The KickBacks – Ireland’s Most Popular, Most Heavily Booked & Undisputed

No.1 Alternative Wedding Band 2026–2027

 

The Kickbacks are Irelands’ most successful, established alternative wedding/function band. They are made up of Irelands top session musicians. They are a four piece band that deliver alternate songs for your wedding/event. Songs from the 80s/90s/00’s that are guaranteed to get everybody up on the dance floor. A couple of songs they cover are from bands such as The Cure, Jamiroquai, Prince, Arctic Monkeys, Queen. There’s a mixture of all genres for everyone. This band provides a unique experience, as they are accomplished musicians and create a live band atmosphere as there are no tracks, just pure musicianship.

This isn’t just another wedding band – this is a super-group of Ireland’s absolute elite session musicians hand-picked from the very top of the live music scene. These are the same players who have shared arenas and TV stages with Gary Barlow (Take That), Sinéad O’Connor, Olly Murs, Andrea Corr, Don Baker, The Script, Westlife, and countless global icons. They bring that big-stage energy, precision and charisma to every single wedding, making each night feel like a headline concert.

At the heart of the band is Sarah Michelle – lead guitarist and genuine YouTube superstar withtens of millions of views worldwide for her jaw-dropping, technically insane guitar solos that have stunned legends like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. When Sarah rips into a solo live, phones come out and jaws hit the floor – it’s pure rock-star magic that elevates the entire night to another level.

The KickBacks are the ultimate alternative Irish wedding band: four ridiculously talented musicians who refuse to play it safe. Their setlist is an explosive, genre-defying rollercoaster – 80s classics, 90s & 00s anthems, current chart smashes, indie bangers, old-school rap throwbacks, rock monsters, and Irish party favourites** – all delivered with ferocious energy, flawless musicianship, and an infectious joy that’s impossible to resist.
