Welcome
The Replicas are the Midland's favourite party/function/wedding band. They cover a vast array of musical styles, meaning they will always have something for everyone.
We believe that covers should be done with originality. All of the party staples are available, but we take pride in reworking pop classics into massive party bangers (who else would open their headline festival set with ABBA?!). We put on a spectacle, wherever we are. It’s exciting, it’s memorable, and it’s everything that your guests need to get moving. It’s unapologetically rock ‘n roll, and we love it.
We perform as a five piece, and it's the same five band members that have been together for over fifteen years. We have performed at private functions, festivals and corporate events across the UK, gaining years of experience. The result is a tight, professional performance that your guests will remember forever. We love doing what we do, and it shows!
The band insist on providing a personal experience, and are happy to learn songs for individual clients. Whilst our shows are dramatic, planning your event won’t be. We will guide you through everything that you need to know and do. Our communication with clients and venues is second to none, so you can rest assured that you are in safe hands. We want your event to be a success as much as you do, nothing is too much trouble.

Testimonials
I was given the task of planning the entertainment for our Bromfest Festival this year at Bromford. I've seen the Replicas perform several times previously at other occasions, so I was confident that they would be a huge hit with all my Bromford colleagues. Simply enough, I'd say these guys are AMAZING! They are experts at music and are incredibly friendly and down to earth guys. They play such a wide range of music and know how to get the crowd rocking. The following were some of the remarks made by colleagues who attended the festival:
"Awesome music," "Fantastic band," "Can we have them again next year," and "Lovely group of lads."
This group has been around for a long time, and I think it is clear they aren't big headed; rather, they are down to earth guys who are just loving what they do. I would have no problem recommending them to anyone! They will be 100% invited to perform at our festival again next year!!! Thanks for such an amazing day!!!

We had a fantastic time and you guys made the evening! You were exactly as expected from what I had heard from Alex and more! We didn't even see you set up, you were all so professional and made the evening run so smoothly! All our guests have commented and said what a fantastic band you were and you played all the best songs, which got everyone on the dance floor. Thank you so much. I would highly recommend you again! :)

Dave, Dan, Sam, Nathan and Nick - wow. Thank you SO much for an absolutely amazing headliner at our wedding on Saturday! We've seen you play a couple of times before so we knew you were good, but your sets at our wedding reception just blew us away - I have never seen a reception where literally EVERY single person there was up and dancing - we should have got a bigger dance floor!! Probably your biggest fans on the night were our other band, The Startled Ferrets (Tom's dad's band) - Tom's dad Alan hasn't stopped talking about what fantastic musicians you are and how you perfectly sang and played difficult songs like Bohemian Rhapsody and the Beatles medley. Very very well done, thank you so much for making our night!
Lisa Benjamin, married Stratford
Having seen The Replicas at a number of our friends' weddings we were in no doubt as to who we should book for ours! We certainly weren't disappointed, they went down a storm with all our guests and the dance floor was heaving throughout the night. We were asked by a number of those present who were getting married next year if the Replicas would be prepared to travel to their weddings such was the response. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
Clare Moran, married Fazely Studios, Digbeth, Birmingham
Thank you to you guys for playing at our wedding! We have had so many comments from our guests about how great you were are and what a fantastic job you did ... We were so pleased we booked you! Loved watching the videos you posted from the night x
Charlotte Stubbs, married Somerford Hall, Brewood
Where do we start...I don't think the word INCREDIBLE quite covers it!! The Replicas played at our wedding reception and completely rocked it!! The variety of their set list catered for everyone of all ages and there was never an empty dance floor!! There really was something for everyone - the atmosphere was amazing!! I don't think I have ever seen so many people dancing at a wedding reception before (apart from my cousins wedding where they also had the Replica's playing!) The band are true professionals and outstanding performers!! Our guests are still talking about the band now and everyone has said 'they are by far the best band they have seen at a wedding'!! I can't recommend these guys highly enough, they will MAKE your evening reception!!
Jen Caswell, married Coombe Abbey, Coventry
We had a truly fantastic wedding day, made all the more special by the performance you guys gave. You judged the mood of the evening perfectly and it ended exactly as we’d hoped; with everyone up on their feet and having a truly memorable time. We honestly can’t thank you enough. Not only on the day itself, but in the very long (covid extended) run up to the event you were nothing short of brilliant too, standing by us, providing flexibility and advice when it was needed. We simply couldn’t have asked for better support. One of our photos of the evening shows people who hadn't met each other before the day, but there they are all dancing together by the end of the night! Thanks again to you and the guys for making our day such a good one to remember.
Oliver Kyte, married Burlton Manor, Shrewsbury.
