• 5 piece male band with FREE DJ option as standard
• Cool, up to date and ready to impress!
• Friendly guys happy to accommodate most requests
• Mega- talented musicians with LOTS of experience
• A mixed repertoire to suit all ages from 60s to present day

These 5 guys have been entertaining crowds up and down the country with their modern day set list and incredible musicianship.

"We still play a traditional first dance at Weddings, but after that we want everyone taking off their jackets and swinging them around their heads on the dance floor. You know that feeling you get when you watch Rocky I, II, III, IV and to a lesser extent V.... That’s what you get when you watch one of our gigs!"

Anthem play 2 x 1 hr sets or 3 x 40 minute sets, as they find this works best for both the audience and the band. However, the group are happy to tailor the set to your requirements; it is after all your event.

Besides playing pre-recorded CD music when they are not performing, Anthem also offers a DJ option in the form of one of the band members manning a laptop with quite literally thousands of songs on hand. The guys are happy to include this free of charge for any event. However, finishes later than midnight will entail a slight additional charge.

Anthem has been set up and established by veteran musicians who have taken every consideration into mind from tempo’s and key changes through to dance floor filling capability however if there is a first dance you would like, please request it and the guys will do their best to accommodate.

Ideally, Anthem requires 2 hours for set up and sound check. However, if this is a problem they will always do their best to accommodate any given situation.

With regards performance space, Anthem have played on both small and large stages and whilst there is no set size it does help to have some leg room for a great performance! Please bear in mind, these guys do not stand still and like to have fun on stage!

Anthem has full Public Liability Insurance and PAT Certificates.

Emma Langley, Wedding, Wellington, Somerset
Hi Matt, Anthem were the best band we have ever heard!! The most packed dance floor we've ever seen!! The boys really were truly amazing and cannot reccomend them highly enough to all. Every single person were talking about them after our wedding day, we think more than they were talking about us! We have had so many positive comments from all our guests and we are sure they will have lots of future bookings from our guests, and know of one who has asked for details already for a 50th birthday! Anthem are so versatile and played so many different era's of music that got literally ALL of our guests up dancing, even my grandparents! Matt, thank you so much. You were always there for us when we had any burning questions and replied within the day. Brilliant! Once again thank you so much, Anthem really made our night.

Norman Bevitt (Father of the Bride), Wedding, Thirsk, Yorkshire
Hi Matt, this is Norman Bevitt, Rachel's father, writing to you. Our impressions of the band Anthem were very positive. Everyone who attended the evening wedding party remarked both during the entertainment and afterwards that the band were fantastic, wonderful, receptive to people's requests, played all the right music and generally helped promote the evening into a very memorable occasion. I have no hesitation in recommending both the band Anthem and Warble Entertainment Agency. I enclose a photo of Anthem in action.

Gary and Diana Bryant, Wedding, Sevenoaks, Kent
Hi Matt... feedback for the band, I really don’t know where to start! Amazing from start to finish, very professional and mature for such a young bunch of lads. They got everyone involved and dancing and interacted brilliantly with the audience. They had us on stage doing a stint as lead singers, and were prepared to get into the audience and compete with their air guitars... The first dance songs we asked for were covered brilliantly. The lead singer was a real charmer, and my young nieces were spell bound! He was so complimentary, with comments that were so particular to our wedding and not just a standard set of quotes that might have been churned out for any audience. After the final set (when we finally let them finish ;-)  the whole band were more than happy to hang out and chat with anyone who wanted to talk to them... they were like our best friends for the evening, and we’ll be sad if we don’t get to see them again.

Louise and Grant Smith, Wedding, Leatherhead, Surrey
Hi Tracey, Thank you, we both had a fantastic day and we were absolutely thrilled with Anthem. Right from the start they were awesome and I have had so many of our guests say that they were the highlight of the day. I would agree, second to the getting married part of course! They seemed to gauge their audience very well and the dancefloor was packed for every song. They were exactly what I wanted to get the party going. Thanks for all your help and prompt replies throughout the organising, much appreciated.

