for Hire in the UK

Check out some of the UK's best rock wedding bands – available throughout the UK for weddings and private events...

We've curated the UK's best rock bands and made it easy for you to hire them for your next event – whether that's a wedding, birthday party, charity or corporate event.

What kind of songs do the rock wedding bands cover?

Our rock wedding bands will play all your favourite rock and pop covers from the 60s up until present day. They cover classic bands such as The Rolling Stones, The Kinks and The Beatles, through to Guns ‘n Roses, Bon Jovi, Queen, as well as Green Day, Foo Fighters, Oasis, Blink 182, The Killers and Kings of Leon.

Our rock bands pride themselves on their years of experience, keeping dance floors full by playing tune after tune that your guests will love.

What is the line-up / instrumentation of the rock wedding bands?

Most rock songs tend to be guitar-led – so naturally the majority of our rock bands feature electric guitar as one of the main instruments. They also have one or two singers, as well as bass guitar and drums.

Some of our rock wedding bands can also add a saxophone player to the line-up, perfect for filling out the sound and widening the band's repertoire.

Do the rock wedding bands have male or female singers?

The typical rock band features male vocals – this is usually because most classic rock songs are sung by male lead singers. We also work with numerous female-led rock bands, as well as rock bands with male and female vocals.

Where do the rock wedding bands perform in the UK?

Our rock bands perform at weddings throughout the UK. The majority are based in London, but there are also large collections of amazing professional rock bands elsewhere in the UK – including Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Essex, Bristol and Cardiff.

How long do rock bands perform for at weddings?

Most bands provide 2 hours of live music at weddings. This is normally split into 2 or 3 sets (e.g. 2 x 60 minute sets, or 3 x 40 minute sets). Some bands can perform for longer if required, but this is usually for an additional fee.

In between and after the rock band's live sets, most bands provide a "DJ service", so your entire evening of musical entertainment is covered. You can normally prepare your own playlist on Spotify or an iPod to play through the band's PA system at this point.

How much does it cost to book a rock band for a wedding?

The average price for hiring a rock band in the UK is £1,459. There are some superb professional 3-piece rock bands on FixTheMusic whose prices start at around £800 - £900. 4-piece rock bands usually start at around £1,300 - £1,650 and larger groups increase in price accordingly.

A general rule of thumb is that most rock bands charge between £300 - £400 per musician and the total cost of the band will depend on the number of musicians and singers in the band.
