Manifest has been rocking stages up and down the country for an impressive 15 years, making them one of the most sought-after function bands in the UK today. Their list of previous clients reads like a who's who of top brands, including Ferrari, BMW, Sony, Bentley, Triumph, Virgin, Lindt Chocolate, and E-On. They've also performed at prestigious venues such as Claridge's Hotel, Pinewood Studios, The Shard, Wembley Stadium, and the Natural History Museum. Their music has even taken them to international destinations like the Eiffel Tower in Paris, Amman in Jordan, and Marrakesh in Morocco. The reach of Manifest knows no bounds!

Their repertoire spans a wide range of genres, starting with up-tempo jive and swing numbers to get everyone on the dancefloor, and then seamlessly transitioning into pop, Motown, and soul music to keep the party going all night long. They carefully plan their setlist to appeal to audiences of all ages, ensuring that every guest is up and dancing.

But that's not all. Manifest can also provide musical entertainment for other parts of your event. Whether you need beautiful classical music for your wedding ceremony or smooth jazz tunes for the drink’s reception, they have the versatility and expertise to create the perfect ambience.

With years of experience performing at countless events and venues, Manifest has all the ingredients to make your event a resounding success. Their authentic covers of 20th-century classics will transport you back in time, and their unique vintage re-workings of modern songs in the style of Postmodern Jukebox will leave you in awe.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

Line Dancers (Supreme)
1 Star
It was the first time that the Club has used a similar service and the dancers were excellent and also able to flex their approach to meet our needs (as the stage space was limited and headset mics in short supply). We captured some fantastic photos that show just how much our employees enjoyed the event and all the dancers were friendly and helpful. It helped us to get into the party spirit and also set the Western theme/tone really well
