What to expect

The band will arrive with sufficient time to set up, sound check and have completed these items prior to your even starting. From your initial enquiry to the day itself, you will deal with our band manager, Matt, who both manages and plays in the band. You will have this face to face contact on the day, to ensure that everything is in place and runs smoothly. We're flexible, so if times need to slightly change (speeches, auctions etc can sometimes be longer than planned), we're on hand to be ready to start earlier or later than planned. At the end of the night, we'll pack up following our performance, and leave the venue and performance area tidy and at all times through your event will work with the upmost professionalism. Prior to your event, Matt is on hand to help with any finer details - any DJ playlists, additional requirements for songs, microphones for speeches, additional musicians if booked at a later stage. If you need to meet to discuss arrangements, we can meet at the venue and answer any questions and agree what goes where, when, how etc. Matt is also on the end f the phone and email to answer any questions, send details (for example, your venue may need to see insurance and PAT documents) whenever is needed. Finally, and most importantly, we're there to get the party started, get people up on the dance floor and ensure you and your guests have a great night!

FAQ

Q: How long does setup take? A: Usually around 60 minutes, but can vary based on a number of factors. For example, if the function room/space is upstairs, it will take longer to unload than if we can pull right up to the door on the same level. We aim to be complete within an hour, subject to access, but can be discussed at time of booking if you have any concerns over difficult or late access. We're flexible!
Q: What are your space and power requirements? A: We've played in a number of different sizes of stage and playing area. However, for the 6 piece line up, the 'rule of thumb' is to have approximately 5m x 4m space, if available. Again, please discuss this with us so we can advise. We can also visit the venue if needed, or indeed we may know the venue already and so will know what space is available for a band.
Q: Do you take requests? A: We do. Generally, we make our set lists from our back catalogue of songs but we do consider requests. We do provide 1 free song per booking (arranged and played for you), but if you have a couple more, just let us know. We may have time to arrange these for you, but will let you know.
