About Our Carefully Curated Selection of Wedding Bands for Hire in France

Our cover bands have performed at notable venues, clubs, bars and hotels in France, including Cap d'Antibes Beach Hotel, Les Jardins de Loïs, Le Chardon Mountain Lodges, Terre Blanche, Chateau de Berne, Domaine Les Crayeres, La Bastide de Gordes, Villa Maïa and Château de la Chèvre d’Or.

As they are in such high demand, many of our live bands already have bookings for two or three years in avance at some of the France venues above.

Wedding bands on FixTheMusic have public liability insurance and PAT tested equipment.

Our bands can be booked for corporate events, weddings, private parties, charity events and any other occasion where live music or entertainment is required!

FixTheMusic's cover bands perform in a variety of styles, from funk, blues, soul, acoustic, vintage and rock 'n' roll to R&B, Britpop, electro-swing and indie rock and pop covers.

We also have a range of outstanding roaming bands, a particularly popular genre to add another dimension to your event. We know how hard it can be to find musicians in France for weddings and events, as well as France wedding music generally, which is why we've made it easy to do so with FixTheMusic.

France is one of the most popular countries for destination weddings worldwide...from rustic chateaux in the Dordogne to glamorous hotels on the French Riviera, France draws couples every summer to tie the knot.

FixTheMusic is widely considered to be the best way to find wedding musicians in France for weddings, private events and corporate functions – and we've curated over a hundred of the best wedding bands in this beautiful country, whose music we're proud to showcase!

FixTheMusic is the ultimate French wedding directory for wedding bands, musicians, DJs and live music.

Why people love FixTheMusic
About Our France-Based Bands

France is home to some of Europe's best musicians – from acoustic strolling bands in Cannes and Nice, to pop, soul and funk bands in the south-western corner of France who perform at luxury destination weddings and high-profile corporate events each year.

Despite the wealth of musical talent in France, it isn't always easy for couples and event planners based outside of France to find wedding musicians, bands, and DJs for events there.

We at FixTheMusic have used our local contacts, musical expertise and hours of research and visits, to find the very best bands France has to offer.

So now the days of trawling the internet for available bands for your wedding or party are over – just get in touch with FixTheMusic or browse the bands above, and leave the rest to us!

About FixTheMusic

FixTheMusic is a one-stop shop for booking amazing professional musicians anywhere in the world. And it's completely free for event planners to use.

Founded in 2015 by two brothers who share a passion for great live music, FixTheMusic is a new way to find and book hand-picked bands and musicians for weddings, private parties, corporate events and charity events.

As professional musicians, we realised how difficult it can be for event planners to find and book musicians for their event. So we decided to make it easy.

With FixTheMusic, all you need to do is tell us what you’re looking for and our system does the heavy lifting to get you offers from our carefully curated selection of amazing musicians.

We make it simple and secure for you to connect directly with the best musicians across the globe so you can book live music for any event within minutes.

We're regularly featured on forums and blogs so take a look at FixTheMusic in the press.

FixTheMusic is trusted by the world's most prestigious brands, universities and charities

FixTheMusic's corporate and government clients include Google, Facebook, Amazon, Samsung, Singapore Grand Prix, U.S. Department of State, The Premier League, The Crown Estate, Playstation, Hewlett-Packard, Pepsi, CHANEL, Dior, Bacardi, Sky Arts, L'Oréal, House of Fraser, The Ritz, The Savoy, Johnson & Johnson, Aldi, the British Army, Ministry of Defence, Virgin Sport, WPP, W Series, KPMG, Deloitte, The Economist, G4S, Lavazza, University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, English Heritage, The Courtauld Institute of Art, The King's Fund and numerous luxury hotels and wedding planners around the world 🌍

FixTheMusic is proud to have provided live music for numerous charity fundraising events, including for WWF UK, The Zoological Society of London, The Royal British Legion, Shelter, The Genesis Research Trust and The Pituitary Foundation.

Local professional musicians and bands throughout the world

Beyond the UK, FixTheMusic has already helped clients find amazing local musicians and book UK-based bands for destination weddings and events as far afield as Cyprus, France, Malta, Monaco, Ibiza, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, Croatia, Sweden, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, Iceland, Finland, Poland, Dubai, Oman, Egypt, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Guinea, India, Israel, Singapore and China.

We have become specialists in providing outstanding wedding bands for weddings in France, Italy, Greece (and the Greek islands, especially Santorini), Spain, Portugal and Croatia.

