The ultimate wedding band for Cheshire weddings
From the historic city of Chester to the bespoke wedding venues around Knutsford and Wilmslow, Yubaba bring signature funk, soul and reggae to Cheshire’s finest venues
Bringing the party to Cheshire’s best venues
Whether you are getting married in Chester, Wilmslow or Knutsford, we’ve got plenty of experience playing across Cheshire and know many of the venues well.
With all of the band located within North Wales we are less than a 45 minute drive from Chester and 60 minutes from Wilmslow and Knutsford.
You can often find us performing live at The Opera Grill in Chester. Check our Live Events page to find out when we are next there.
The Old Palace, Chester - An incredible city centre gem where we've mastered the acoustics of the contemporary reception space. Our six piece lineup provides a high-energy backdrop that complements the venue’s mix of historic elegance and modern luxury perfectly.
Grosvenor Hotel, Chester - One of Cheshire’s most prestigious landmarks. We are experienced in handling the logistics of city centre load-ins here, ensuring a seamless setup in the ballroom so your guests can transition straight from the wedding breakfast to a packed dance floor.
Holford Estate, Knutsford - The ultimate rustic luxury setting. We are well versed in the layout of the Moat Barn and the gardens, providing a versatile sound that works just as well for a chilled outdoor afternoon set as it does for a high energy funk and soul finale.

The Sound Limiter Solution
We get it. Many venues warn you about having a sound limiter and it can leave a worry about how that will affect your evening entertainment.
Here’s the good news - it’s nothing we haven’t dealt with before! We have worked hard to create as quiet a setup as possible. We run a silent stage with no amps and use in ear monitoring to reduce our volume. In addition, we have a wireless setup that allows us to monitor how loud we are from any point in the venue using a tablet.
