Barnsley, South Yorkshire
Oompah Pah Oompah Pah is how our parties go with lots of modern hits and games with a few give-aways. Great fun with Bavarian Wunderbar!
A brilliant show, a fun, interactive and lively event which has been described as ‘the best people have been to.’
We play everything from Sweet Caroline to YMCA and Simply the best to Seven Nation Army. Of course, these singalongs are complimented all of the cheese and 80’s/90’s hits that you desire. We are former British Army musicians, so we know thing or two about commitment and hard work. Above all, we just love entertaining and would love the chance to play for you and of course your guests.
The Players
We are former British Army Military Musicians and are thus all ex professional players
Gary our Tuba player is also our own in-house music arranger which means that if you have a special song, we can work to reproduce it for you. Not many bands can offer this and so we consider it our defining USP. Add to all this our amazing brass and sax section which boasts a world class trumpet player, a drummer who works on West End Shows, a star tenor saxophonist, a superb horn player and compere and our vocalist Joe who has a style of his own and a voice of velvet. Everyone loves his youthfulness and energy.
The Music
These are generally a 45 to 50-minute set with games and vocal songs for all to join in for example. we do however, when we break, leave you with our sound system which either you can run your Spotify list through or we can play ours. This means that there are no awkward gaps in music.
Equipment
Your booking will include a full professional speaker system which uses individual wireless mics for the players. We simply ask that we have access to regular electrical systems and not a generator. We also bring our own lighting rigs. All of our equipment is first class and PAT tested of course.
Booking us
Should you decide to book us, we will be in contact all the way and offer Zoom/Teams virtual meetings as well as telephone calls. Flexibility and communication are really very important to us, just as much as our clients are important as well. Please do get in touch and ask away any questions you may have but also, don’t hang around when booking as we really do get booked up.
All good wishes

Rated ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Absolutely outstanding performance. The band made our event, great performances, fun games and interaction with the audience. Could have asked for better. Will be booking again.
The band performed at our private Christmas function, which was Bavarian themed. From start to finish they were very accommodating and professional. Their presence made a huge difference to the quality and enjoyment of our guests, especially in the way that they interact with others during their performances. All of the feedback from our event organisers and all of our guests was exceptional. We would book them again and would happily recommend them.
The band were amazing from start to finish. They really helped rouse the crowd and keep them occupied throughout the set. A big thank you Louise and the band.
An outstanding band who were prompt and polite at all times. Nothing was too much trouble and the games that they led were really funny and got everyone up and out of their seats. The music was a good choice with traditional bavarian and also some hits like Sweet Caroline
