About / Biography

The Mission

With a fresh modern sound , Elevation Avenue is one of the most exciting live bands in the North! Elevation Avenue perform a mix of soul, funk and rock covers to entice any crowd!

Elevation Avenue take great songs that everyone will know and love, given a modern infectious twist! The set includes a wide playlist of new age modern pop from artists such as Bruno Mars Dua Lipa and Justin Timberlake, classic disco and soul from Chic and Earth Wind and Fire, timeless funk hits from Stevie Wonder and James Brown, reggae music from Bob Marley, through to classic rock such as Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Aerosmith and Santana. There’s a great mix of old classics, the latest hits, and everything in between!

We are an experienced professional band, and we take bookings for private parties, weddings, and public venues. We tailor our setlist for each event we perform, to make sure the event is a big success!

Leading the band on vocals is Anton, with his soulful tone and great dynamic range. James is the 6 stringed virtuoso, playing choppy rhythm guitar and melodic solos in a range of styles. Gergely is the band’s technical wizard on keyboards, melting his distinctive and complex jazz and blues instrumental technique into each song. The solid engine behind the music is provided by the powerful funky basslines of Owen and the syncopated percussive might of Mitch on drums.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

We've played many great weddings in some fantastic venues all around the North! One of the most unusual wedding venues was inside a brewery, and was a fantastic wedding for a lovely couple! We have also played many olde barns, nightclubs, and grand hotel rooms!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I think we are most influenced by the obvious great artists such as Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, etc, and this band shows a great mix of those influences. I think as individuals, we are all influenced by all sorts of lesser known artists, and more specisit type music, which I think shows in our solos and playing.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We started the band approximately 10 years ago. We spent a few years playing the pubs and clubs of the North, which was great fun, before getting booked for larger corporate events and weddings. I've lost count of the number of parties, weddings, bars and events we've played since!


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

Nightclubs and bars are great fun, but nothing beats playing to a great crown on a couple's special wedding day! Honestly though, I think I like the excuse to dress up in formal wear!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

2 hour set up time.
2 x 1 hour sets in the evening.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, happy to perform outside, but the stage needs to be covered by a marquee in case of rain (electricity and water don't mix well!)


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Yes, clients can choose a couple of songs to include.
Also happy to learn a first dance request for weddings.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

We always great great feedback, and our audiences love dancing and singing along to the great songs. We've made a few wedding couples cry with joy before! (Can't get a better reaction than that!)
