The South of England is home to Wimbledon, scones, and Stonehenge. The South is also home to some of the biggest bands in history. The likes of Rolling Stones, The Clash, Muse and The Jam, were born and raised down South. My point being the South is arguably the best place to find high-energy bands that guarantee to put on a performance of a lifetime.
Warble Entertainment provide their customers with some of the best entertainment available to book down South. Our musicians can perform in all the major Southern counties, including Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Hampshire, Sussex, Kent, Berkshire, Surrey, London, Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk. So, without further ado, let me introduce you to the bands!

Absolutely amazing! We were the last of our friends to get married so I’ve been to six weddings in the past three years and I think everyone agreed that The Jacks were the best band at any of them! Lovely guys and what a show they put on! They played our first dance song brilliantly and then kept the dance floor full the whole night from then on. If you’re looking for an amazing band, you will definitely not regret choosing The Jacks!
South of England
The South of England consists of the following counties: Buckinghamshire, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Kent, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Surrey and London. Not only home to the capital, but also home to some of the best rock and pop cover bands down south, bands available to hire for all manner of live function events! Let me introduce you to a few…
Sussex – The Indie Killers

Finally, with over 10 years’ work that has gone into creating and shaping their crazy performance, you will agree that it was worth every second!
Surrey – Gentlemen Of The Road
Gentlemen of the Road is quite a fitting name for a band. Especially for these guys. The five young gentlemen that make up the band spend most of their time travelling all over the country providing a perfect mix of songs for any party.
They have mixed the best of both worlds and have incorporated a fun and energetic acoustic ‘Mumford & Sons’ style set with a full-on party set. What more could you want? For Gentlemen of the Road, it’s a full dancefloor and these lads know exactly how to achieve that.

The singers, saxophonists and guitarists will play among the audience, enticing them to join conga lines and engage crowds like something never seen before. In addition, having formed in 2008 from prestigious musical establishments in London, they have grouped some of the country’s finest musicians! You don’t want to miss a live performance from Soulidify!
Anna Bown★★★★★Wedding, Sussex Read More
Soulidify played at our wedding and they were absolutely fantastic! We spent so long trying to find the perfect band and they exceeded our expectations – the dance floor was packed all night and it felt like such a great party. We especially loved the way they interacted with the crowd throughout the night! They were the highlight of our day and people are still commenting on how great they were. Don’t hesitate to book these guys – we went for the 8-piece band and it’s definitely worth having both a male and female singer, plus the sax and trumpet!
