The band also offers a late finish service, early arrival, acoustic duo and manned DJ service as optional extras. Please ask us for pricing.
The Hawks have years of industry experience and regularly perform up and down the country at weddings, private parties and corporate events.
We have multiple equipment setups that include a “silent stage” or lower volume setup for sound restricted venues (including an electric drum kit with no guitar/bass amps).
This is a fantastic option for venues where a full acoustic drum kit would be a problem.

Note regarding sound limiters and zone array systems:
Please be aware that although we will try and accommodate with volume levels as best we can, in most circumstances we will not plug into any sound limiting devices unless a prior written agreement has been made between us and the venue.
Please check with your venue / host before finalising your booking as we will not plug into any external third party / "zone array" sound systems.
"Absolutely brilliant. Our guests said they were great vocalists as well as getting the whole dance floor going. Danced all night. Easy to work with as well."
"The Hawks were fantastic, we're so glad we found them. They were so friendly to work with right from the start. During their set they had the whole wedding party dancing and we had so many comments about how great they were. We would highly recommend them to anyone getting married and looking for a wedding band."
"Where shall I even begin! You smashed it, so so good! Thank you so much for playing at our wedding, you kept the vibe going and got people dancing. The dance floor always had people on it! All of our questions beforehand were quickly responded to and we truly felt like we were in a safe pair(s) of hands. The energy was great and we would recommend the guys to play anywhere. Thank you!!"

"They performed at my wedding recently. I’m a wedding photographer and I’ve shot over 1000 weddings, but The Hawks... Wow! ...they are non stop with the absolute best tunes, one of the top wedding bands in the country! Would recommend anyone in the South West or beyond to check these guys out. Thanks for a great night lads!"

"Their brilliant repertoire and high quality performance kept us all dancing for hours. They were incredibly interactive during their sets and we received so many compliments about them. We could not recommend them highly enough.."
"Absolutely fantastic band doing a really wide range of covers. The guys themselves were really helpful and friendly and adapted to suit our venue. We hired them for a work Christmas party and they had no problem getting everyone up and dancing from the first song. Would definitely recommend them for any event!"
