all our songs are rehearsed, slick and sassy and we purchase professional arrangements so that everything sounds big, fat, fun and energetic. We don't stand glued to a music stand or iPads - we learn our sets so we can then perform to the max and get out in the crowd & boogie about. If we have a horn section on, they use music as they are intricate harmonised arrangements - but they'll still also get their groove on and get in the crowd too at key points. Many bands claim to have 150+ songs in their repertoire, but we don't count 'busking or jamming' as 'in our repertoire', so we're a bit more fussy :)

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients constantly remark on our incredible energy & fun, how interactive/engaging we are with guests (& each other!) We're ALL on radio mics (bar the poor drummer!) so we can boogie, get in the crowd, whip up fun & energy on and off the stage, around the room. We put on a show visually with our great look & presence as well as all the huge floor fillers!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We've played many stunning places for a mix of weddings/corporates; Maldives, Oman, Shanghai, Mauritius, Bangkok, Rome, Barcelona, Montreux, Prague, Lake Como, Dubai, Siena, Paris & many more. Royal Ascot, Warwick Castle, Blenheim Palace, Silverstone, Kew, various Premier League football clubs, Park Lane hotels, castles, country houses, intimate barns/lodges

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We love to throw in a dollop of every era and genre so that we constantly appeal to a wide range of ages and dynamics, but always with maximum energy and fun and sass! Rock, pop, funk, soul, R&B, disco - we love it all! Anything uptempo and big energy to get the floor full!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Annually for Royal Ascot & play to thousands for the entire week, stunning New Years events eg Maldives, Mauritius, Dubai, huge festivals eg Cowes/CamperJam. Cyprus for the British Forces, supporting Madness at the Cardiff International Arena, the 80s revival featuring Rick Astley, Howard Jones, Katrina & The Waves, Bananarama, Midge Ure & many others.

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

We only use the musicians and singers from within our rehearsed and tried/tested ATeam. We have a large pool of 'family' that we use, and never just book random unknowns. All our gang have worked with the band (many for years and years!)

Do you have different line-up options?

We can go as small as a duo for acoustic, or for the party band a 4piece (although we prefer to keep this for midweek/Sunday where poss as it means we have to 'sack' many of our ATeam! We can 'pick and mix' so you have more singers, or percussion, or 1 horn, or a whole horn section, our wireless keytar, dancers - the options are extensive and versatile :)

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

We'll always try our best to flex and make things work. If they change dramatically we can offer you options to pay a bit more possibly to make it work but we'll always try and find a way to make it all work seamlessly and hopefully without incurring more costs

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

We can play your own Spotify list, or a general generic playlist that we have, which will run through the band PA, or you can book our DJ so you have it 100% covered

How much time do you need to set up?

Our standard reply is 2 hours, however, we can do it in as little as 45-60 where there is a limited window.

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

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're v.happy to chat through & make sure we find what works for your event and swap in/out some songs you love/loathe. We always want to give you our best and most showbiz performance. We can also do 2 hours straight.

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

Yes we provide absolutely everything we need, PA for up to 200, basic lights, radio mics (not tethered to cables/stuck in a corner!). We just need a space to play, plug sockets & we can provide the rest. We politely ask for a room to hang out/change etc, something to eat (maybe a plate from your buffet/soft drink - whatever is easiest while we are on site).

Can you learn song requests before the event?

We augment with track and all arrangements are professionally done (at costs) rather than just jammed. If you have a special song we can look into this & check if we can buy an arrangement. If it's a song we may never play again (eg not a mainstream floor-filler), there is a £40 fee to cover the arrangement/click track purchase. We'll always do our best :)
