Since 2011, Coffee Tone has been bringing energy, elegance and celebration to weddings, corporate events and private parties in France and abroad. More than just a cover band, Coffee Tone is a collective of professional musicians driven by one shared vision: turning every event into an unforgettable live experience.
Born in 2011: A Desire to Celebrate Through Music
Coffee Tone was founded in 2011 with a clear ambition to create a premium live music experience adaptable to every type of event while maintaining a strong artistic identity.
From the beginning, the project was not built as an agency or a simple pool of freelance musicians. Coffee Tone was designed as a true collective, where musical excellence goes hand in hand with human connection and cohesion.
The goal?
To recreate that unique live “magic”: the energy flowing between musicians and audience, the shared smiles during a well-known chorus, the spontaneous groove that makes a dance floor come alive.
A Musical Identity: Soul, Pop & Funk
Coffee Tone’s DNA is rooted in three core styles:
-
Soul
-
Pop
-
Funk
These genres shaped the band’s sound from the very start. Over time, the repertoire has expanded to include R&B, hip-hop, dance, gospel, jazz and Latin influences — always with the same commitment to quality and authenticity.
Coffee Tone focuses on reinterpretation rather than original compositions. The strength of the band lies in delivering powerful, refined and festive versions of timeless classics and modern hits, carefully selected to match the atmosphere of each event.
A Collective of Over 20 Professional Artists
One of Coffee Tone’s defining features is its collective structure.
Today, the group brings together around 20 professional musicians and performers who share the same artistic standards and values. This organization allows Coffee Tone to:
-
Offer various line-ups (from an intimate duo to a full live orchestra)
-
Adapt the size of the band to each event
-
Maintain consistent musical quality
-
Perform multiple events simultaneously
This flexibility ensures reliability while preserving the unique Coffee Tone identity.
Rooted in the Lyon Region
Based in the Lyon region, Coffee Tone has grown within one of France’s most dynamic cultural and economic hubs.
Lyon’s vibrant event scene — from luxury weddings to high-end corporate gatherings — provided the perfect environment for the band to refine its craft and build a strong reputation locally. Over the years, Coffee Tone has become a trusted live band for weddings and corporate events in Lyon and the surrounding region.
This strong local presence allows the group to combine proximity, responsiveness and in-depth knowledge of prestigious venues — while also performing throughout France and internationally.
From Lyon to International Events
Although deeply rooted in the Lyon area, Coffee Tone regularly performs across France and abroad.
The band accompanies:
-
Luxury weddings
-
Corporate galas and product launches
-
Private celebrations
-
Public concerts
-
Cocktail receptions and premium events
Each performance is tailored to the audience and the moment, ensuring that the energy, elegance and musical intensity always feel perfectly aligned with the event.
More Than a Band: A Live Experience
What truly sets Coffee Tone apart is not just its repertoire — it’s its philosophy.
-
Putting people at the heart of every performance
-
Creating connection and shared emotion
-
Designing each show as a unique experience
-
Transforming events into lasting memories
Since 2011, Coffee Tone has continued to evolve, expand its repertoire and refine its approach. Yet its essence remains unchanged: celebrating life through live music.
And more than a decade later, the story is still being written — one event at a time.
