Folly Farm Wedding Band— Live Music That Brings It All Together

There’s something magical about Folly Farm. The rolling hills, the sweeping views of the Chew Valley, and that rustic, warm charm that just wraps you up the moment you step inside. And when the sun starts to dip behind the trees and guests drift towards the dance floor… that’s where we come in. (check out our videos here)

We’re Funk City Band — a live wedding band in Somerset that’s been lucky enough to perform at Folly Farm more than once, and every single time it’s pure magic. The acoustics? Gorgeous. The vibe? Off the charts. The people? Always up for a party. Whether you’re planning a laid-back festival-style wedding or a classy, black-tie celebration, this venue just works for everything. We LOVE it there! 

Why Folly Farm Works So Well With Live Music

The barn itself feels made for it. High ceilings. Wooden beams. That perfect kind of space where the sound fills the room without overwhelming it. You can go for our 3-piece line-up for a more stripped-back, acoustic feel during dinner… our amazing 4 piece band that kicks ass or bring in the full 7-piece band with horns to really let it rip when the evening kicks off. You choose your level of how much you want to ‘flex’ on your friends and family. 

We always bring our wireless mics and instruments too — because let’s be honest, it’s not a proper Funk City night unless we’re out there on the dance floor with your guests, singing along and maybe (definitely) stealing a canapé or two mid-song.

Your Folly Farm Wedding Soundtrack

We’ve played everything from Motown and soul classics to modern pop bangers and indie anthems — all tailored to the crowd on the night. You can see our set list here.  Want your first dance to turn into an instant singalong? Done. Fancy a few throwback 00s hits to get your mates jumping? Easy. We’ll make sure the music fits your crowd and your vibe, not just a standard playlist. It MUST be fun. 

If you’re still in the planning stages, we recommend visiting Folly Farm in the late afternoon — that’s when you really get a feel for the light, the sound, and how that dance floor is going to come alive. And when it does, we’ll be ready to make it unforgettable.

Ready to Chat?
If you’re having a party you probably want a brilliant band that actually gets the vibe and gets people dancing. This is really important to us. If that sounds good— get in touch. We’d love to be the FUN part of your night. If you have a wedding or event we are local to Bath, Wiltshire, Bristol, Somerset and Reading too although we travel absolutely everywhere. *Except the moon*. When people dance too much in zero gravity they have a tendency to float off which can cause problems with our insurance.
