Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
We can perform as a fiddle/guitar duo. For ceilidhs or a bigger sound, we provide a 4 piece band with fiddle, guitar, drums and bass.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
If timings change, that's no problem! Just let us know as early as possible :)
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes
How much time do you need to set up?
We only need 30 minutes to set up as a duo. For a ceilidh band, we'll need an hour.
Can you roam around while you perform?
Yes - we can play and sing acoustically, completely unplugged!
Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?
Yes
Can you learn song requests before the event?
Of course, we are open to suggestions. Drop us a message and we'll chat this through!
