We’re not travelling from Cork or Dublin to cover your big night — Galway is our home market, and it shows in everything from how we read a Galway crowd to how we know the venues inside out.

What Galway Wedding Band Couples Get With The Elastic Band

Play List

We offer an eclectic, evolving playlist spanning Pop, Rock, ’80s, ’90s, Country, and authentic Irish Trad. This ensures every guest finds their rhythm, making your event an unforgettable party with music for all tastes and ages.

How Long

We provide 3 hours of exhilarating live music, ensuring your dance floor is never empty. Once our live set concludes, our professional DJ takes over, keeping the party going until your venue closes. This seamless transition means continuous entertainment for your guests, from start to finish.

Setup Time

We’re incredibly efficient. Once the stage area is clear for us, we only need 45 minutes to set up our equipment and be ready to perform. We work swiftly to ensure there’s minimal disruption to your event’s flow.

We Adapt To Your Venue

Every room in Galway is different — the acoustic of a ballroom at the Hardiman is nothing like a marquee in Connemara. We’ve played them all and we adjust our sound accordingly. No guesswork, no complaints from the venue the next morning.

DJ Service

Our professional DJ service keeps the party going until the venue closes. You can provide us with a list of your favourite songs to be sure your must-plays are covered, or simply leave it to us to read the room and keep your guests dancing with a perfectly curated mix.

Deposit

Booking with us is completely risk-free. We believe in making things simple, which is why we don’t require a deposit when you secure your date with us.

Why Galway Couples Choose
The Elastic Band

There are plenty of wedding bands available for Galway dates. Here’s the honest difference:

We’re local: We’re based in the West of Ireland. When you book us for your Galway wedding, you’re not paying travel fees for a band driving three hours from another province.

We know the venues: From the function rooms of Galway City to the intimate rooms of Connemara and the unique setting of the Aran Islands, we’ve played Galway’s top wedding venues and we know what each one needs.

We read the room: A Galway wedding crowd is different to a Dublin crowd, different to a Cork crowd. We’ve spent fifteen years learning exactly how to build a Galway dancefloor and keep it full.

We make it simple: No deposit. Easy communication. Your night sorted.

We cannot say enough good things about them, I am such an over thinker and planning our wedding really stressed me out. 
We were out one night talking to a couple about their wedding and they asked who did we book for a band. Turns out they had the same band and they confirmed we were in great hands. 
We were, Glen was brilliant for keeping in contact and giving us great options as my husband and I like music but would not be die hard fans of anything in particular. 
Our guests commented that they enjoyed the music. Most of them said that even when they needed a break from dancing they were able to sit, talk and listen to each other without the music being overpowering or too loud. 
The band even accommodated my cousin who enjoys entertaining the family with a few of our favourite songs. 
We had a great night and The Elastic Band played a big role in that. 
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your guidance and patience with us. 
We highly recommend The Elastic Band.

They were amazing from start to finish, their communication and attention was just perfect, Nothing was too much for them. They provided their band and Dj service which had our guests up on the floor all night long into the early hours! Could not fault them whatsoever! For upcoming couples we don’t hesitate to recommend this band as they are the best of the best! We will forever be thankful for such great entertainment for our wedding! Wishing them every success going forward! Andrew and Ciara.
