Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

We have 2 main option - 5 piece and the more compact 4 piece. Both work well, and we can expand as needed.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We try be as flexible as possible - normally it'll be 2x45 minutes within a 4hour window - but always try to fit in with your plans.

How much time do you need to set up?

We can be ready in a few minutes, but always recommend arriving 30 min to 1 hour before playing.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Absolutely ! We are at our best in parading you and your guests, or playing in the sunshine while you eat canapès and drink champagne!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

We generally decide on what songs to play in the moment, but happy to take a favourites list that we try to include in our set.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Generally we play acoustic, but we can discuss if PA needed.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes - although we normally charge extra - but does depend on the song - we know loads of songs, but obviously need to make sure the quality is top notch, so best to discuss.

A huge thank you to Boulevard Brass for playing at our wedding! The music was amazing to listen to and they're such professionals. It really set a party tone for our reception drinks and brought the party from the minute they started playing. They also look incredible in their maroon jackets -people got some great pictures. We had so many compliments from our guests!
