Get to know us

Joyrider is a band with years of experience rocking venues, events and weddings up and down the country.

We pride ourselves on putting on an incredible show, that will get every up off their seat, singing and dancing, and make your event a night to remember.

We offer a variety of packages that can suit any occasion, and will happily work with you on every aspect of the evening to make it perfect.

Where we’re from

We’re based in Hertfordshire and regularly play at venues across the county, including St Albans, Baldock, Bedford, Stevenage, Hatfield, Hertford, Harpendon, Hemel Hempstead, Hitchin even as far north as Cambridge & Neots. There’s always opportunities to see us play live, so just ask us when we’re playing near you.

While we’re based in Hertfordshire, that doesn’t mean we won’t travel to you! We’ve often play events further from home so if you’re from a bit further afield we won’t let that stop us. We’re always happy to travel!
