Weddings, parties and corporate events
Live karaoke for weddings, parties and company events—starring your own crowd.
A professional live band gives the room an instant party. Bandeoke takes it further by putting friends, relatives and colleagues into the show, creating moments no ordinary function band or playlist could reproduce.
Beautiful venue. Unpredictable lead singer. Excellent combination.
Your wedding singer is already on the guest list.
Start with polished live music, then let bridesmaids, best men, family and friends turn the reception into a show that belongs completely to your wedding.
Explore wedding Bandeoke →The birthday where the audience keeps joining the lineup.
Milestone birthdays, engagements and anniversaries become bold solos, unlikely duets and group numbers that gain extra members before the first chorus.
Explore party Bandeoke →Give the team microphones instead of another icebreaker.
Awards nights, conferences and Christmas parties become naturally interactive, with colleagues and clients creating the entertainment together.
Explore corporate Bandeoke →Live rockaoke song list
Rockaoke with real guitars, live drums and a repertoire made for enormous choruses.
Every track is arranged for the live band and paired with synced lyrics. Guests can choose the guaranteed crowd favourite, the ambitious vocal challenge or the song everybody already knew they would pick.
The Suffolk coast stays calm. The backing vocals do not.
Party warning
May uncover a suspiciously polished duet, an aggressive tambourine technique and one singer demanding another slot.
The opening line lands. Every table claims the chorus.
A familiar first choice explains the whole show before the singer has reached the second verse.
The song is ambitious. The confidence arrives anyway.
The room stops scoring accuracy and starts rewarding commitment somewhere near the first high note.
The quiet guest steps up and suddenly owns the stage.
The person nobody expected arrives with a voice—and a performer stance—they had apparently been keeping secret.
The old friendship group remembers every lyric and invents the moves.
One song brings back the voices, the confidence and several stories best kept off the microphone.
The solo becomes a supergroup before the count-in.
One microphone becomes two and the available stage space becomes a matter of opinion.
The last singer inherits the whole room as a backing band.
They take the verses. Everybody else takes responsibility for the ending.
From party band to guest takeover
First we fill the dance floor. Then your guests front the band.
Professional party-band sets bring the room together before the first singer is called. Once everybody is dancing and singing from the floor, our host opens the queue and turns that energy towards the stage.
Plan the first singer. Hide the surprise. Let the party do the rest.

The final performances bring larger groups, louder backing vocals and considerably less restraint.
End on the takeoverPopular format
Two 45-minute party-band sets followed by around 60 minutes of Bandeoke.
That is a proven starting point rather than a fixed package. Guest singing can be shorter, split across the evening or expanded into the headline feature.
The complete Bandeoke show
The live band, QR song list, synced lyrics and singing host all come as standard.
This is a complete guest-singer production, not a function band taking random requests. The musicians, repertoire, queue and lyric system are prepared together so every volunteer gets a clean entrance and a proper live ending.
The guest can improvise. The production absolutely does not.
A proper party band before anybody from the crowd sings a note.
A singing host leads guitar, keys, bass and drums through polished live sets and every guest performance.

We tailor the stage and sound for everything from Ipswich spaces to barns and houses around Woodbridge and the Deben Valley.
The production is planned around the room, access and sound conditions rather than one fixed setup.
We cover Lowestoft, Southwold, Aldeburgh, Felixstowe and surrounding coastal towns and villages.
From Sudbury and Lavenham to Stowmarket and the wider countryside, we plan for the exact space and schedule.
Not listed? We cover the whole county.
Send us the venue postcode and we will plan the lineup, access and production for the space.
Planning Bandeoke in Suffolk?
Before your guests become rock stars and pop divas.
The performances can be spontaneous. The stage, sound and running order are prepared long before the first singer is called.
Calm backstage. Increasingly ambitious out front.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
Yes. We perform throughout the county, including Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Lowestoft, Newmarket, Sudbury, Woodbridge, Felixstowe, Stowmarket, Beccles and surrounding towns and villages.
Will Bandeoke work in a large Ipswich or Bury St Edmunds venue?
Yes. For larger spaces we assess stage dimensions, sightlines, PA coverage and whether additional audience lyric or video screens are needed.
Can you perform at coastal venues?
Yes. We confirm parking, loading routes, access times, sound restrictions and curfews in advance, as these can vary at hotels and venues around Lowestoft, Southwold, Aldeburgh and Felixstowe.
Can you perform in barns and rural venues?
Yes. We plan around vehicle access, load-in distance, power, stage space, sound limits and the venue curfew.
Can the band work with a sound limiter?
Often, yes. We need the limiter specification and venue guidance in advance because very restrictive systems may affect the lineup and achievable live level.
Can you use the venue’s PA and lighting?
Yes, provided the installed production meets the show requirements. We send a technical specification and agree exactly what the venue or supplier will provide.
How much stage space does the band need?
The footprint depends on the lineup, lyric screen and production setup. Share the usable dimensions and we will recommend a safe, workable layout.
Does anybody get forced to sing?
No. Guests submit a song because they want to perform. The host supports volunteers but never drags somebody up or makes reluctance part of the show.
Can we prepare a surprise performance?
Yes. A partner, friend, relative or colleague can arrange a song in advance while the performance remains a surprise for the rest of the room.
Can we request a song that is not on the list?
Possibly. Advance requests need enough time for the arrangement, key and synced lyrics to be prepared properly.
What happens if a guest loses their place?
The host, lyric screen and musicians provide clear cues and can usually guide the singer back in without stopping the performance.
Can the show include corporate branding?
Yes. Options include branded lyric graphics, audience screens, walk-up cues, live cameras and larger staging.
Suffolk, are you ready to Bandeoke?
