Below The Border are a fabulously talented band who played at our wedding anniversary party. Our guests were not exactly spring chickens but absolutely everyone was dancing to their favourite songs from the 70s until midnight. Friends kept asking us, “Who are they and where did you find them?” Some of the lads had record contracts back in the day and that was apparent as soon as they struck up. Brilliant guitarists and singers. Lovely harmony vocals from Gail. Everything sounded exactly like the original records. And they were such nice polite people. They arrived bang on time, set up their equipment unobtrusively and played two sets of wonderful music. No fuss. Not a single ego in sight. Real Pro’s. Highly recommended! Thanks so much boys. You made our party such a fantastic success and we’ve had so many messages from our friends telling us how much they enjoyed the music and how good you were. “Gobsmacked by your band” was one and loads saying “Fab band!” Photos to follow

We had high expectations of funXion5, as other reviews and demo's were so positive. They were truly amazing, with quality and skills that blew us, and all our guests away. We had many compliments on the band afterwards. Cant recommend funXion5 highly enough. Thanks funXion5!

Jess and the band were fantastic. The music was exactly what we were looking for and really made the party. Lots of great feedback from all our guests. Jess was also very responsive and flexible in designing the right tone and set lists to match what we were looking for. I'd recommend highly.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

Bringing Your Music Festival to Life

Liverpool is renowned for its music scene, and a vintage band can add a unique element to your festival lineup. From classic ‘50s rock to 1960s pop, a vintage band can bring something special to your event, helping it stand out and attract attention.

Milestone Birthday Parties

When it comes to birthdays, why not go the extra mile? Whether you’re planning a ‘60s pop celebration or a Merseybeat-inspired bash, a vintage band can take your birthday party from ordinary to extraordinary, getting everyone to join in the fun.

Choosing the Right Venue for Your Vintage Band

Liverpool is home to a variety of venues that provide the perfect setting for a vintage band. Whether you want a grand historic space or a cool, industrial venue, there’s something in the city that will perfectly complement your band’s performance. Here are some top venue types to consider:

  • Venues with Waterfront Views Nothing beats the stunning atmosphere of a waterfront venue. Liverpool’s waterfront is one of its defining features, and hosting an event in this picturesque setting with a vintage band playing live will create an unforgettable experience. The combination of water views and great music is bound to impress.
  • Historic Event Spaces If you’re aiming for something with a bit of grandeur, consider one of Liverpool’s historic buildings. Whether it’s an old mansion, a grand hall, or a stately home, these venues have the charm and elegance to complement a vintage band. The setting adds an extra layer of sophistication to your event.
  • Industrial-Style Converted Warehouses For a more modern take on vintage, Liverpool’s converted warehouses offer a stylish and spacious venue for your event. The industrial feel, with its exposed brickwork and high ceilings, pairs beautifully with a vintage band’s performance, creating a lively and fun atmosphere.
  • Rock ‘n’ Roll Vibes at Cavern Club-Style Venues Liverpool is home to some legendary music venues, and if you’re looking for something with true rock ‘n’ roll vibes, a Cavern Club-style venue is the perfect choice. The intimate atmosphere of these spaces makes for a more personal experience, where guests can get close to the band and enjoy their live performance up close.
  • Quirky Themed Bars Liverpool’s themed bars offer a fun and laid-back setting for your event, and when you hire a vintage band, the combination can make for a great evening of entertainment. From retro décor to lively music, these venues will help create the ideal atmosphere for your celebration.

Themed Celebrations to Match Your Vintage Band

Liverpool has a rich music culture, especially when it comes to its own heritage. If you’re hiring a vintage band, why not tap into this musical history and choose a theme that celebrates the city’s past? Here are some great theme ideas for your vintage event:

  • The Roaring Gatsby Era Inspired by the glitz and glamour of the 1920s, a Gatsby-themed event is perfect for a vintage band playing big band jazz. Think flapper dresses, tuxedos, and elegant cocktails—this theme screams sophistication and charm.
  • Rock ‘n’ Roll from the 50s The ‘50s were all about rock ‘n’ roll, and if you want your event to have that fun, high-energy vibe, this is the theme for you. From Elvis Presley to Chuck Berry, a vintage band that specialises in ‘50s music will make sure your event is a hit.
  • The Beatles’ Early Years Liverpool’s most famous musical export deserves a spot in any vintage celebration. For a Liverpool-centric event, why not have a vintage band play the early Beatles hits from the ‘60s? It’s a great way to pay homage to the city’s musical heritage and get everyone in the party mood.
  • Merseybeat Style For a truly Liverpool-themed event, hire a vintage band that specialises in Merseybeat music. From The Beatles to Gerry and the Pacemakers, this genre defines the city’s musical history and is perfect for a lively event with a local twist.
  • Pop Hits from the 1960s The ‘60s were a transformative decade for music. From The Beatles to Motown, a vintage band playing iconic pop hits from this era will add a fun and nostalgic vibe to your event. It’s a perfect fit for parties or celebrations that want to bring the spirit of the swinging ‘60s to life.
  • Rockabilly Fun If you’re after something with a bit of a wild edge, why not consider a rockabilly theme? This lively and energetic genre is full of fast tempos, catchy beats, and plenty of dancing, making it perfect for a high-energy event.

What to Expect When Booking a Vintage Band in Liverpool
