Evolution were very professional and engaging. Playing all the right sort of music. Really contributed to the evening, so much so, that we have booked them for our ball next year.

Customer questions

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

Yes! We try to make sure the line-up you see is what you get on the night. We do have pre-auditioned 'dep' musicians available in case a band member falls ill or becomes unavailable. As a professional band our reputation means everything so you can be confident that all of our players are of a very high quality.

Do you have different line-up options?

Our main line up is 2 female Vocalists, Guitar, Bass Guitar & Drums. If required we can add keys to the line-up.

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

We know that things can change and we try to be flexible in the event of any changes to timings. It is always advisable to let us know the new details as soon as possible so that we can plan accordingly.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes we can. This is a popular request and one we provide for FREE. You are more than welcome to put together your own playlist that we can then run through the PA system.

How much time do you need to set up?

We need 1.5-2 hours to set up and sound check comfortably. When this is done we can set up some mood music through the PA to get the guests ready for our live performance.

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

We are always happy to discuss your requirements in order to put together a set list you will love and one that will make your event a memorable one. Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to keep the dance floor full.

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

Our PA and lighting system is included in your quote. We usually require a minimum of 2 sockets and an area of 12' x 9' to perform.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Even if a song isn't in our song list we may 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 which takes into account rehearsal times etc.
