There is a big difference between having music at your event and having the right music at your event. A playlist keeps the background filled. A live function band fills the room with energy, gets people off their seats, and creates the kind of atmosphere where nobody wants to leave. If you are planning a wedding, a birthday party, an anniversary, or any kind of social occasion and you want the entertainment to be genuinely brilliant, Gospel Touch Choir has the function band for you.
We are one of the leading gospel choirs and function bands in both the UK and the USA, available for hire in London and across the country, as well as internationally. Whether you want soulful gospel harmonies, classic Motown grooves, R&B, pop, or jazz infused with gospel soul, our function band brings it all together in a live performance that gives your guests something to talk about long after the night is over.
What Makes Our Function Band Different
A lot of function bands play the songs. We play the room. Our musicians and singers are talented, experienced performers who know how to read an audience, build energy at the right moments, and deliver a set that feels alive from the first note to the last. The Gospel Touch Motown Function Band is a household name in entertainment, known for inspiring musicians and vocalists who have genuinely irresistible voices that get people onto the dance floor within seconds.
Our function band covers a wide variety of musical styles including Motown, R&B, pop, jazz, and gospel soul. We do not stick to one lane. We move between styles fluidly and build our sets around what works for your audience and your occasion.
Our Function Band Packages
We offer three clearly structured packages so you can choose the right level of performance for your event and your budget. Every package includes a selection of our most highly requested songs that you can choose from in advance, so the music on the night reflects your taste and your vision for the event.
Gold Package
Our Gold package is our most comprehensive function band offering. We provide a pianist, guitarist, saxophonist, and drummer alongside four singers, though the number of singers is negotiable depending on your requirements. We perform two sets of between 45 and 60 minutes each, covering both the ceremony and the reception. We also perform when your guests arrive and during cocktail hour at the reception, ensuring the music is present and perfectly pitched for every stage of your event.
Silver Package
The Silver package provides a pianist, guitarist, saxophonist, and drummer alongside three to four singers, again negotiable based on your needs.

This package gives you a full live band experience at a slightly more flexible scale, making it a great option for events where you want outstanding live music without the full Gold setup.
Bronze Package
The Bronze package provides three to four singers with backup music, giving you the power of live vocals supported by quality backing tracks for your reception.
