Comprised of 3 saxophones and a bespoke portable drum kit, Hero Horns delivers a unique blend of improvised groove music and covers. Originally formed as a street busking band, this energetic and talented act brings the raw electricity of live street performance to stages and events.
A perfect addition to any occasion, Hero Horns offer a complete covers set full of hard hitters that will get heads turning and guests dancing. They move seamlessly between songs, drawing from all time classics, 90’s floor fillers, and modern day hits to springboard into exciting improvisations.
Whether it’s marching wedding guests down an aisle, entertainment for a drinks reception, or providing walk on stings for an award ceremony, Hero Horns are incredibly versatile and adaptable to the situation at hand.
They are available as a stage performance or an acoustic roaming band, which can be completely mobile while playing. This allows performances to take place in a plethora of exciting scenarios.
For larger-scale events, Hero Horns can also be connected to a P.A. system, and their wireless microphone set up still allows for a great deal of mobility. Please enquire for any further details and to find out what we can bring to your event.
Together and individually they have played at venues such as Wembley Stadium, The O2, NIA Birmingham, The Royal Albert Hall, The Union Chapel, the Southbank centre, and main stages at Shambala, Bestival, and Boomtown festivals. Members have performed alongside artists including Rita Ora, Beverley Knight, Peter Andre, Lee Ryan and Beardyman.

We all studied at Jazz college so many of our influences come from the Jazz greats like John Coltrane and Charlie Parker, we have wide reaching tastes and allow our numerous experiences playing other genres to influence our sound and our music when we play together. Collectively we love funk, disco, R&B, Soul Motown and just about anything that gets people dancing.
We are all professional musicians in our own right who met whilst studying together at Trinity Laban conservatoire, we gig individually with other bands, artists and DJ's and have been working in various areas of the London and international scene for the last 15 years
We love playing at Weddings and Festivals where people really feel the enegry of what we're doing up close, if people are able to dance, we're having a good time.
