Customer questions

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

Not before but between sets, yes.

How much time do you need to set up?

40 - 45 minutes

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, all except a PA and mixer.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
