Rock & Pop Bands for Hire in the UK

Our rock pop bands are based throughout the UK. We can suggest bands that are near to you to cut down on travelling costs. Most of our bands travel throughout the country on a regular basis.

We only represent rock pop bands and musicians who can deliver a polished, professional performance. These are highly trained musicians with experience at delivering exceptional music at events throughout the UK.

Absolutely not! Silver Dog Music has experience in sending bands out to worldwide weddings and events, from European destinations such as France, Spain and Greece to Egypt and Dubai.

The cost to hire one of our rock pop bands can vary considerably but as a rough guide, the average price to hire a band is £2,000 – £3,000. This can increase if you are looking to hire larger, more experienced acts.

We always encourage clients to let us know a rough idea of their budget. This really helps us to focus on finding the right band for your event.

Our rock pop bands are fully self-contained with their own PA systems and often lighting. They usually have the capacity for average sized events (150-200 guests).

Please let us know if you are looking to hire a band for larger events. We can arrange for dedicated sound and lighting engineers to provide the equipment necessary.

Typically bands base their hire fees on 2 hours of live music. Clients can split this into 2 x 60 or 3 x 40 minute sets, according to their preference.

Each rock pop band has their own (often extensive) repertoire. It is not a good idea to choose every song a band plays – there really is a knack to creating a band playlist that encourages audience participation.

However, input into what the bands play is encouraged. We ask you to highlight your favourite songs and let us know any particular songs they should avoid. They can then cater their performance to your music tastes.

We don’t just arrange the booking between you and the band then swiftly leave the process, as many other agents do. We stay with you from the initial booking right through to the event. We communicate with the band on your behalf, liaise with the venue and provide documentation required. We help you with an itinerary for the band and assist you every step of the way.

It is natural to feel overwhelmed looking for a band to hire, especially if you have never done this before. We can help.

Please get in touch with us and let us know just a few details such as event date, type of event, expected amount of guests, budget and we can go from there.
