With a variety of different band line-ups to choose from, a track record spanning over 12 years and a repertoire of over 300 songs from the 1950’s to present day chart hits, you can be sure that the Will Blake Six Piece band will provide you and your guests with a show you will never forget.
The Will Blake Band provide two 60-minute sets with a short break in the middle, during which you will have the opportunity to put your own music through our PA system or simply leave us to put on a party playlist. After the show, we provide a complimentary 60-minute disco to round off the evening with the option of extending the service for an hourly rate. For an extra special touch, they will learn your personal first dance number for no additional cost.
All the band’s packages include a full tiered stage which can be assembled in 20 minutes, a professional lighting rig and a PA system large enough for events of 500 people. In additional to everything else, you can be sure to see our Red Grand Piano at every gig.

We need two mains power sockets and in an ideal world, a 6m by 3m space to set up, however we are very good at adapting to venue sizes and will work with you to make sure that we know what to expect and bring appropriate equipment.
Earliest access to the stage area, location of nearest parking to stage and contact number for the venue manager on the day of your event.
Yes, and a full stage! Our set up is second to none, with a full professional lighting rig, a stage with different levels and a large Mackie PA system complete with two 18 inch subwoofers.
Yes absolutely. We include a 60 minute spotify disco service after the band have finished performing, during which time we will pack down our backline equipment to enable a swift exit at the end of the evening, which venues love us for.
YES!!!
Impossible to choose, however we always enjoy putting on our own ticketed events as well as performing at hundreds of functions and weddings across the UK. Every gig is special in it's own way. The best shows are ones where the band are looked after before, during and after the performance by friendly staff and clients. Some of our best shows are the ones where the clients and guests go the extra mile to have a good time. We've had couples dancing on tables and even the bar before now as well as clients joining us on stage (organised prior to the event) to perform songs for their friends and family which always goes down a storm.
We enjoy all our gigs, but the best ones tend to be weddings and parties where the guests really let their hair down and fill the dancefloor from start to finish. This happens at virtually all our shows, but particularly at weddings with a free bar!
I started the band when I was 17 (in 2009) and it has gone from strength to strength over the years with constant re-investment into better equipment, better stage outfits and creating an extremely polished performance that keeps people on the dancefloor from start to finish. When you book the Will Blake Band, you can be sure of an experienced group of musicians that take every performance extremely seriously and make creating the perfect live music experience for you our top priority.
We perform everything from Queen, Jackson Five and Abba to Bruno Mars, Beyonce, Jess Glynne, Dua Lipa and more. Our routes as a band are in Rock n Roll piano, which is how the band started, but these days our genre is simply 'dancefloor fillers'.
We provide two 60 minute sets of live music and include one hour of Spotify disco at the end of the night. We can arrive as early as required (within reason) and can provide recorded music through our PA system during our break and prior to the performance.
If ample cover is provided to protect from rain or sun burn, then yes absolutely.
Yes we are more than happy to adapt our setlist to sui our client's tastes and preferences, however we do encourage everyone to let us stick to our tried and tested setlist as much as possible in order to keep the dancefloor full. We can learn any song you like for the first dance number at weddings and are happy to take three or four other requests in advance of the show if needed.
“Will and the band were absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. Tom and I hosted our reception in a tipi pitched at our local cricket club in our small village. We had endless messages of thanks for the live concert from neighbours and requests for Wills details for future events which speaks such volumes to the bands talent.
We didn’t even notice them starting to set up until we had a microphone hiccup just before the speeches, Will was on hand in a flash and jumped to the rescue giving us a microphone and a speaker from his kit.
They played all our favourite songs and weren’t put off by the alarming amount of ABBA in the playlist. One of the highlights of the night was Will and Clark coming out onto the dance floor and playing amongst the crowd – just sensational! We finished the night with the most epic encore of Stacey’s Mum with the words altered to fit “Gemma’s Mum” and “Tom’s Mum” which went down an absolute storm!
