I recently booked The Milo Max Band as a 5 piece band (for the second time). The professionalism during the planning and booking stages was a breath of fresh air. On the night, the band played both acoustic sets (great acoustic versions) and also the main dance sets. They were all so professional, and each so talented, and they ran the night perfectly. Will definitely continue to use them in the future. More...

Milo Max performed at our wedding in September 2023. This was the 3rd time I'd seen them perform live (they also performed at my sister's wedding and my parents' silver wedding anniversary), so we knew just how good they would be and they didn't disappoint! Ross was on top of every single little detail in advance of our day, and then Ben was excellent as lead on the day itself - including being super flexible to tweak the length of the 1st sets when the caterer brought out evening food 5 minutes early. The set was full of energy and the dancefloor was packed throughout - we've had so many comments from guests about how much they enjoyed the set. We cannot recommend them enough! More...

Milo Max played at our wedding in Sept 2023 and absolutely smashed it! On the run up to the event, Ross was superb. Answering any queries we had very promptly. He also liaised with our venue to ensure everything was arranged for the day. Their playlist was perfect and managed to get all of our friends, young and old, boogying on the dance floor (at the same time). Everyone loved the fact we had a saxophonist, and also Julie, who was on vocals and was simply incredible! They brought the party! My wife loved that they offered for her and her bridesmaids to go up and sing a Mamma Mia song together (Luckily Julie did most of the singing!) It was a really special moment for her with her girls and the photos of this are amazing - such a fun idea and nice touch. Would recommend Milo Max to anyone! More...

We booked Milo Max for our wedding reception and they were fantastic from start to finish. Ross was always on the other end of the phone or email if we had any questions and everything ran so smoothly. The band were brilliant and our first dance (performed by them ) was so so special. They were very accommodating as we had booked Bandeoke as a one hour set during the evening but this took over as everyone just wanted to sing (badly) haha! Would not hesitate to book again. Thanks for helping to make our wedding so memorable! More...

Milo Max were incredible - we booked their 5 piece band for our May 2023 wedding. The communication pre-wedding by Ross was professional, friendly and consistently well organised. On the day the band exceeded our expectations - the dance floor was absolutely packed all night long and that was solely due to the quality of music, songs and performance factor by Milo Max.

Wedding Music Bands

From my first contact with Ross from Milo Max it was clear that the band and their organisation was experienced and professional. All communication was clear and responsive and Ross was happy to discuss and advise on what would work best for our wedding evening party. We had an acoustic trio who were perfect for our venue size and played marvellous music which just hit the spot with our guests. The dance floor was never empty and the band was full of energy and clearly enjoyed performing. We had to re-organise out wedding twice due to covid and Milo Max were able to stay with us and accommodate all our changes which was fantastic. We would strongly recommend Milo Max! More...

We have been having a band at our annual Summer Street Party for a few years now. Thanks to our chief organiser Mr Peter Gotch - the man with a heart of gold. This year it was 20th anniversary of our street party and the highlight was the Milo Max Band. It was their first time at our street party and I must say their performance was full of energy and musical brilliance. We all loved it and no doubt best band we have had so far.

Q&As

It's hard work surviving in the music industry but we are compensated by dedicating our working life to our passion. However, it's not just performing the music that makes us happy: it's working with our clients to understand their requirements and live music wishes for their event, creating a bespoke musical experience for them and seeing it through to a great night that makes us ultimately fulfilled. The is really the big difference between amateur performers and professionals. We strive to do the very best job and to make our clients vision of a great event with fabulous live music and a filled dance floor come true - happy clients, great feedback and referrals make us ultimately the happiest.

It's often the best to follow your passion. It's the creative control. I also enjoy the flexibility & diversity of working with clients directly and representing my own service. I get to hand-pick my team and from our a decade of reviews on our website I hope my passion & dedication to our clients satisfaction is clear to all.

There are so many reasons. The market for live music is so diverse and the reality is that 95% of the market is comprised of amateur musicians, this includes most of the musicians on agent websites.
I have developed a professional live music service through Milo Max that represents a decade of hard work. We have done over 1400 shows across all types of events including two shows for Walt Disney in 2016, the later in the France. You wouldn't ask a lay person to check your teeth, you would go to a dentist. It's the same in any industry. Hiring Milo Max means hiring professional who really know what they are doing. The ability to understand and consult on your requirement and dreams, create & deliver a great live music experience, from preparation before the day, to delivery. This includes high spec equipment, top flight performers who know how to trouble shoot technical & interpersonal issues as well as adapt their performance on the fly to ensure you have the optimum experience.

Services

From 4 to 6 piece live band options
Standard 2x 60min or 3x 40min sets
Typical setup from 5.30pm, latest live band finish, 11.30/45pm
Basic DJ option included in standard package, other DJ options available to suit, standard finish midnight, with extension options
Lighting & sound package included in standard quotation
Addition lighting & sound options available
Speech mic service option

Great for setting the scene and creating a lovely warm atmosphere for:
1) the drinks reception at your wedding or other event before the main evening show or
2) for corporate parties as early evening intro music whilst your guests chat, drink their fizz and nibble on canapes;
3) for your afternoon BBQ!