We have ambitious plans to grow internationally over the coming years — we want FixTheMusic to be the first port of call for discovering and booking outstanding local musicians throughout the world; to become Airbnb for live music.

We're proud that we have received consistent 5-star reviews on Facebook and Google.

As well as offering only a carefully curated selection of hand-picked bands and musicians, we strive to provide world-class customer service so you can book with complete confidence. See what our clients say in our verified reviews.

Some Selected Reviews of Our France Wedding Bands...

Review of Funk Mode (soul, funk & pop covers band based in Toulouse) by Daniel Taupin

"Funk Mode was professional, reliable, and most importantly AMAZING musicians. Throughout the evening, guests raved about how much they were enjoying the music. They played a long, high-energy set, and had people dancing the entire time. They were perfect. The string quartet was also fantastic for the cocktail hour and ceremony. Thank you Nicolas and Funk Mode!"


Review of Funky Fresh (7-piece soul & pop wedding band with male vocals) by Aurore Trentedeux

"Great concert last night at B11 club in Bordeaux! The musicians are fantastic, and their Michael Jackon tribute was excellent - they really conjured him up!"


Review of Mixology Sax & DJ (saxophone & DJ duo based in Bordeaux) by Ben Duquemin

"They were really good thanks! Julien was easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding and put on an awesome set with great sound and lighting."


Review of High Jinx (wedding band based in Cannes, France) by Ross Reeves

"High Jinx were absolutely phenomenal. Honestly. We couldn’t have asked for more on our big day. They were extremely accommodating with our timings, driving through the night to ensure they would arrive early enough to get the sound check out the way to ahead of guests arriving. They were also patient with the delay in starting the music (we had slight issues with the timing of the of the meal, which started late), and gave us extra time after their set finished, allowing us to listen to music through their sound system for a long while afterwards. The set itself was fantastic. I was in a band myself for some years so could fully appreciate their excellent equipment and how tight they were musically. They literally had the whole crowd up on their feet throughout the set (we do also have a fantastic and lively crowd of friends and family, so I like to think that it was a perfect symbiotic relationship!). Obviously we were aware that High Jinx were at the more expensive end of the price range, so as you can imagine, we had quietly kept our fingers crossed that they would prove their worth. Expectations were high, basically, and they totally smashed it out the park. Can’t rate them highly enough. Thank you to FixTheMusic also, for being so professional, attentive by email, and enabling us to find them in the first place."


Review of Riviera Roaming Band (acoustic covers band based in Nice, France) by Sophie Hopwood

"I would just like to write a review to let you know how wonderful Riviera Roaming Band are. They performed at our wedding on at Chateau Canet in France. From the moment I booked them, they were helpful and accommodating. On the night of the wedding they were incredible; our dinner ran on a little late so they played around the tables which really got the evening started. All of my guests commented on how well they performed and thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Thank you Riviera Roaming Band for making our wedding perfect."


Review of The Buddies (wedding & party band based in Nice, France) by Jérémie Maissa

"The Buddies played for us during our St. Patrick’s day celebration at our fish & chips restaurant, and what can I say? They were incredible! I highly recommend them, they have a really broad repertoire with many great songs. Above all, they are very good at what they do! In short, we will gladly book them again - thank you!"


Review of The Mad Socks (roaming acoustic covers band based on the French Riviera) by Ivonna Poplanska

"Just wanted to say a huge thank you. We thought you were fantastic! Thank you for singing LOVE with everybody. Everybody enjoyed you guys so much and I hardly left the dance floor. Thank you for including the songs that we love. Really really appreciate it. Hope you had a wonderful time with us and for the rest of the weddings you have this summer. Many thanks from the bottom of our hearts. We were delighted to have you playing at our wedding. Please let the rest of the band know how much we loved you guys!"


Review of The Sabres (professional pop & rock covers band based in Toulouse) by Capucine Madern

"Hi Ed, Sorry for the late reply, we've been super busy these last few weeks. Just wanted to say a huge thank you to the band, they were incredible. Extremely talented team and they really created a great atmosphere. Everyone was impressed with their playing and with their songs, even the vendors asked me for their details. Hope they all had a good time, apologies for some of the delays when they arrived. The waitresses had a lot on their plate. Thanks again for the amazing memories. Capucine and Rob."


