BRASS MONKEES

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!

Honestly wow. Super energy; everyone hasn’t stopped speaking about how fantastic you all were. So much so that another friend has booked them for her wedding next year!!!

Thank you guys again – brass 3-piece in the afternoon followed by a full showdown later was absolutely epic. You made our day so so special.

If I could give you more stars I would!!!

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! 🎶❤️

We had the brass monkees at our day on 24/07/2026 at Shottle Hall Belper.
Absolutely electric atmosphere from them what a brilliant night of music a number of our guest say that your music was totally superb. The Dance floor was packed from being to end and all of our guests thought they were the best wedding band they’d ever heard, as did we!! Fantastic group that made it an unforgettable night!
Thanks again,
Gavin and Heather

We hired Brass Monkees for our company’s anniversary celebrations, they were energetic and excellent !!

Genuinely the best wedding band ever, and we weren’t the only ones saying that; all our guests were too. Kept the party going and the dance floor full all evening. An incredible ensemble, beautiful voices and amazing vibes! Book them before somebody else does!

BRASS MONKEES! These guys are brilliant. 6th June, wedding in a marquee, half way up a Welsh mountain! Found the venue (not a given!), on time, set-up with no fuss/drama. Just got on with it. And then the ‘play’, the reading of the room – absolutely brilliant and spot on – the dance floor was pumping with wedding day joy and happiness from first dance to evening’s end. Great vocals, vibrant horn section, key board, drums – just brilliant. And the in-between D.J.ing was really good too – the DJ I’d swear is now bi-lingual! I can’t recommend them enough! Nailed on atmosphere and vibe! Hire them!

Cant speak more highly of this incredibly talented band. Before our wedding we communicated often and Chris was always on hand to help with any questions. Then on the night these guys TURNED UP! Amazing energy and got the people dancing. Cant wait to see them again in manchester soon. If youre looking for a band that plays great songs, is hassle free and brings the energy then look no further.
Thanks Chris and the Brass Monkees

WOW I cannot say enough how amazing the Brass Monkees are. They played at our wedding and all the guests said they were fantastic. The energy and the atmosphere they bring is all you could ask for and the made the run up very effortless.

The Brass Monkees are one of the best bands, you will not regret booking them for any event. We recently booked them for our wedding in North Wales, and they were absolutely amazing. All our guests kept on asking us where did you find your band. From the moment you make contact with them, they are super helpful and friendly. We let the band use their expertise to judge what to play during the evening, and they nailed it!

We also booked Lauren and Ben (Singer and Guitarist) for live music to be played pre and after ceremony, again absolutely perfect. Again we left it to their expertise to know what to play and they set the tone perfectly.

5 stars isn’t enough in my eyes. If you are considering booking them, do not hesitate. go for it, you won’t regret it.

About 4 years ago, my now husband and I walked passed a pub in Knutsford and could hear an amazing live band playing inside. They drew us in. As we watched them, we both said “they’re going to play our wedding” and we weren’t even engaged! Fast forward to planning the big day and Brass Monkees were our one non-negotiable. We booked them before we had even secured a venue. Our entire wedding on 27th December was booked around their availability. And oh my wow was this the best decision ever! They were phenomenal and we’re so happy they played our wedding party. Every guest commented “best band we’ve ever seen”. They really brought the party with extra special moments and sprinkles of magic on top of their unbelievable talent and kindness. Such lovely people throughout the whole process and throughout the evening. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding party a night to remember. We will never forget it. 🎺🎷🎹🎸🥁🎤🤩
Sending love, and so much gratitude to you all.

I saw the Brass Monkees about 4/5 years ago and they were good then, and my wife booked them for a surprise birthday party for my 70th last week and they were great. She booked the full 9 piece band and the sax, trombone and trumpet made it very professional. Everyone commented on how good the band were, and the music they played kept lots of people on the dance floor. It made it a night to remember 👍

Brass Monkee’s recently performed at our 25th anniversary party. They were absolutely sensational! I cannot recommend them enough. In the run up to the event they were super helpful, organised and made the whole process incredibly easy. The quality of the music was amazing, I’ve never seen so many people on their feet so quickly and people were up dancing all night. Every one of our guests commented on how good they were and many said it’s the best band they’ve seen at an event.

Thanks for making a special event even more special.

Seriously, if you are thinking of booking these guys for your event – stop thinking about it and just do it!

We booked Brass Monkees for our daughter’s wedding. 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!

First time experiencing the Brass Monkees. I’ve got to say they were the best band I have ever had the pleasure of seeing and hearing. It was literally music to my ears! So if you are planning your wedding or any sort of celebration, then the Brass Monkees is an absolute must! Don’t hesitate even for a second…..just get em booked! You’ll not regret it!

