Guacamaya

Guacamaya is the most versatile function band in the North West. But Why?

We are the only band in the North West who performs Afro-Caribbean music, Afro-Cuban music, Reggae, Afro-beat, Balkan, Samba, Salsa, Calypso, Merengue, Drum ‘n’ Bass, and British/American pop all in one band. Performing all decades from 60’s to 2020’s charts.

The twist in this particular tale is they also play British and American pop bangers with a vivid Latin twist. Covering the likes of Gorillaz, Fatboy Slim, Anderson Paak, Stevie Wonder, The Specials, Bill Withers, Chaka Khan, Daft Punk and a whole heap more, Guacamaya go seriously hard and have the chops and the variety to please everyone in the room, no matter their age.

Guacamaya is there to make you dance all night long.

We are the perfect wedding band for a marriage between British families and Spanish/Italian/Latin/East European/Caribbean families.

We supply everything we need for an awesome-sounding and looking party:

We can provide a full PA system including subwoofer + 2 PA speakers + 1 PA Stage Monitors or In-ears + Microphones + Stage Lights for a crowd of 350 people max.
If you haven’t hire a DJ just yet, we will ensure our DJ will take all your disco requirements.
