Fundraising Charity Band

Professional function band ‘Punch The Air‘ have performed at many fundraisers and charity events throughout the years since we formed in 2013. Yes, we really have been doing this together for over a decade now. In that time we’ve helped raise large amounts of money for great causes such as Water Aid, Rotary, Teenage Cancer Trust and Scouts. Since forming in 2013 we’ve helped change peoples lives and supported improvements to the community and world environment. As a fundraising charity band we’ve helped schools raise money for new gym & musical equipment and hospitals raise money for expensive new machines. Contact band leader Andy Starkey from ‘Punch The Air‘ to check on price and availability as soon as possible to hire a charity band for a charity event.

Pricing – Charity discounts

We reserve up to 3 dates a year that we can offer a 10% discount off our usual price for charity and fundraising events. Depending on where and when your event is taking place and what time we need to arrive can affect the fee we charge. Being a very busy professional party band it’s also possible that we may have already filled our discounted dates for this and even next year. But do please still get in touch with us on the contact form below as we can still offer you a very competitive price. We can literally perform anywhere, as can be seen from the below video where we were performing live on the back of a moving lorry for charity. How many other live bands can say they’ve done that for charity eh?

Helping you keep your costs down

‘Punch The Air‘ are a completely self contained fundraiser & charity band. Included in our fee we will provide a state of the art PA system and lighting, DJ services in-between and after we finish our live performances. Our prices start are very competitive within Staffordshire. You can even use our PA system and microphones at no extra charge for your speeches, presentations and raffles after we have finished setting up. We want to help you raise as much money as possible and keep your expenses down.

Note: If you are holding your event in a large scale venue such as a town hall, civic hall or similar then additional fees will be incurred for hiring in extra PA, lighting, sound engineer and a separate DJ.

What sort of music will ‘Punch The Air’ perform as your fundraising charity band?

You’ll have lots of different aged guests at your fundraiser and all of them will have different tastes in music. ‘Punch The Air’ believe that all your guests should be able to enjoy themselves all night long which is why we perform as an indie rock cover band & “Something for everyone” styled live sets. We’ll play a fantastic range of very well known music from present day all the back to the 1950s in a pop/rock style by bands like George Ezra, The Killers, Queen, Amy Winehouse, The Beatles and Oasis. We don’t play anything too obscure, too loud or too heavy so everyone can enjoy our performances. View our full repertoire.

Our aim is to help keep your guests happily participating and donating during your event. We want everyone to have smiles on their faces the entire time we’re with you.
