'You were absolutely fantastic and we couldn't have been happier that we chose you! The piano playing upstairs provided a lovely backdrop to the reception, and the band's music after dinner was just what we'd hoped and more. The mix of songs you played was so varied and provided something for everyone... We couldn't believe how many people were on the dance floor right throughout the evening - far more than at any other wedding we've been to... On top of all that you were great to deal with from the time we got in touch with you, through our many emails, and on the day itself. We didn't have to worry about the band at all, you just got on with things and did a great, professional job - so thanks again.'
Andrew and Suzanne
'Our wedding went absolutely fantastically - and when the band, Ricochet, started during the evening the crowd were up and dancing even during the 1st song!!
And they kept it going throughout the rest of the night playing a wide variety of classic dance tracks including personal requests - I would recommend them everytime, it truly put the icing on our cake.'
Ali and Rizwana
'Ricochet really helped make our wedding day so special. From our first dance right through to the end they kept all of our guests highly entertained. We left the playlist to them and were extremely happy with their choice of song. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their music, the feedback was excellent from our guests and we would highly recommend them, they were fantastic!'
Jess and Chris

Ricochet is an energetic, experienced, funky and cool wedding and function band! All members of the band are professional musicians, graduates from London's finest music colleges and have played throughout the country and abroad. Ricochet performs a variety of music: Pop, Funk and Jazz. We can play one type of music at your event, or any combination.
Ricochet Pop is great for after-dinner events, where people want to get up and dance, like after wedding meals. This is a 5-piece band. Check out 'You Can Call Me Al' and 'Your Song' in the music player above.
Ricochet Funk(instrumental) is perfect for that cool vibe at a party where people may want to dance, but are equally happy to chat and dig the vibe. Great for birthday parties. Can be a 4 or a 5-piece band. Have a listen to 'Caravan' and 'Have A Good Time' above.
Ricochet Jazz is just totally laid-back. Ideal for background music at a drinks reception (for example a wedding reception), during a meal, or anything you want. Can be piano, solo piano and voice, a duo (piano and voice or guitar and clarinet/sax), trio (voice/sax/clarinet, piano/guitar and bass or drums), quartet (voice/sax/clarinet, piano/guitar, bass and drums), a 5 or a 6-piece band (voice, sax/clarinet, trumpet/trombone, piano/guitar, bass and drums). 'Body and Soul' and 'Kind Folk', above, are Jazz.
Depending on the requirements of the client, we can tailor our set (we perform a maximum of 3 requests). PLEASE SEE BLOG ABOVE FOR DETAILS INCLUDING PRICES.
