“Bandit were amazing - they did a great rendition for our first dance song. Really good repertoire for a wedding with a range of ages, and their style suited our wedding perfectly. A lot of the guests commented on how good they thought the band was and their song choices. Thank you for helping our day be amazing!!”
John - Wedding, Askham Hall, Cumbria“Bandit were absolutely fantastic. Such a friendly group of people and brilliant at what they do. We have had so many of our guests say how brilliant the band was! They played a perfect mixture of songs, I don't think the dance floor was ever empty. Thank you to the band and wider team for everything!”
Naomi & David - Wedding, The Saddle Room Restaurant“Brilliant experience with both Bandit and Tailored, we would choose Bandit again any day.”
Maria & Mark - Wedding, Town Head Estate, Cumbria“Band members and staff were very professional throughout, and communication with staff and band was excellent throughout. During the event the band's entertainment value and quality of music was excellent. The fact the people stayed on the dance floor throughout the performance speaks for itself. Both Jill and I were very please with Bandit and the feedback from our guests was entirely positive, thanks a lot for helping to make our event a success!”
Alois - Wedding, Sefton Park Palm House, Liverpool“The perfect function band, we have often recommended this band to bride and grooms and they are never disappointed, top quality!”
Romanby Golf & Country Club - Party“Awesome! The guys played for our wedding reception. They were super professional arrived early set up and sound check done. Played a good range of music to suit all our guests taste. Dancefloor was full all night. Thank you so much!”
Edd Craven- Wedding“What can I say, these guys are amazing. Such talented musicians who got our wedding guests up on their feet and dancing into the early hours.”
Victoria & Tim Burnsby - Wedding“Bandit is one of those bands you are unlikely to forget. They create a toetapping vibe that will have you singing and dancing their songs long after they’ve stopped playing. And while they are playing it is likely you will find yourself unable to sit still. The vocals and harmonies are as rich and rewarding as you will find anywhere and the sheer quality of their musicianship brings audiences to life.”
David Vachell - Party“I booked this band for two family weddings and, on both occasions, they were excellent. The dance floor was full from the moment they started. The band were very accommodating with the playlist suggestions. Both individually and as a band they are fantastic musicians.”
Alison Booth - Wedding
Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features modern day dance floor fillers to your favourite guitar-driven anthems, so there's certainly something for everyone.
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
60 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.
We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.
Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute full band acoustic set as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner.
The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.
If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.

The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £25 pp rider buyout.

George's Favourite Tune
Grow Old With Me – Tom Odell
Hold Back The River – James Bay
I'm Yours – Jason Mraz
Thinking Out Loud – Ed Sheeran
Angels – Robbie Williams:
George absolutely loves playing this song, especially for the last chorus after the wailing guitar solo - the whole crowd getting into a big circle and screaming “and through it... ALL!”
Does Your Mother Know – ABBA:
The audience always gives a cheer to Ally's smokey drive time voice, soaring through this 4 part harmonised ABBA hit – all the while smashing them drums in his usual energized disco flare.
Teenage Dirtbag – Wheatus:
Always the nostalgic hit, Abi loves blasting out this tune and getting the crowd to sing along – especially picking out the best dancer to sing the “I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby...” bit... you've been warned!
My Boy Lollipop – Millie Small:
Harry's squealing falsetto is not one to be missed in this classic original ska track from Jamaica, a bass player with a 4 octave vocal range - you have to see it to believe it.
