Booking A Wedding Band in Manchester
What You Need To Know
Manchester has been a breeding ground for musical innovation, producing iconic bands and musicians that have left an indelible mark on the global music scene. Oasis epitomized Britpop in the '90s, with anthems like "Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back in Anger", cementing their status as one of the UK's greatest rock bands. Joy Division, a post-punk powerhouse, infused Manchester's music scene with haunting melodies and introspective lyrics, influencing countless alternative and indie acts. The Stone Roses, with their self-titled debut, pioneered the Madchester movement, fusing indie rock with dance elements, and The Smiths, fronted by Morrissey, crafted poetic tunes that defined the indie genre. Manchester also birthed the electronic revolution, spearheaded by New Order and their ground-breaking fusion of rock and dance. The Chemical Brothers furthered this legacy, shaping the '90s rave culture. From punk to pop, Manchester's musical legacy has left an enduring impact on the world.
With such a rich history, it's no surprise that many of our Manchester wedding bands take inspiration from their local heroes, with a set list packed full of classic Mancunian hits, delivering the perfect live music entertainment for your big day.
