Are there any, that won't break the bank?

NO






MAYBE






I DON'T KNOW I CAN'T THINK WITH ALL YOUR SHOUTING

Couldn't be more clearer. Niteclub setting, lighting not too great. 580ex2 can focus on faces no problem, but some flashes can't.

Take a look at Godox AD360. It's cheap and powerful.
If you want 100% quality and support - go with Canon.
If you need more power, and same exceptional quality and support as Canon's - Profoto B2. Mounted on a ProMediaGear BBX or BBXL (my choice) it's an awesome system. With a 5" stud you can easily mount a 2' modifier like their OCF beauty dish w/diffuser.

Neuro is suggesting you avoid using caps lock.

+1 for 580ex II. That's a great workhorse flash, and you can probably get one used at a very reasonable price.
