About

The Institutions have been together since 2013 as a band and have performed over 390 gigs in that time, everywhere from a back garden party to stately homes, festivals and Large Corporate events . The secret behind our success is not just the fact we are best friends and play every week, but because we desire to deliver performances that make us feel good and that has kept the crowds dancing all night

How they work

The band suggests booking as soon as possible. However, it's best to book them no later than three or four weeks so they have adequate time to prepare. Typically, it takes an hour and a half to setup everything. They can do open-air acts and work additional hours if needed.

We have them play at our wedding just before the DJ come on and we didn't expect such a good response from our guests. The music was outstanding and the lights and bass were just amazing. I would be more than happy to see them again at a friend's wedding. We can't thank them enough!