Hands down the best wedding band we’ve ever seen/heard. They put their heart and soil into 2 hours of non stop classics. The whole band look like they love what they do and helped create such a buzz and warm atmosphere where no one felt they could leave the dancefloor in case they missed a hit. Incredible sound, awesome personality and Chris was so easy to work with in the build up to the wedding. Cannot thank you all enough, everyone we speak to has been waxing lyrical about you since the wedding a month ago! Will be keeping an eye out for your local gigs.

Brass Monkee’s were absolutely amazing and I would highly highly recommend them as a wedding band. In the lead up to the wedding the communication was excellent and they were incredible on the night. We have had so many compliments on how good they were.

The Brass Monkees played at our wedding – they were absolutely AMAZING!! Everyone was dancing all night and all the guests commented on how great the band were. A real mix of music that everyone knew – definitely recommend! Chris was very quick at responding leading up to the wedding. Thanks again for making our wedding so special 🙂

Chris and the team were absolutely incredible. We hired them for our wedding in South Wales and they trekked all the way down from up north! Chris was very communicative throughout the booking process and really helped to tailor the setlist to something that was right for our wedding. On the day, the whole gang set up without any issue. I can’t speak highly enough of the band themselves, the dance floor was full all night and it was really special. The team also helped us in a bit of a crisis when we couldn’t figure out how to turn our own PA system back on after their set, they were so quick and knowledgable! Can never thank them enough, HIGHLY recommend 💕

I got married recently and got so lucky that I came across brass monkees! I came to them with an idea which they helped bring to life and did it so seamlessly! They hid at the back of church and popped out for the instrumental of ‘All you need is love’ – proper Love Actually style! They then walked us from church to our venue and played the whole way. It was like a big procession through the streets of Manchester! I was in contact with Chris to organise the surprise and all the other logistics during the build up to the wedding and he was so helpful. Chris and the band were utterly brilliant. All my guests have said that the highlight of the wedding was the walk with the brass band. They played loads of upbeat tunes and barely stopped for breath along the way. They brought so much joy to our wedding and we are so grateful. I would absolutely choose them again without a doubt. Thank you again so much for being such a fabulous part of our day!

Great band! Really helpful from start to finish and the quality of music was absolutely fantastic!

Absolutely fantastic band! Booked for our wedding (5th October) and they were just amazing. From communication before the wedding, to an amazing performance on the night. Their set up is great, and they really did make the wedding extra special. 10/10 couldn’t recommend them enough!

Brass Monkees were amazing!! We hired them for our Wedding day and it was one of our favourite parts of our wedding.
They led the whole wedding party down to the evening section and put on the best performance.
People were on the dance floor all night and couldn’t stop telling us how fun and great they were.

If you want a band with loads of energy they are for you!

Also the communication running up to the wedding was so easy and quick. We felt really supported.

Can’t recommend enough!!

Amazing performance, professional service and all round lovely bunch of people definitely would use again 👍🏻

Brilliant! Look no further if you are after a band to play at your wedding. Brass Monkees were superb and filled the dancefloor throughout the whole of our wedding night. We had so many comments both during and after the day about how good the band were, they really were excellent and bought a huge amount of energy to the room. Brass Monkees were also very easy to deal with during the booking process and the build up to the wedding. Highly recommended!

I had Brass Monkees for my 60th Birthday in Knutsford at the courthouse. They were absolutely amazing. They got everyone up on the dance floor with absolutely no effort, because they are so good. They play all kinds of music. I was inundated with messages after my party saying it was one of the best parties they have been to. That was nothing to do with me. All down to the Brass Monkees.

Played our wedding on 26th Aug 23 – absolutely brilliant! Such a professional set up, full of fun & sympathetic to the demands of organising a wedding. 100% recommend!!! Thank you SO much Brass Monkees!

Big Thanks to the Brass Monkees ‘Kate and Sam’ and all guests at the Ashley Family Wedding have had an amazing weekend of Wedding celebrations! ‘The Brass Monkees’ YOU were absolutely BRILLIANT!! You certainly made our Night and Wedding Party very special ❤…. everyone absolutely loved your gig … perfect sounds, perfect songs, very professional, we rocked and had such good fun! Looking forward to seeing you perform again soon, my dancing shoes are at the ready! BIG THANKS … you smashed it for us!! 💃🕺

The Brass Monkees played at our tipi wedding reception, and they were absolutely incredible!! The dance floor was full the whole night! They are all brilliant and talented musicians, and we couldn’t have asked for a better band. Totally magical!
I would highly recommended these guys!!

