How much time do you need for set up & sound check?
From the time we have access to the performance area we will take no longer than 1 hour to set up in any size or type of venue.
What are your standard performance times?
Our standard set is from 8pm until midnight
I'm not sure what my timings are going to be yet, is there any flexibility on the standard timings?
4 hours (including break) is the maximum length of booking we play as a band. Should you wish to extend this by 1 hour at either end we offer a DJ set option which is available at an additional cost.
How long do you take for your break? Are you able to play background music during this time?
We take 30min break in the middle of the event & a short comfort break later on. We always leave background music on when we’re not on stage 😊.
Can I pick the songs that you'll play on the night?
We select the songs we play on the night based on our experience of what songs we feel work best.
If you have any specific requests on songs from our set list, just let us know beforehand and we will try and accommodate as many requests as we can.
Will you learn our first dance if it's a song that you don't already know?
Yes absolutely! As long as its musically possible of course! 😊
Can you take any requests on the night?
If they’re songs from our setlist sure thing! Anything not from our setlist we will happily play the original track on our break or DJ set if you have booked one.
My venue has a 1am license, do you offer an extension to keep the night going until then?
We offer a DJ set for the hour of 12am - 1am, please get in touch for a quote.
Do you offer any other add-on options?
