Our recommended bands for Mudbrick wedding receptions are Soul 9 Yards, Pepperjacks, Good To Go, Allenby Park, Jumpsuit and Honeytrap.
Soul 9 Yards
Genres: Pop, Funk & Soul, R'n'B
Auckland based Soul 9 Yards have been performing their mix of Soul, Motown and 90s hip hop and r’n’b since 2017. The band perform soulful cuts by the likes of Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and Amy Winehouse, combining Allana Goldsmith’s honey dipped vocals with a backing band of some of Auckland’s baddest cats. Their music is raw, real and authentic, with plenty of room for every member to improvise and go where the songs lead them.
“What’s a party without awesome sounds? Soul 9 yards had my friends and family up dancing from early on and I loved seeing my mum dancing with everyone all night long. Allana wow what a voice so beautiful and the setlist couldn’t have been more perfect for this 50 year girl! Busy night and I just wish I could go back and replay it all over, everyone commented what an awesome band! Please pass on my thanks for making my celebration so memorable. Thanks also to findaband what a great website when trying to choose from all the amazing talent, thank you for organising it all for me.”

The Neo Trio is an Auckland band featuring three of the city's best musicians. The band performs music by Top 40 chart toppers like Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran and Maroon 5, as well as timeless classics by The Beatles, James Brown and Stevie Wonder.
"The dancefloor was full the whole time and we received so many complements from people today on how great Lee and the band was. There were people on the dancefloor that I never thought I would ever see dance! Lee was also very professional to deal with from when we first contacted him in January and over the last 11 months. He is a really genuine guy, and nothing was too much trouble. It made planning our wedding much easier having great vendors such as Lee & his band."

Whether the vibe is a laid back summer afternoon or something with a bit more dancefloor flavour, they have it covered. Allenby Park’s songlist includes John Legend, Ed Sheeran, Stevie Wonder, Kings of Leon, Toto, Prince and Bob Marley, and truly has something for everyone.
“Allenby Park performed during our welcome function which greeted guests from America, to New Zealand. Their ability to showcase the tones of New Zealand and set the mood to the crowd was impressive. Our client was shocked when so many guests started dancing later on in the evening after saying they were not a ‘dancy crowd’. Thank you Sam and Manoah, truly spectacular..”

Are you seeking an Auckland covers band that will get the people up and dancing, having fun and singing along? Jumpsuit are that band! Jumpsuit deliver tons of fun, songs you know and beats that won't stop. The band are very open to suggestions on how you'd like your event to run, and can shift gears from light background music right up to rock and pop anthems.
“Chris and the boys were a HUGE hit on the day during our annual Fletcher Building Round the Bays post event party. We had loads of positive feedback both on the day and post event, with lots of requests for a repeat performance in 2018. Music selection was perfect for this group with the band gave our 1200 pax marque (second biggest at Madills Farm) great atmosphere. Chris personalised parts of the songs bringing humour to this great playlist. The boys were punctual, friendly and accommodating and I will definitely be booking them again for future Fletcher Building Events plus recommending to friends, family and colleagues. Thanks again for a professional, successful gig guys!”

The Goods
Genres: Classic Hits, Top 40, Pop
The Goods have one simple rule - if it's a good song, they’ll make it a Goods song. Whether it’s from the 60s, 80s or today, if they find a tune they like, they’ll add it to their playlist. From Cake by The Ocean to Call Me Al, Dancing with a Stranger to Dead or Alive, Let’s Dance to Living on a Prayer, The Goods know all the good ones!
We had our Xmas party two weeks ago and were lucky enough to secure The Goods to play for us. Everyone was blown away with their vocals and loved the song choices they played. They really made the crowd come alive and I would recommend them to anyone looking for some good live music.