Couldn’t thank the Brass Monkees enough for playing at my Daughter’s wedding (Emily & Nathan Sant). All the guests commented on how fantastic they were and the atmosphere they created was incredible, especially when the trumpet & saxophone joined the dance floor! The evening do would not have been the same without then and we can’t recommend them enough. Thanks again to Chris, Steve and all the Brass Monkees 🎺🎸🎙🎵🎷

The best band around! All of our wedding guests loved them especially their surprise trumpet part at the end! Such a pleasure to work with and nothing was too much hassle! Fantastic vibe on stage and really got the crowd going. I can not recommend Brass Monkees enough!

The Brass Monkees played at our wedding recently and were absolutely amazing! Our dancefloor was packed and our guests loved them. The encore was a brilliant moment with the brass section of the band taking to the dancefloor. We would highly recommend them and we are looking forward to seeing them play again soon. Thanks for making our big day so special! xxx

What an amazing band that are full of life and vigour that added a vibrant atmosphere to our wedding. From the moment they started setting up you could see the curiosity in the faces of our guests, not knowing what to expect, so many faces and brass instruments. The sound check had people rubbernecked. Then it started and all of a sudden people rose to their feet and galloped to the dance floor. Those that remained seated were left bouncing in their chairs, unable to stop themselves joining in.

What more can I possibly say, that Brass Monkees took us through a journey in music from soul to funk and RnB and then finished the night with one of my favourite tracks, a conga that really was one step beyond. A perfect end to a perfect wedding day and night.

Thank you Brass Monkees, if I could I’d hire you again and again. Until then we will be looking out for other gigs of yours, that’s for sure.

A very happy

Mr & Mrs Molyneux

Brass Monkees played at our Summer Party on Saturday after coming highly recommended to us and they certainly didn’t disappoint! The band were full of energy and the dance floor was buzzing all evening. We’ve had so many great comments from everyone, they really helped to make the party a big success. A great combination of songs and a really great touch coming out into the crowd, standing on chairs to play their instruments, fabulous!

What an amazing band! Brass Monkees played at our wedding recently and definitely made it a night to remember!
The band are all very talented, great fun and certainly know how the get the crowd going!
A great range of songs, sure to make you dance!
The band don’t just stay on their stage/performance area. They come out into guests and play amongst the crowd.
Absolutely loved the moment 3 of them came and played their instruments around me and my husband then went behind the bar.
So many of our guests commented how amazing Brass Monkees are and how they really did make the wedding!
Highly recommended for any event!

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for the amazing performance last night at our annual cadet dining in event. You were fantastic and we received amazing feedback from parents and cadets alike.

I booked Brass Monkees for our New Years Eve event and I was Absolutely made up with their performance. From beginning to end they were professional and easy to deal with. Their performance was phenomenal and we had so many people calling, emailing and telling us how fantastic they were and how they had made New Year’s Eve one to remember! I could not recommend them enough. Absolute pleasure to work with- thank you Brass Monkees and keep on doing what you do!

Thank you so much for supporting our Midnight Walk 2018, what a fantastic night it was!

On behalf of Nightingale House Hospice I would like to thank you for your support and the wonderful live set you played at our Midnight Walk, it was loved by everyone who was there and most definitely got the crowd in the party mood, Well Done and Thank you!

A massive thumbs up to the Brassmonkees you were brilliant at Becky and Adams wedding. Everyone was so impressed with your performance. Well done guys …. a special thank you to Chris for making such a big effort to get back to perform…. it was very much appreciated. X

The band played at our wedding on Saturday 3rd June, which was their first gig and they were AWESOME!! We can not thank them enough for the energy they bought to the party. They really got the crowd going with their moves and interaction with the guest’s whilst performing , there wasn’t an empty space on the dance floor. We knew their performance was going to be great but had no idea it was going to be as good as that, it was another level! We’ve had so many great comment’s from our guest. I really couldn’t recommend them enough xxx

An excellent band with a professional lineup and a superb show.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you for making our silver wedding anniversary party so special last Saturday.

Everyone remarked on how good a party it was and I think that was a large part down to you. The atmosphere was really good and people were enjoying themselves. I couldn’t have asked for anything more!!

Exceptional! Dancing in a room of 400 people where everyone was bouncing was an experience I will never forget! Wow these guys know how to get the party started!!

Thankyou so much for last night you were amazing xx

Fantastic gig tonight at the blue cap, well worth the trip from the wilds of Wiltshire and a real pleasure to meet the band.

Thanks to the Brass Monkees for a great night!!
