Reviews
What our Liverpool clients say
Kind words from couples and clients we've played for across Liverpool, from the roaming band at the ceremony to the 9-piece band at night.
"We had the Brass Monkees for our wedding and they were unbelievable! The dancefloor was packed all night. Great music and the roaming band started the day off perfectly!
Chris was also very prompt at replying to emails and very accommodating. Amazing!"
"We booked Brass Monkees for our daughter’s wedding in Liverpool. Wow-this band is phenomenal! I had seen them play a festival & they blew me away and knew they would be perfect for the evening reception/party. Each and every guest, 250 people, commented on how superb the band was!
Brass Monkees is made up of nine exceptional musicians who are not only highly accomplished but also bring a passion and energy to every note they play. They came together and delivered a performance that was nothing short of dazzling.
A special shoutout to Chris, one of the amazing saxophonists, who was a huge help throughout the booking process and in the lead-up to the wedding. And of course, Lauren—her voice is completely magnificent! But honestly, it feels unfair to highlight just these two when every single member of the band was outstanding. They were all integral to creating an unforgettable experience.
If you want a show-stopping performance that will have the dance floor jumping all night long, there is no better band than Brass Monkees. We’re already looking for another occasion so we can book them again. Thank you all for an incredible performance that made our daughter & son in law’s wedding even more special!"
Absolutely amazing band! They were professional from start to finish and completely made our wedding party. Chris was fantastic and kept in regular communication with us from the moment we booked right up until the night of our wedding, which gave us complete confidence that everything was taken care of.
On the night, they were incredible! They kept the dance floor full all night and had everyone up dancing, singing and having the best time. They were so much fun and created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration.
So many of our guests commented on how fantastic they were, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better band to play at such a special occasion.
We can’t recommend them highly enough — if you’re looking for an amazing band for your wedding or party, look no further! 🎶❤️

WHY IS A LIVERPOOL ROAMING BAND DIFFERENT TO AN ACOUSTIC BAND?
Four horns that come to you
Liverpool knows its live music, and guests can tell the difference the second four horns appear beside them. An acoustic act gives you a lovely backdrop; a roaming band gives you a moment. We weave between tables and groups, catch people mid-conversation and turn a quiet drink into a singalong.
There's nothing to plug in and nothing to set up, so the music can follow the day. One minute we're on a hotel terrace overlooking the Mersey, the next we're in a Wirral courtyard or leading everyone across the road to the reception.
WHEN TO BOOK A ROAMING BAND IN LIVERPOOL
The moments that suit roaming brass
For weddings, couples usually want us for the gap between the ceremony and the meal, the part of the day that can drag without something happening. We also strike up for the confetti exit, march the wedding party from church or register office to the venue, and play guests through to their seats.
Outside of weddings, Liverpool events book us to greet guests at the door, liven up a corporate drinks or awards night, add a bit of noise to a birthday or anniversary, or get a crowd going at a festival, street party or sporting day.
HOW A ROAMING SET WORKS ON THE DAY
Short, punchy and flexible
Playing on the move is full on, so we work in bursts of around 25 to 30 minutes rather than one long set. That keeps every number sounding big and gives you the freedom to spread us through the day, say, a set as you walk out of the ceremony and another while the photos are being taken.
Send us your running order and we'll work out where the brass will have the most impact. Booking our 9-piece wedding band in Liverpool for the evening as well? We'll plan the daytime and the night together, so it all runs smoothly.
WHAT A ROAMING BAND PLAYS
Songs everyone knows, played loud
Think big choruses that work on horns: Motown and soul favourites, funk grooves and chart and indie hits that guests recognise from the first few notes. Every one gets a Brass Monkees arrangement, so it sounds fresh even when the song is a classic.
Have a song that means something to you both? Mention it when you get in touch and we'll let you know if we can work it in. Browse the song list to get a feel for what we play.