Review of The Earthshakers (professional wedding & party band based in Bordeaux, France) by Nathalie Petit

"The Earthshakers a délivré une prestation hors du commun lors de notre anniversaire de mariage pour nos 88 convives! Tout d’abord un grand coup de chapeau à Kevin, très flexible pour la préparation et finalisation de la play list, ensuite, les musiciens eux mêmes sont tellement talentueux qu’ils se sont adaptés avec beaucoup de plaisir aux différentes situations (musique et chant a capella dans la mairie, piano et guitare de fond dans la cour du restaurant pendant l’apéritif). Ils ont joué comme des dieux après avoir TRÈS patiemment attendu la fin du repas! Tout le monde a dansé et ceux qui n’ont pas dansé ont eu l’impression d’assister à un concert ! C’etait TOP! Merci à vous 5 et surtout vous écouter /voir jouer avec un grand sourire aux lèvres était du pur bonheur !"

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Hiring a Party Band or Wedding Band...

FixTheMusic provides bands for thousands of weddings and private events each year across Europe and worldwide. We've put together some Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about hiring a wedding band, a few of which are listed below:

How early should I book a wedding band?

You should aim to book your band as soon as possible. Most of our best wedding bands have bookings at least two years in advance. If your wedding is on a Saturday in May, June, July, August or September, you should really be looking to book at least a year in advance of your date. This is because most weddings fall on a Saturday during summer so our bands receive the most enquiries for these days. That said, there are more and more weddings taking place on Sundays and mid-week (especially on Thursdays and Fridays) so it’s best not to wait too long before locking down your band.

Can I see wedding bands perform live before I book?

Usually it’s not possible to see the band live. Most professional bands perform at private events only, such as weddings and corporate events. It’s not usually possible for the bands to allow potential clients into these venues to watch them perform. It is occasionally possible so there’s no harm in asking. And sometimes wedding bands will do the odd gig at a pub or festival that’s open to the public.

How long do most wedding bands perform for?

Most bands play 2 x 45 minute or 2 x 1 hour live sets at weddings. Some bands will play for longer than this. The bands will usually tell you how long their sets are when they provide you with their quote.

What happens between and after the wedding band's live sets?

Most bands provide a “laptop DJ” service. This isn’t the same as providing the service of a professional DJ who reads the room and adapts to the feel on the night. Instead, they will have a playlist (usually on something like Spotify or iTunes) that they play out of their PA system. It's worth checking the details of this with the band, as some wedding bands only provide the live music and prefer to leave the rest of the evening's music to the couple or a professional DJ.

Can I choose the music that the wedding band plays in between and after their live sets?

Yes, usually you can send the band a list of requests before the wedding and the band will download them onto their laptop or device, ready to play on the night. Alternatively, you can compile a playlist and bring your own device to plug into the band’s PA system. You should check this with the band first, as not all bands are comfortable with others using their own equipment.

What songs will wedding bands play?

Most bands have a repertoire of songs that they perform regularly at weddings. This will be a tried-and-tested playlist that they know works well at weddings: it appeals to guests of all ages and keeps people on the dance floor. The set list will change throughout the year, as the band adds and removes songs.

Will the wedding band learn my first dance song?

Yes! Most bands will be delighted to learn your first dance song and perform it live for you on your wedding night. If it doesn’t fit the band’s style, then they might suggest you use the recorded version of the song and the band will play this out of their PA system.

Can I give a list of songs to the band to play at my wedding?

Most bands will usually learn one song for your wedding that isn’t already in their setlist. Some bands will offer to learn 2 or 3 new songs, but in our experience they are rarely able to learn more than this. It can be very time consuming for the band to learn and rehearse new songs, and especially so for singers to learn all the new lyrics.

Can I indicate my song preferences to the wedding band?

Yes. Most bands will be happy for you to indicate which songs from their set list you dislike and don’t want them to play, and songs that you like and absolutely want them to play on the night. The band will usually then build their setlist around these preferences.

What time will the wedding band arrive?

Most bands aim to arrive at around 5pm to be ready to play by 7pm. During this time they will set up their equipment and carry out a sound check, essential to making sure the volume of the band is appropriate to your venue and that any sound / noise limiters are taken into account.

Can the wedding band turn up earlier than that?

Yes, most bands will be happy to turn up earlier than 5pm, but you should expect to pay them for the extra time. A lot of wedding couples worry about the band setting up while guests are at the venue. Bands with lots of experience of weddings should be able to set up discreetly and without making too much noise and mess. The noisiest part is when they have to carry out the sound check, but this should only last about 15 - 30 minutes.

What time will the wedding band finish?

Most bands expect to finish by midnight. This suits most weddings as the majority of venues require live music to stop by this time.

Can the wedding band stay later than midnight?

