Freely bribed, taunt group honouring Queen perhaps (7,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tribute band

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'honouring queen perhaps' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'freely bribed taunt group' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'group' could be 'band' (band can mean a group of people) and 'band' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'tribute' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for tribute band that I've seen is " Group after another".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
