About / Biography

The Pocket Club are a polished, feel-good covers band specialising in Funk/Soul and Indie/Pop, with the flexibility to perform as a refined Acoustic Duo when required.

Fronted by powerhouse vocalist Lois, whose distinctive tone is often compared to Amy Winehouse with the attitude and charm of Lily Allen, The Pocket Club balance character with control. The band’s sound is rooted in groove, feel and taste, allowing songs to breathe while still hitting hard where it counts.

Their Acoustic Duo setup strips everything back, focusing on Carlos' Jazz/Soul theory based guitar work, offering a refined, intimate option ideal for ceremonies, drinks receptions and smaller spaces, while the full quartet brings maximum impact when it’s time to turn things up. With over 15 years performing, The Pocket Club bring a level of cohesion and professionalism that consistently elevates every stage they step onto.

With a 150+ song repertoire and adaptable set formats, The Pocket Club are a proven favourite for weddings, venues, and events, offering nostalgia-driven sets that resonate across generations. Having previously supported Busted, The Darkness, and Scouting For Girls.

• Safe, grounded 230V mains power access (minimum 2 x 13A double socket outlets near stage right/left).

Sound & Monitoring:

• Stage Monitoring: Minimum


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Unfortunately not at the moment, watch this space!


What information do you require about a venue?

If there are any special loading in/out info or directions for the venue. We'd also need to be informed if theres a sound limiter.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

We're more than happy to control a DJ service before and between our sets. The music chosen can either be left to us, or the host.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Performing alongside Busted at Millennium Square in Leeds was an undeniable career highlight. That said, nothing beats the electric atmosphere of our local city-centre residencies, where we get to build an incredible connection with a packed room week in, week out.


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

Amy Winehouse, Steely Dan, Justin Bieber and Dolly Parton. We'll leave it there, otherwise we will embarrass ourselves with some questionable guilty pleasures.


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

Half of us were in an originals Indie Pop band, who poached the other members when blown away by their talent at the local open mic night. The wolf-pack grew that night.


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

Yet to find a spot we're not fond of. Anywhere that has a dance floor we can fill is what gets us pumped.


What do you wear on stage?

We dress to fit the occasion. For formal weddings and corporate events, we lean into sharp, coordinated attire. For private parties or boutique venue dates, we go for stylish, smart-casual outfits that suit a high-energy stage performance.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We're really flexible as we understand each event has different requirements. However we'd suggest us arriving a couple of hours before the performance to quietly set up.
Quick line-check before we start the performance (Usually x2 45 minute sets/x3 30 minutes sets)
More than happy to extend or cut those timings


Are you happy to perform outside?

Would love to, as long as we can make sure our equipment is safe from the reliable British weather.


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

We usually tailor the set list on what we'd recommend from our repertoire for the event. Happy to chat about requests prior too!


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Our gigs have been compared to a "House party" environment, a big energy filled with nostalgia anthems that gets the crowd going every time.


What happens if our event schedule runs behind on the night?

Live events rarely run to the exact minute, and we completely get that. We build flexibility into our schedule so if speeches run over or food service is delayed, we can adapt on the fly and adjust set timings to ensure you still get your full live performance.


Can we use your PA system for our speeches or announcements?

Yes, absolutely. You are welcome to use our microphones and PA system for speeches, announcements, or toastmaster duties before our main set begins. Just let us know in advance so we can have everything set up and ready to go.


Do you take breaks, and how long are they?

For a standard package of 2 x 45-minute sets, we typically take a 30 minute break in between. During this time, our Virtual DJ service takes over so the party vibe never drops while the band recharges.