Usually, yes, the band can finish after midnight. But bands will normally charge a slightly higher fee for this later finish, and this should be arranged with the band in advance.

Can I use the wedding band’s PA system after midnight?

Usually, yes. Though this will also attract a slightly higher fee, as it means that at least one band member has to wait until the end of the party to pack up the PA system and head home. Some band members might be a couple of hours’ drive away from your venue, so finishing at 1am means they won’t arrive home until 3am or 4am.

Will the wedding band bring their own equipment?

Yes. Professional wedding bands will bring their own equipment. This includes a PA system, mixing desk, some basic lighting for the dance floor and their own instruments. If you are planning a particularly large wedding with hundreds of guests, you might consider hiring in a larger PA system and more lighting. Not all bands in Europe provide their own equipment (e.g. they might not bring lighting), so you may wish to check this before booking.

Do wedding bands need a stage?

No. Most bands are happy to perform without a stage, though it can look special if you can offer them a stage to perform on.

If I do provide a stage, how much space will the wedding band need?

This will depend on the size of the band of course, but to give you a rough idea, a 4-piece band would usually need at least 5m x 4m. This is to provide room for not only the band members themselves, but also their instruments (keyboards and drum kits take up quite a bit of space) and other things like speakers and a mixing desk.

Can I or my guests perform or sing with the wedding band?

If you ask the band in advance, most will be happy to allow you or one of your guests to sing or play along with them for one or two songs. We always advise checking this with your band first.

Do I need to hire a DJ as well as a wedding band?

Most bands will provide pre-recorded playlists between and after their live sets, so your entire evening will be covered. However, if you want a professional DJ who will adapt his music choices on the night and interact with guests, then it’s better to hire a DJ as well.

If I do hire a separate DJ, can the wedding band and DJ share equipment?

Bands and DJs will often share the same PA system, as it can look cluttered to have two sets of speakers around the dance floor. However, you’ll need to discuss this with both the DJ and band before the event to check the equipment suits everyone’s requirements and that everyone is happy to share. One problem can arise when the DJ is booked to provide music into the small hours, but the band is to finish at 11pm. In this case, it would make more sense for the band to use the DJ’s equipment to save the band having to wait until the DJ had finished his set.

Do I need to provide anything for the wedding band?

Professional wedding bands will normally bring all their own technical equipment and instruments. However, most will expect to be provided with a hot meal each and soft drinks. The musicians will probably have left their homes around lunchtime to arrive at your venue in good time to set up and soundcheck. It can be a long day for them and they will be much more energetic on stage if they’ve had a good meal and refreshments before performing for you. The bands won’t expect to be given the same meal as you provide for your guests. Most wedding venues have an option you can purchase in advance for your suppliers or you can give the musicians access to your buffet if you’re having one.

Will the wedding band members be the same as the ones I’ve seen in their videos?

Not always. Most professional bands will have a core group that plays at the majority of weddings they are booked for. However, they will also have a group of deputies (or “deps” as they are known in the industry) that they call upon frequently to cover for band members. This is a standard and essential practice in the music industry. Most musicians work as freelancers, meaning they might work for different function bands or tour with famous pop groups for example. Being able to draw upon a deputy musician to cover a band member who is unavailable (or ill) means the rest of the band can still work.

What do wedding bands wear?

You should get a good idea of what the band wears from their videos online. Most will opt for a smart shirt, but if you have a particular theme or any requests, let them know well in advance. For example, if you’re having an 80s style wedding, you might want to check if the band could wear appropriate clothing to match!

Will the wedding band need parking spaces?

Most bands will arrive by car as it’s the easiest way for them to bring their equipment and instruments. Having 1 or 2 parking spaces available for them to use that are close to the venue will be appreciated by the musicians. In certain cities such as London, you might also need to cover the costs of parking.

Can wedding bands play outside?

If you’re getting married in Europe, it’s a good idea to make the most of the summer months and have as much of your wedding outside if possible. That said, the weather isn’t always the most reliable – so whilst many bands will be happy to play outside in principle, they will always require access to a shelter from the elements, whether that’s strong sunlight or rain. Musicians’ instruments can be worth thousands of pounds and a small amount of water damage or sun can have a devastating impact on the instrument.

Do I need a contract with my wedding band?

The most secure way to book a band is to do so via FixTheMusic. All bookings are governed by the agreement on our website, which is based on the Musicians Union standard contract and amended by the particular details that you agree with your band by email (date, venue etc.). The contract provides protection to both parties.
