Funk City Band 

Our band has a huge set list of 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and current hits that will get your dance floor packed. We play around 10 or so 50th parties every year. They are so much fun! In your 20’s everybody dances but they are all looking at their phones. In your 30-40’s some people are sometimes too tired because of jobs and young children…but 50! WOW. Those guys can ROCK.

We can offer a massive PA system and lots of lights and can talk through every aspect of your event beforehand to make sure it’s exactly what you want. Even learning any of your favourite songs. 

Our band is based in between Bristol and Bath but we travel all over the UK.
