Brass Bands in the UK

Recent review: Had 3 piece bad at our Octoberfest party. Created a good atmosphere. 2nd set was very similar to first - could have mixed it up a bit more.

Recent review: Thank you SO much for playing Saturday! You were absolutely fantastic and we all had a great time. Our feet and voices are still sore from the dancing and singing! Thank you!

Recent review: absolutely fantastic, really got the event going. Lovely people and great showmen. thank you

Recent review: King Brasstards got our evening reception off to an immense start. They were a surprise to the rest of the wedding party and the entrance was phenomenal, as was the first dance song we'd requested. There were a couple of songs we hadn't requested, and they missed some that we had, but they were so brilliant that it really didn't matter - everyone was loving it and we had so many compliments on them afterwards too. The only constructive feedback I'd give is that it was quite hard to get a response in the planning and run-up period, but I know the band are incredibly busy and I clearly didn't have anything to worry about as they were total pros on the night. Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Recent review: "The band were brilliant at our staff event, very enthusiastic and friendly. They played a great selection of songs which had everyone singing along. We've had amazing feedback from our staff and would love to book them again."

Recent review: Couldn't have been better! Easy to deal with and a great performance! Very Happy!

Recent review: "If your looking for a brass band, look no further. I can't recommend this group enough. I was let down by a local band 2 days before my wedding on new years eve. After a bit of panicing I came across Positive Brassitude and all my worries were over. In 2 days they had assembled together and learnt a new song. Despite never playing the song before they Absolutley nailed it and it was the talk of the wedding. I can't thank them enough for what they did and their contact and booking was really professional. 10/10"

Recent review: "MBE was hired to provide the music at my small intimate wedding in April 2017, for the ceremony and the cocktail hour. The communications before hand were excellent, we discussed what sort of music we liked, if we had any special songs that we wished to be played and details about the venue. Our special songs were played and the arrangements were beautiful. I left the choice of classical songs to be played to the Ensemble as I have very little knowledge of classical music, again these were beautiful. During the cocktail hour they played a mixture of music styles, including the Muppet theme tune , The Bright Side of Life and Bear Necessities to name but a few, there really was something for everyone. The MBE arrived early at the venue, very professional and very well presented. It wasn't an issue for them to travel 150 miles to the venue. They made our wedding day very special and personal and all of our guests thoroughly enjoyed their music and we received lots of compliments. If I were to have another function that needed music I wouldn't hesitate to contact MBE, our venue would also welcome them back without any hesitation. Thank you MBE for some wonderful memories."

Recent review: We asked Top Brass to play traditional brass band numbers which they did and we were very pleased with their performance. They played a special request for the bride, Lion King. They were a brilliant start to the celebrations!

Recent review: We booked a brass quintet for our wedding two weeks ago, the band played as guests were arriving, during the ceremony and during the drinks reception. The customer service from start to finish was superb, we made some special requests for the ceremony music and the band went out of their way to write the music and rehearse in advance of our event. They were brilliant on the day, the brass band really added to our winter wedding and all of our guests were so complimentary. All band members were extremely professional, we would highly recommend Carlton Brass Band.

Recent review: Brilliant professional great music very smart !

Recent review: Amazing band, really knew how to get the crowd going and made for a really fun event. Would definitely book again.

Recent review: Fantastic! Great music, perfect for our Oktoberfest! Would definately book again and recommend!

Recent review: "You guys were brilliant!! The guests loved you, we loved you, the venue loved you. I still have the Thunderbirds tune in my head! I would highly recommend Ferreira Brass. They are easy to deal with, very professional, excellent musicians and very friendly. One of the best things about our wedding day, thank you."

Recent review: """They were TERRIFIC. Great playing, great programme, great audience rapport, great entertainment. I'd have them back in a heartbeat. "" John Simpson, Dunfermline Arts Guild, 12 March 2017"

Recent review: Thank You guys for the great set you had played for my party on Saturday night. Each of our guests loved it! It was so perfect for the evening and I am so glad that you played. Your performance helped create the perfectly right mood.

Recent review: "Doctor Chocolate were asked to play at the Concorde Club in Southampton for the Halloween Celebrations on 31st October 2015. Doctor Chocolate are based in and around Bristol but travel all over the UK – playing at parties and celebrations wherever there is a need for a fantastic party band! This was a good 3 hours drive there and back but what a lovely reception when the band arrived – the hotel had put out coffees ready for the bands arrival, provided sandwiches, soft drinks and fries during the break and were really helpful and friendly. The crowd started to arrive and band members peaked out to see a lot of them were in ballgowns and suits – not many were arriving in halloween costume – as the band had been asked to wear halloween outfits – we didn’t have a back-up on this occasion (one to remember for future years!). But on a second peak a crowd of guests arrived in full fancy dress and makeup so we knew we would fit right in. As well as the Doctor Chocolate party sets we included Ghostbusters and Thriller for this night – we can also add in other halloween numbers if required. If you have an event coming up and need us to theme it then just ask! Christmas is coming and we have quite a few Christmas songs in our repertoire too!"
