The Best Male-Fronted Function Bands 2025

Last Updated: 11th December 2024

Here at Entertainment Nation we want to make sure you have plenty of choices when it comes to picking the perfect live wedding band, party band for hire or corporate entertainment! We know that everyone wants something different in a band. Some people prefer music from the current charts, and some people want music from the 60s, 70s or 80s, some people want a five-piece band, others want a thirteen-piece band. The choices are endless! Enquiring clients often request acts with male vocals as the singer does make a big difference to the way they perform. The songs included in a band’s repertoire will, to a large extent, depend on the lead singer’s range and vocal style.

You might want a male singer because your favourite song is originally by a boy band and you want a perfect rendition of it for your first dance. However, you may just prefer the male singing voice, or prefer their selection of songs. Either way, we offer plenty of bands with a male lead singer. They are usually supported by a male band, consisting of drums, bass and guitar. We have put together a selection of our best male fronted bands available for hire around the UK.

If you’re looking for a male-fronted band for your wedding, party or corporate event, pay attention now!
