BIOGRAPHY
The South West Bounce is one of Bournemouth’s most well-rounded party bands covering the best in pop and soul with a delightful sprinkling of RnB and hip-hop party songs. Their specialty lies within the pop genre but they also have lots of other epic songs that are crowd pleasers and keep the dancefloor full all night long. The South West Bounce comes as an 8-piece band, their full lineup is lead vocals, keys, guitar, bass, drums, and a brass section of trumpet, sax, and trombone. The band can also downsize to a 4-piece lineup with lead female vocals, bass, guitar or keys, and drums. Clients are regularly blown away by the overall impact of the band’s performance, with clients regularly “over the moon with their exceptional performance!”
The South West Bounce have individually been filling dancefloors for quite some time now, which means you can count on them to carry out a slick and professional operation from start to finish. They’re also well-versed at reading the room and will really put their all into getting that party going from the very first song.
The band is fronted by Rebecca, their absolutely fantastic vocalist who has experience performing in front of huge crowds all over the world. Rebecca’s vocal tones sit perfectly on sweet first dances, current pop chart toppers, and those golden classics. Rebecca, who studied Creative Musicianship at BIMM in London, has toured the world on cruise liners and been an integral part of show teams across the UK and abroad. She has also performed in Barcelona, Gran Teatre del Liceu, and off-strip cabaret shows in Las Vegas, and has an impressive number of performances at festivals across the country, such as IOW festival and Reading and Leeds.

Rebecca is supported by Will on guitar, Josh on bass, Stuart on keys, Ed on drums, and their full brass section with Becky on trumpet, Eve on sax, and Steph on trombone. Collectively they have all studied at some of the most prestigious musical educational facilities in the UK and around the world, including the British Institute of Modern Music, Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, Hochschule für Musik Franz Liszt Weimar in Germany, and BIMM in Brighton and London. Because of their ability and talent, the band members are full-time musicians being booked on tour or called in to record with major artists. So you can book with total peace of mind knowing that these are some of the most in-demand players in the music industry and that you truly can expect to have the cream of the crop at your event.
The South West Bounce’s band members have played with the likes of Mark Letteri (Snarky Puppy), Pee Wee Elis (James Brown), Ronan Keating, Krystal Roxx, and Punchdrunk; have performed at; Wembley Arena, Bestival, Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Amsterdam Melkweg, Lusty Glaze, Shindig Festival, The London O2, SSE Arena Belfast, Edinburgh Playhouse, Usher Hal, they have toured the UK, Ireland, Norway, Switzerland, Barcelona, and USA; have headlined many festivals with tributes including Bowie & Meatloaf; have done residencies at The Royal Albert Hall with Cirque Du Soleil; and can be seen and heard in BBC Good Omens, Maleficent 2, ITV’s new years celebration for the Lionesses’ win. I think you’ll agree that they've more than earned their stripes.
Rebecca leads the way in The South West Bounce as she belts out the band's varied repertoire, from artists such as Dusty Springfield, Kelis, Queen, and Dua Lipa. The band has a repertoire of over 100 songs covering the 1950s to the current top 40, and specialises in pop and retro pop, though their repertoire also covers funk, soul, RnB, hip-hop, disco, glam rock, rock, and indie.
The South West Bounce welcomes you to tailor the setlist for your big day. For a standard 2x60 mins or 3x40mins performance you can select up to 32 songs from the band’s 100 song repertoire, and the band will endeavour to accommodate all of your requests, given a month’s notice. For short-notice bookings, you are still very welcome to send over your suggestions, and as always, the band will do their utmost to accommodate as many requests as possible. The South West Bounce is also very happy to learn an ‘off the menu’ song request for you, for example, a first dance or your favourite song.
Upon booking, you will have a dedicated band manager as your point of contact to ensure the band is 100% on the same page as you well in advance of your event. Having this point of contact means you can count on excellent, fast, friendly, and warm communication at all times. It also means that come the big day every single crease will be ironed out and it will mean smooth sailing for both client and band alike.
All in all, The South West Bounce are a very friendly and flexible bunch and take great pride in providing excellent musicianship and creating a really fun atmosphere wherever they go. The band has a big long list of songs spanning different genres and decades for you to pick from and can play complimentary playlist music (which you are welcome to tailor) before, in-between and after live sets until curfew. The band can be on site for up to 7 hours, or until midnight as standard. They are happy to accommodate early arrivals before 5pm and late stays after midnight if needed too. The band is also able to provide a band member DJ-ing should you wish to have a live DJ before, between, or after band sets. The band brings a full PA and lighting rig with them wherever they go, so all you need to do is book the band and you can tick the entertainment off your to-do list in one fell swoop because The South West Bounce will have you covered.
If you've any questions about the band and what they offer please don't hesitate, they’ll be more than happy to help.
