Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
Aisha Khan and the Rajahs always can perform as anything from a 5-7 piece. At minimum, the line up will include Vocals, acoustic bass, drums, tenor sax and guitar. We can add baritone sax to this and also piano for the full sound.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know and we will do our best to accomodate any changes. Please give us as much notice as possible.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Sorry, not at the moment, though it's something we are looking at for the future.
How much time do you need to set up?
Ideally we would like to set up between 1-1.5 hours before the guests/audience arrive.
Can you roam around while you perform?
Unfortunately not. the band needs to perform together for the unity of the sound and it is very difficult to roam with some of the larger instruments, say acoustic bass.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event, with a couple of tweaks if need be.
Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?
PA and lighting is not included in our quotes. We can supply a PA but it would be at extra cost.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The feedback we've often received is that people love the quality of the music and vocals and the authenticity of what we do. They also enjoy the atmosphere we create and the energy and presentation of the whole act. The original material that is part of our set is extremely popular, coupled with our ability to do excellent cover versions.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
Most recently, we have done a two week tour of Spain over seven different cities, playing at venues like Peter Rock in Valencia and Gruta 77 in Madrid. We have also played at many London and UK venues and festivals.
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
We love all the great classic Jazz and Blues singers, especially wome like Bille Holliday, Sarah Vaughan, Ruth Brown and Lavern Baker. There are many more we adore!
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
With this particular band, it would have to be headlining at the Screamin' festival in Calella, Spain.
