Big choruses. Proper guitar solos. A room full of people singing them back.
We’re Animal Room, a five-piece covers band from the East Midlands, bringing rock, indie and pop favourites to weddings, private parties, corporate events, festivals and live venues across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Leicestershire and beyond.
Our setlist takes in Queen, Bon Jovi, The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Foo Fighters, Guns N’ Roses and plenty more. Expect timeless anthems, indie favourites and a few surprises along the way — from the drama of Bohemian Rhapsody to the punch of Misery Business, with powerful male lead vocals putting our own stamp on the songs.
With vocals, keys, two guitars, bass and drums, everything you hear in our band performances is played live, without backing tracks. There’s room for spontaneous moments, bandmate mischief and the kind of energy that comes from five people enjoying making music together. Watch our live footage to get a feel for what we bring to the room.
We’ll work with you on timings and song choices to help the music fit your occasion. Alongside the full band, we offer acoustic solo, duo and trio options for ceremonies, drinks receptions and more relaxed parts of the day. Planning a wedding? Ask us about performing your first dance live.
Standard music between sets is included, with a full request-taking DJ service available as an optional paid extra.
Whether you’re planning your wedding, celebrating a milestone or filling your venue with live music, we’d love to hear what you have in mind.
Animal Room. Good Nights. Loud Memories.