Rachel Hall, Birthday Party, Vale of Belvoir, Leicestershire
Anthem were fantastic, everyone at our party and afterwards commented on how good they were and asked where I'd found - I've passed on all the info! Thanks again, we had a great night, they absolutely rocked x

Stuart & Sharron Cruickshank, Wedding, Norwich
Hi Tracey, I just wanted to say thank you so much for helping us find our band for your wedding on the 5th June 2010. We booked Anthem and they were the were the greatest band ever, every single person who came commented on them. If we have another party I know who we will be booking. Thanks again!

Dawn & Richard, Wedding, Hopwood, Birmingham
Hi Matt, we all had a great time, you guys were brillant and you all just made the night and got everybody got up dancing. We were so happy we picked the Anthem band for our wedding. Can't wait to see the band again thank you all so much!

Caroline Mills, Wedding, Marlow, Oxfordshire
Hi Matt, Anthem were awesome thanks – we absolutely loved them, and so did our guests. They absolutely made the party, they were so enthusiastic and energetic they really did have the dance floor packed every time they played. We thanked them rather drunkenly on the night, but I would be really grateful if you could pass on both our thanks to them. We’ll definitely be recommending them to anyone that will listen! Thanks again.

Steve Byford - Tilbury Community Association, Charity Event, Essex
Hi Matt, Good Time Was Had By All. Sold Approx. 250 Tickets And Had Great Feedback From Our Customers, So Much So, That We Have Re-Booked The Band For December. Thanks Again!

Will Todd, Wedding, Tillington, West Sussex
Hi Tracey, We're now in Guatemala. The wedding was fantastic and Anthem were a real highlight. Played good upbeat well known tracks, worked the audience really well who were mainly 30 somethings. They were confident charismatic entertainers and responded to requests. They reworked their second set in their break to suit the crowd. Friends loved them. Much hard raving. I would 100% recommend them to others. Great for a good dance.

Sue Usher (Mother of the Bride), Wedding, Hoxton Apprentice, London
Dear Matt, Many thanks to Anthem, they were great. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their music and they read the crowd beautifully. I found using your service very easy and will certainly recommend you to friends.

Dulcie & Luke, Wedding, Sherborne, DorsetJust wanted to say on behalf of myself and my new wife, thank you very much for your excellent set last night. Sorry we didn't get a chance to mention that to you before we left. It made our wedding day and everyone's been raving about you so I think there might be some repeat business in the future for you guys! First dance was incredible so thanks again for everything you did and hope you all got home safely.

Hazel Newton, Charity Event, Solihull, West Midlands
Hi Matt, Just want to say a BIG THANK YOU the evening was a great success and the Band were brilliant we have had loads of facebook mentions about how good they were and wished we could of had them for longer. The dance floor was full and the group really entertained. Fabulous night and if we decide to do it next year for another cause we will definitely book them.

Gareth and Sarah Barker, Wedding, Wadenhoe, Peterborough
Matt, Can I ask you to pass on our thanks to Anthem. They recently played at our wedding and they were amazing. The music was brilliant, the band was brilliant and they even managed to grab the majority of my non-dancing family on to the floor - they even got our parish priest dancing to the Stereophonics - and we have the photos to prove it! I might be biased but I think they were the best band I have ever seen at a wedding. In fact, people at the end of the night were asking for your contact number so that they could book them for their own event - especially my cousin, although she may have had ulterior motives for trying to get their telephone number!

Sgt Danny McMillan, Military Dinner Night, Bordon, HampshireMatt, just a quick note to let you know that our Dinner night on the 20th Feb went really well. This was mainly due to Anthem, the band you supplied us. Who, for a bunch of young lads were very professional and brilliant entertainment. Everyone who attended the function have had nothing but great comments for these 5 guys. We hold many large functions in our WOs' and Sgts' mess such as a variety night in April and also a large Summer and Xmas ball. Our entertainments committe have already been in touch with me for your details as we can always use professional and reliable companies such as yours. Also please let me thank you for the way you managed our situation in re-sheduling our function, your company has been a pleasure to deal with and I will definately recommend you to any camps in the local area.
