Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
We're very serious about delivering slick, stylish a capella singing. But we don't take ourselves too seriously!
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
We've performed in some very unusual places, including:
a distillery (Ardbeg)
a parliament (Stormont)
a gentleman's club (The Lansdowne)
a rowing club (Dorney Lake)
a golf club (Sunningdale)
an art gallery (The Green Man)
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Monty Python and Noel Coward.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
Performing to a packed audience at the Belfast Parliament (Stormont) was a great occasion! We raised a lot of money for charity that night.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
We try our best to be flexible so that your event can run as smoothly as possible. The best thing to do if there is an issue is to get in touch with us.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
We are an a capella group - it's just our four unaccompanied voices - so we do not provide any equipment.
How much time do you need to set up?
We are an a capella group - it's just our four unaccompanied voices - so we do not provide any equipment. That means we don't need much time to prepare. We like to have a little time in the space to warm up and refine our performance.
Can you roam around while you perform?
We sing close harmony and that requires us to sing close together. Occasionally we can break out and roam if there is a solo number.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Our set lists have been honed over time from our countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests enjoy an amazing time. That being said, we are of course open to having a chat to make sure we find what works for your event.
Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?
We provide no technical equipment as we are an a capella group - four unaccompanied voices.
