About


About the Band
From providing the entire musical entertainment for Sir Norman Wisdom's birthday bash, to accolades from Jools Holland and former The Beatles manager Allan Williams, this is a band who's star quality will set your party apart and provide a real talking point.

Richard, (bandleader of Chapter Four) is one of the most respected guitarists of his generation. Playing lead, rhythm and bass simultaneously he has taken Chapter Four around the world, appearing with jazz funk mammoths Courtney Pine and Dennis Rollins from Jamiroquai. A consummate professional, as leader of Chapter Four he appears at the most prestigious venues, including Sir Terence Conran's Bluebird Club in Chelsea, The Hi-Fi and Cavern Club, performing classic songs from 60's-today and original songs.

Credentials
Being full-time, professional musicians, all of the Chapter Four members as part of their careers have performed on the albums of and toured with some of the world's most varied artists: Jools Holland, Fontella Bass, Lionel Ritchie, The Stranglers, Corinne Bailey Rae, Cherry Ghost, Lily Allen, The Ting Tings, The Christians, The Cinematic Orchestra, The Coral, Nate James, M People, John Squire (Stone Roses), The Average White Band, Embrace, Sam Brown and Elvis Costello include a few.

The Elvis Costello tour ended with a live performance on 'Friday Night with Jonathan Ross'. The band have also been the subject of a prestigious BBC jazz feature.

Competition
Chapter Four have always knocked out the competition wherever they go: When Richard was aged just 20 his staggering talent won him places in the finals of both the 'Young Jazz Musician of the Year' show (Hosted by Jools Holland) and beat 60,000 hopefuls to the 'Acoustic Guitarist of the Year' finals at Wembley. Patrick (drums) won the 'North West Drummers Alliance' competition, which led to a Radio 3 feature.

Chapter Four were lovely from start to finish - they were more than happy to learn a song for our first dance they didn't normally play, they had loads of energy on stage, and they kept me up to date throughout the night, and we're really helpful and flexible considering some last minute timing changes we had in the evening. The songs were really well sang, and got people up dancing. All my favourites were played and were no trouble whatsoever by Richard and the team - was really impressed, and would definitely recommend.

This was a last minute booking and Warble were really helpful in securing us a great band. The bands communication throughout was excellent, they turned up bang on time and were set up and ready to go with the minimum of fuss. They were very happy to fit in with our delayed timings, very flexible, friendly and professional. Everyone at the party thought the band was fantastic and we all danced the night away. We'd definitely book them again for our next party, can't fault anything about the whole process and performance, thanks very much guys.

Had Chapter 4 as our resident party night band during December - this was our first Christmas season as a new business and WOW were they the ticket! All feedback from guests was brilliant, a really professional, low maintenance band out for a good time to ensure the best possible guest experience.

The band were great and really friendly. Although the venue was small and intimate the band handled the surroundings well and the night was enjoyed by all. The band were running late due to an accident closing the main roads to the venue however on arrival they set up in less than 20 minutes and were ready to play straight away. Very professional.

Chapter Four are the complete package! The planning was so easy, they have so many songs and also said we can pick songs if they don't have it on their list. They liaised throughout and they did everything they said they would and more. All the band members got involved prior to their set (my brothers band played the first set) and they honestly looked like part of the party :) The music was outstanding! The dance floor was full throughout the evening... I planned to have a chat with some evening guests but instead we all danced throughout... My 7 year old niece had my brothers guitar and genuinely believed she was playing it lol Chapter Four even thanked her on the microphone for being there bass guitarists... she won't ever forget that moment. Thanks you Chapter Four, we really hope to listen to your band again!

Chapter Four were AMAZING. They sang our first dance song which made it extra special and had our entire wedding party on the dance floor all night! They were absolutely fantastic!

Absolutely brilliant! The band completely exceeded my expectations. They were fully engaged with the party guests. They were really obliging to my specific requests performing songs that weren't on their set list. I happily recommend these guys. I chose Chapter Four after checking out their demos however I have to say although the demos are good they certainly don't do the band justice. They are brilliant live. If you're thinking of booking them don't hesitate too long you may miss out! Thanks guys for making my party so memorable!

We have had lots of comments on how good Chapter Four were and they totally made the night :) Thanks again guys!!

The initial query and booking process with Warble Entertainment was very easy. Chapter Four gave us a fantastic evening of music; every member of the group gave a superb performance. The early evening swing music hit just the right note with the volume at a level where people were still able to chat, the later evening sessions had people up and dancing. We could not recommend this group more highly.

Chapter Four were amazing. Brilliant band that filled the dance floor from the moment they started until the last song. It made the wedding for us to see everyone, of all ages, dancing the night away to our favourite songs. It was also really special to have them playing our first dance live. No request was too much for them, Richard was a delight to deal with and even the music between sets was perfect! We couldn't recommend them enough.

Excellent, professional experience throughout. Richard was a thoroughly delightful guy to chat to and work with, understand our needs, and we didn't really notice they were there on the day - a sign of a professional outfit. I would highly recommend to others in the future - many thanks to all in the band for giving us a memorable evening.
