Weddings & Functions

Something for everyone to dance to!

As an experienced entertainer, I know exactly how to get a party going!!

Carl Sinclair Wedding Entertainer

Drawing on my extensive repertoire, I can read an audience and play songs that are guaranteed to get your guests up dancing and singing along. I always ensure that my song choices appeal to all ages, resulting in a performance that will give a truly memorable night!

My piano based band is a unique concept compared to an average covers band, putting our very own spin on songs, building up a great party atmosphere and giving our clients a completely different entertainment experience.

  • Over 15 years’ experience of wedding & party performances.
  • Available to travel anywhere in UK.
  • Highly skilled musicians.
  • Mini grand-piano shell supplied as standard (space permitting).
  • Perfect mix of pop covers from 60's to the present day. Rock, pop, soul and more to get your guests up dancing!
  • First dance of your choice.
  • 3 x 40 min up-tempo live sets.
  • Manned DJ service for in-between.
  • Announcements to ensure smooth running of the night.

Band Line Ups

I use a small circle of some of the best professional drummers, saxophonist and bassists in the business. We can tailor the band size and music repetoire to suit your event, venue or budget.

Duo
Piano & Drums (Standard)

Carl Sinclair Live Music for Parties and Bars

Simple but extremely effective! The duo is great for smaller budgets and restricted space. For years now, my venues have booked just piano and drums - knowing we can comfortably entertain a room of 400 people or more.

Listen to these tracks for example of this line up.

Trio
Piano, Drums & Saxophone

Carl Sinclair Live Music for Weddings and Parties

The most popular option! Again, still great for smaller budgets and restricted space. The addition of Saxophone is perfect for adding amazing solos and giving the duo a third musical dimension!

Listen to these tracks for example of this line up.

Four Piece
Piano, Drums, Sax & Bass

Carl Sinclair Four Peice Band for Weddings and Parties

The complete band line-up. The addition of bass is a fantastic visual feature and adds a deep bottom end to the sound. My bassists use both Double Bass and Electric Bass, effortlessly switching from one to the other depending on the song’s requirements.

Listen to these tracks for example of this line up.

About the night

Standard playing times are a choice of 3 x 40 mins, or 2 x 1 hours.

I bring all my own equipment such as: Full PA system; portable digital keyboard; drums, microphones and lighting - you won’t have to supply anything! Set up times are also quick, taking less than an hour to set everything up!

I’m happy to work along side a DJ but included as part of the entertainment, I also offer to play disco music via a laptop for in between sets. This saves you having to hire a DJ separately to myself. The music is always soulful, funky, and more importantly, aimed to get everyone up dancing! With hits from Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Cee Lo Green, Beyonce, Rihanna and The Black Eyed Peas - you’ll find it hard to remain seated! Alternatively, I’m happy to discuss your own musical requirements.

I specialise in wedding entertainment so whether it’s announcing the cutting of the cake, or learning your special first dance song, nothing is too much trouble - just ask!

Carl is an amazing pianist, singer & entertainer and brings the room alive with his music. Everyone was on their feet dancing all night and kept saying how brilliant they were. I just hope he is still playing in another 10 years time so I can book him again for my 50th"
