Party / Function Band Repertoire

A performance at a wedding would be different to a corporate event, and a 60th birthday party would be different to a 21st birthday party, so we have plenty of songs to choose from in order to cater for all occasions. We will always attempt to accommodate a small number of requests from the repertoire list to make the event as personalised as possible. FUNKification's covers band repertoire is one of the largest you will find.

If you are booking a band for a wedding and are considering which song to choose for your first dance please see our page on first dances for weddings.

The list below gives the most common choices of repertoire but you can also view our complete live band repertoire to see if any of your favourites are featured.
