£1,660 + TravelThrowback serve up the biggest tunes from the 80’s and 90’s with an ultra-modern 21st century twist. A super fun party band that’s a particularly good fit for venues with strict sound limits.
Smart, stylish and fun. A contemporary pop band playing the best retro hits!
“This is the second time I have booked Throwback for a private event and they absolutely did not disappoint. They were on time and liaised with the venue to get set up and start soundcheck. When I arrived, they were essentially done and ready to go. They checked in with me ahead of time and I had a chat with Olly, the Band Leader, ahead of the event so he could get more information about what I wanted and any special requests I had. They were all catered for. Throwback smashed the performance and got the party going. Everybody was singing and dancing along for the whole night. I only wish the set (which was already 2 hours in total) could have been even longer! I would absolutely book Throwback again.”
James - Birthday Party, The Exhibit, London“They were FANTASTIC!! Loved every minute - all our guests commented on how great they were. The acoustic set was absolutely perfect. And the band sets were just incredible and full of energy. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Thanks so much to each of them!!”
Nicola & Ollie - Wedding, Lains Barn, Oxfordshire“Tailored Entertainment were fantastic throughout the whole process; supported us in our search for a band that would be to our taste and meet our venue's requirements, communicated well from day one right up to the big day, made communicating with the band straight-forward and easy and managed payments without any issue. Throwback themselves were incredible! If you are looking for a band that sound great, have a great repertoire of songs and will get people up on their feet then we can't recommend them enough. The venue we booked had some challenging restrictions that the band had to manage and they did so with ease, delivering a superb performance. They were more than happy to accommodate all our requests on the booking form, and Olly from the band contacted us a few weeks before the event to get to know us and ensure we were all on the same page. So many of our guests have since mentioned how great the band were and the dance floor was never empty. Thanks so much for making our wedding reception one to remember!”
Ryan & Lucy - Wedding, Gaynes Park, Essex“Our experience with Throwback was excellent throughout the day. Everyone commented on how well they performed and how interactive they were. We would definitely book them again for future events.”
Gregg & James - Wedding, Gorse Hill Hotel, Woking“Throwback were INCREDIBLE. Hands down the best wedding/event band we've ever seen. Amazing set list that's really different vs the usual songs always played at weddings, which was exactly what we were looking for - where else can you hear both a dance anthems medley and a Spice Girls medley?! They are phenomenal performers, and so many of our guests commented on how fantastic they were. The dance floor was full all night long and we cannot recommend them highly enough. They kindly learned our first dance (Just the way you are by Milky) and played it perfectly, as well as nailing every element of our very detailed requests. The band were incredibly professional and polite and a dream to deal with both on the day and in the run up to the event. Tailored Entertainment did a brilliant job of getting us fully organised, answering all of my detailed questions and capturing all the information in one place to ensure the event ran perfectly smoothly - huge thanks to Chloe for all the help and support throughout the wedding preparations.”
Cat & Douglas - Wedding, Dyrham Park Farm, Hertfordshire“The band were brilliant and a great night was had by all! The band leader was really friendly and supportive in ensuring that everything fitted around the activities taking place on the evening. We would thoroughly recommend the band! Great fun.”
Insurance Institute Of Southampton - Corporate Party, St. Mary's Stadium, Southampton“I was astonished by how good Throwback were. My wife and I booked them for our wedding based on videos online and we were not disappointed. Throwback were astounding performers full of energy who were really keen to get everyone up on the dance floor. Their choice of songs was fantastic and excellently well performed to the extent where I had to remember it was not the original artist playing at times! We were particularly delighted with their wonderful rendition of Total Eclipse of the Heart which we requested and got everyone singing. Throwback were on time (if not early), excellent communicators in advance and just genuinely nice and decent people. Thank you for such a great show and for making our wedding day special. We would love to see you perform again at some point!”
Rosemary & Christopher - Wedding, Pangdean Farm, Sussex“The band played really well and got the crowd going.”
Stefan & Patricia - Wedding, Private Address, Surrey“Throwback are not only entertaining but also a musical delight. Such a lovely voice accompanied by a talented guitarist which makes for wonderful listening that is a delight for the ears. Would highly recommend Throwback to any music lover.”
Keaton - Corporate“A fantastic band - great sound and energy. They just make you want to get up and dance. I can’t praise them enough.”

Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features 80's and 90's favourites and party classics that you know and love.
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
60 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.
We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.
Yes - we can perform a 1 x 60-minute live lounge-style acoustic set as an add-on, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner. You can see a video of this set here.
The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.
If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.
Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.
The published guide price is based on our 5-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Fareham. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.
Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.
Yes.
Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.
We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.
2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.
The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £15 pp rider buyout.
As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
