Live band or DJ? It’s the age-old question for wedding couples - should I hire a live band or a DJ? On the surface, it’s an open and shut case. If you’re a clubber, you hire a DJ. If you’re a gigger, you hire a live band. Horses for courses, right? DJs are for people who [...]
If you have found the FOUR ON THE FLOOR BAND website, there’s a good chance that you are looking for live wedding entertainment for your big day, birthday party, company event or graduation ball. There's also a good chance that you are pulling out clumps of your hair in exasperation, trying to find that elusive great-sounding [...]
When you provide entertainment for as many gigs as Four on the Floor band, your memory of one wedding reception booking sometimes merges into another – it’s possibly something to do with the fact that all of the gigs we play invariably end with: Our vocalist singing from the middle of the dancefloor Everyone else on [...]
Not Indian summer - indie summer. Who doesn't love a summer wedding? Long, hot days, too much alcohol, uncomfortable clothes...what's not to love?

There are some aesthetically pleasing and well laid out public parks and a sprinkling of almost-stately homes which hint at the citys’ pre-industrial past. Rather more modern but no less impressive, the Ramada Park hotel hosts many wedding receptions each year, and once Rachael [...]
Celtic Manor wedding band hire Celtic Manor…the very name conjures up an ancient stately building, a princely ancestral homeland sitting atop a Welsh mountain. Well, not quite – it’s actually a modern five star luxury hotel spa and golf venue situated in Newport; so the Welsh part is right. It also caters to wedding parties and [...]
A Professional Function Band Like No Other Here’s an interesting fact: though we’re based in the West Midlands, as a professional function band we’re in demand UK wide. Hence, we recently performed at the wedding reception of John and Jennifer in the lovely surroundings of Kettering Park Hotel in leafy Northamptonshire. The bride and groom apparently [...]
Playing A Live Gig At The Capula Awards Night Of all the bookings we have performed, we would have to say that our favourite recent gig was at the amazing Kings’ Hall in Stoke on Trent, playing to a great crowd at the Capula awards night. From the moment we stepped into the venue until the [...]
