Firstly, congratulations on your upcoming Wedding and many thanks for considering SOUTHBOUND to perform for your special day. Weddings are our specialty and we have built up vast experience which will guarantee you and your quests a party to remember!!
SPECIALIST WEDDING SONG LIST & REPERTOIRE
We have tailored our song lists to include music from many genres including Country, Irish, Rock, Pop, Soul, Motown, RnB and contemporary charts with hits from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s 90’s, 00’s to TODAY.
Check out our SONG LIST page for a summary of the music we have chosen with each song guaranteed to fill the dancefloor. New material is added to our set list regularly. Our normal set list is designed to cater for a mixed age audience so you can usually leave set choices to ourselves. However, if your event will have a predominantly younger crowd, let us know and we can concentrate on more modern music by request and omit the older stuff. Alternatively, we also have a set list for an older audience, so if you want more Waltz, Jives and Siege of Ennis/Irish music in the set please let us know and that can also be arranged.
First DANCE SET LIST
You will also see our suggestions for your first dance on our SONG LIST page, again with the most popular songs of the last 4 decades chosen. We are constantly updating and learning new material so the list is not exhaustive. We understand however that everyone’s musical taste is unique and if there is a specific song that you would like us to perform please provide us with at least 2 months notice so we can learn it for you. Alternatively, many people prefer the original artists and we can provide any song of your choice on a CD/MP3 if you wish.
PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE GUARANTEED
When you hire SOUTHBOUND you can be sure that we will act in a professional manner. We have a state of the art sound, stage and lighting system and we are always formally dressed on stage. We offer a high energy performance with a lot of crowd interaction to ensure that the dancefloor is rocking all night long. We offer the usual wedding rituals such as “Throwing the Bouquet”, “Brides dance with her father”, “dnace with parents” Siege of Ennis” and “Bride & Groom send off”. Of course you can pick and choose on this, you can have everything or indeed leave all of this out if you wish, it’s entirely up to you! SOUTHBOUND ensure a minimum of breaks between songs and we don’t rely on backing tracks so you can be sure that the music you hear is entirely authentic with full live drums and instruments.
We usually play background music prior to commencing our performance and during the usual break for afters food. In addition we always ensure a smooth transition from Band to DJ without a break. Also we do not drink alcohol on stage, we are working after all !
BAND, DJ & WEDDING COMEDY PACKAGES AVAILABLE
SOUTHBOUND work with a number of professional DJ’s who cater specifically for weddings and corporate events. We have also teamed up with a Wedding Comedy & Cabaret production company who can provide alternative entertainment for your event. Therefore we can offer a special DISCOUNT BAND, DJ & WEDDING COMEDY PACKAGE if any two are booked together. This has the advantage in that the DJ sets up at the same time as the Band ensuring no delays between Band & DJ. Also the Wedding Comedy can be organised before, after or during the meal, prior to the Band commencing or during the afters food break. Please contact us by phone or email for details.
EXTENSIVE NETWORK IN THE WEDDING INDUSTRY
Given our vast experience in the wedding music industry and our regular attendance and (performances) at Hotel Wedding Fairs and Bridal Exhibitions, we have built up rapport with other wedding providers including Hotels, Photographers/Videographers, Irish Dance Groups, Comedians and DJ’s. As such we are very familiar with the stage locations, set up times, timing of afters food breaks etc in most of the Hotels in Ireland. This enables everything to run smoothly on the night as there are no delays setting up and commencing our set.
Here are just some of the Brides, Grooms and Venues we have performed for (we would like to thank all our brides and grooms for their permission in allowing us to publish these photos)
