Soul & Funk Wedding Band in Yorkshire & UK
Funk Ocean are a high-energy soul and funk wedding band delivering smooth, feel-good live music for weddings and events across Yorkshire and the UK.
Funk Ocean bring warmth, groove, and serious feel-good energy to every room they play. This is a band that makes guests smile first, then fills the dancefloor without anyone overthinking it. Smooth, confident vocals sit over tight, upbeat musicianship that feels polished, relaxed, and genuinely fun.
Their sound is rooted in classic funk and soul, with modern pop woven seamlessly through the set. Expect favourites inspired by artists such as James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Prince, Bruno Mars, Dua Lipa, and Amy Winehouse — the kind of music that works just as well for a packed evening party as it does for guests easing into the night.
Funk Ocean are also highly flexible. For daytime celebrations or early evening drinks receptions, they can perform as a smaller, stripped-back lineup to create a laid-back atmosphere. When it’s time to lift the energy, they scale up into a full live party band built to keep the dancefloor moving.
Having performed at weddings and events across the UK and Europe, the band knows exactly how to read a room and build momentum naturally throughout the evening.
For couples planning a wedding in Yorkshire or anywhere across the UK, Funk Ocean delivers live music that feels classy, upbeat, and effortlessly crowd-pleasing.
