For more intimate productions and some international events, it may be possible to reduce the size of our touring crew.

What People Have Said...
After seeing Get Funked at Under The Bridge, I didn’t hesitate in booking them for Tesco’s Store Managers’ Corporate Event at the NEC. They brought the whole event to life and people talked about them for weeks afterwards!
They are incredibly professional and are loads of fun. I would without doubt book them for my next event!
Denise Wells, Tesco – NEC Birmingham

We are so pleased to be able to recommend Get Funked to our clients. We last had them for a big event at The Four Seasons in Dubai in 2015: “Polina in Wonderland”. Visually their show was incredible and their sound was of the highest quality. They interacted with Polina and her guests and they left a lasting impression on everybody. Get Funked and special guest CeeLo Green entertained guests right into the early hours of the morning. It was fantastic!
Marina Kiss, Creative Producer at Renovatio Ent – The Four Seasons Dubai

What a difference a live band makes and Get Funked is one of our favourites.
For the last 7 years they’ve been creating a great vibe at Supernova and our clients continue to enjoy their original delivery and lively performances.
Di Bailey, Director of Planit Events

I have been working with Martyn and Get Funked for the past couple of years and as bands go there is absolutely nothing better on the circuit. The musicians are unbelievable at what they do and I get nothing but amazing feedback about the band. Not only that, they are also great people to work with.
Louise Perry, Creative Director at Louise Perry Weddings

Get Funked put on a fantastic performance for my husband’s 50th birthday party. The dance floor was full all night and the show has left a huge impression
on all our guests.
Denise Coates CBE, Chief Executive of Bet365

We’ve been working with Get Funked for 7 years. They are phenomenal, incredibly professional, at top of their game and have worked on many high profile international events for us. I can’t recommend them enough and thank you Martyn for years of loyal service. We look forward to many more years of events with you!
Archie Archer, Managing Director at Contraband International

From an event organiser’s perspective, Martyn and the Get Funked Band are undoubtedly some of the most organised, flexible and professional entertainers I have had the good fortune to work with. Whether it be performing at a wedding with Ella Henderson or a showpiece finale for a FTSE 100 client event.
Mark Tilley, Director of Palette Events, Alexandra Palace – London

Apart from being fabulous, engaging musicians that were enjoyed by absolutely everyone, we also very much appreciated the outstanding professionalism of Get Funked.
It was refreshingly simple to work with Martyn and the band.
Angela Kipling, Managing Director of Kipling Events, the Zappeion – Athens

The event went superbly well and the band were amazing – the floor was filled from the first song right to the last – I just felt sorry for the DJ after who had to try and get people back on the dance floor. They were a really nice group of people too as I have experienced some bands before who are real divas and don’t make it easy for the event organiser, but your guys were a breeze to deal with and very self-sufficient. Thanks again for all your help and we look forward to working with you and the band in future.
Nick Hilditch, Zest Events

We used Get Funked for our 25th wedding anniversary two weeks ago. They were absolutely incredible! Dance floor packed all night and we would have paid to go see them. Highly professional. First class musicians and vocals. wow wow wow!!
Denise Ballard, The Belfry

Martyn – THANK YOU – your band and you were beyond incredible. I trusted you from the moment I met you at Alice House that you would make our day amazing, but I couldn’t have imagined how talented, slick, professional and awesome you guys were – out of this world – and all our friends and family can’t stop raving about you!! Let me know whatever I can do to endorse, help you guys out – it would be such a pleasure to give something back (feels off balance at the moment) thank you again! xx
Olivia Godrey, Four Seasons, Hampshire

Get Funked were without a doubt one of the best parts of our wedding day! Having struggled to find a quality, contemporary band suitable for our occasion, we were thrilled with the standard of Get Funked. The dance floor was always full, the crowd LOVED the cool setlist which missed new and old, and the way the band got guests involved…we didn’t want it to end!! A number of our guests have asked for the bands details for their own weddings and we would definitely book them again!
