Philippa L booked The MBB Band for their wedding • July 2025
“The MBB Band played for our wedding this summer and were absolutely brilliant. We had a jazz trio playing during the canapes and then the whole band playing the rest of the evening. They were fantastic- great choice of music and performed brilliantly. They were very organised and stayed in touch throughout the build up to the wedding . Very much recommend them, Philippa and Thomas”

“An absolute world-class band! We booked them for our Wedding at Wyresdale Park, they became the absolute talking point of the whole day. They were all super professional, responsive and friendly. I couldn’t recommend them enough for anyone looking for something a bit different, but lively for their big day.”
The MBB Band brought a real touch of class
University O booked The MBB Band for their event
“The MBB Band brought a real touch of class to the conference dinner for UKES2024. It was like having Frank Sinatra in the room. Everyone I spoke to afterwards thought it was a fabulous piece of ambience. I am only sorry that I could not have had another 100 people there at the event to enjoy the fab. music.”

My husband & I said to each we must ask these guys if we can book them for a private party as our daughter’s 21st was coming up in January 2024 and she wanted a Gatsby themed party! ...”
The icing on the cake of an amazing day!
David W booked The MBB Band for their wedding in Nottinghamshire
“MBB were absolute stars at our wedding reception. They were courteous when we were a few minutes late arriving, played a personalised intro, and 2 sets of amazing music that got the guests dancing and mingling. It was worth every penny, and beats a DJ any day of the week! As professional musicians ourselves it was important to us to fill our day with high-quality music: MBB did not disappoint!”
Really Great Band, highly recommend!
