Mumford and Sons Style Wedding & Party Bands

Mumford and sons / festival style wedding bands have been around for a while now. It was a craze started by our very own house band Mister Kanish and has quickly taken the wedding scene by storm. Some play modern music with a folky twang to get your guests up and dancing whilst others play old style blue grass perfect for relaxing at a country themed party or wedding. Instruments can include double bass, banjo, mandolin, violin and acoustic guitars. A warm vintage sound with upbeat vibe can fit amazingly well at a festival themed wedding in a barn on farm or a marquee in a family garden. Check out our amazing acts below. We also have some fully acoustic wandering options that work great for venues with severe sound restrictions. Also for festival wedding inspiration check out our blog – Ideas for planning a festival wedding.
