The Doubles came about as a result of a genuine desire to provide something unique; a cover band of the highest quality, actively committed to capturing & recreating the authentic sound & feel of classic & modern funk, soul, and rock 'n' roll from the world's leading artists. The band’s vision was to achieve this, not only without the use of sequencers, backing tracks or sheet music, but also with a line-up of just 5 members, making them notably more affordable to clients over comparable bands covering similar material. 

Over 30 auditions were held to seek out only the Midland's premiere professional soul musicians and singers - the resulting line-up features five guys all aged under 35, but with a combined total of over 80 years musical experience! The band's repertoire of well-known songs is guaranteed to get any crowd singing & dancing, and because of the eclectic mix of catchy, funky, soulful & rockin' tunes from across the past five decades, there's bound to be something for everyone!
 
The band provides a full 1600w PA system, and a lighting rig with moving scanners, to make sure your night goes off with a bang! The Doubles can also provide a variety of music from an iPod between sets, or you are welcome to bring your own to play through their PA. As Musicians Union members, the band are fully insured for public liability cover, and all equipment is PAT tested in line with current regulations.

Karen and James, Wedding, Priest House Hotel, Derbyshire
Hi Tracey, We are more than happy to give you feedback. We had the most fantastic wedding day and The Doubles topped it off. They exceeded our expectations. All of our guests were raving about them and couldn't get off the dance floor. The songs they played appealed to all of our guests - young and old! The lead singer was amazing and has a fantastic vocal. We were all in awe of him. The whole band are extremely talented and professional and such lovely polite, friendly guys. I would also like to thank you for the professional service you provided. Every time I called, you were more than helpful and very prompt and professional. I would definitely do business with Warble again and would recommend your service to friends should the opportunity arise. Please pass on my thanks to the guys. I can't tell you how much they added to our wedding. We hope to be able to see them at a future gig again. Thanks again.

Mr & Mrs Limbourne
Hi Steve just to say a massive thankyou to you and the rest of The Doubles. Your effort and professionalism was just what we required for our wedding. All our guests have commented on how good the band was. Both the choice of music and your style were perfect. We look forward to seeing you at a function in the future and we will certainly be recommending you to our friends.

The band was fantastic! It was the icing on the cake for a beautiful wedding. The music was excellent, varied and lively! Despite the stunning weather, as soon as the band kicked off our guests were straight inside! Really dancey and appealing to the varied ages of our party. You were all very helpful from start to finish, many thanks for helping us celebrate our wedding and we will definitely book you when we next get married!!!!

Anne-marie Hingley
I have had nothing but great feedback from my guests about your band, your song list is excellent and me and my husband are thinking about having a divorce so we can get married again and have you playing on the beach in the Seychelles, hee hee. Thanks for adding a special touch to our big day. You were worth every penny, and such polite talented lads! Good luck and hope to hire you again in the future.

Becky Tildesley
