About

Metropolis is a unique blend of the UK's finest session musicians. With years of unparalleled experience Metropolis is guaranteed to take any corporate event or private party to the next level. Backed up by business-like efficiency and attention to detail, they provide the total live music solution.

Metropolis is one of the finest session collectives around. If you’ve ever been to the o2 Arena, a West End show or just had a look in your CD collection the chances are you will have seen or heard one of these musicians. This, coupled with an understanding that any event takes months of meticulous planning, means that Metropolis’ attention to detail is second to none.

Metropolis has a proud association with Entertec Professional Audio who are sub-contracting specialist professionals for aspects such as sound, lighting and logistics.

As well as music for the party itself, Metropolis also supplies all other related acts. A DJ, cocktail pianist, Rat Pack tribute, string quartet, harpist…. may also add that extra little bit magic.

Formed in 2000, Metropolis has an impressive and diverse client base spanning everything from corporate events, festival appearances, charity balls, club dates, weddings to private parties both at home and abroad. By booking Metropolis you will be assured a great event.

Metropolis perform in a variety of formats and are extremely experienced at supplying the right sized band for the right event. 12-15 piece bands are very common for any company seeking the big corporate look, however an 8 or 9 piece band may be more suitable for a more intimate private party.

Where are they based?

The band are based in London but are willing to travel.
