About Hawaiian Party

Bring the summer to you with this energetic and authentic sounding Hawaiian band, available as 1 - 3 piece band.
Folk band
Yateley
Public liability insurance of £10 million

Bring your summer to life with a wide range of upbeat authentic Hawaiian songs and covers done in Hawaiian style for your workplace, hotel, pub, restaurant, beach or private parties! Get your crowd dancing along to irresistible rhythms whilst they are transported to the tropical beaches of the island nation all night long… Founder & leader Matthew Quilliam can perform on solo ukulele and vocals or with his traditional Hawaiian band of guitar, bass and percussion. A very mobile band and easy to squeeze into tight spots or walk around the party to mix with the crowd! We love bringing the summery islands of Hawaii to our audiences, getting those toes tapping and voices singing. We can play in a relaxed style to accompany drinks or provide a more upbeat party vibe to fill the dance floor. Hawaiian Party has been a popular band at various Hawaiian-themed events including parties, weddings and pub nights, as well as in concerts and showcases across the south of the UK from the Isle of Wight to Northampton. In addition to our live music, we offer a number of ukulele workshops for new or existing ukulele players. We can provide some collaborative, engaging and team-building workshops and activities for companies for corporate fun days, as well as parties and friends who are after something unique and special to try out. All of this before we can provide an hour or two of entertainment for a night that they won't forget. To further bring your event to life, we have a roster of Hawaiian dance troupes that we occasionally work with that we can recommend should you wish.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Audiences and guests love our creativity with our arrangements, combined with our energetic floor-filling rhythms. As for those who have booked us, we pride ourselves on providing an easy, efficient and flexible service.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We have loved performing in many private settings from the Isle of Wight to Northampton. In addition, we've performed at Windsor Ukulele Festival and in conjunction with Star Dancers UK.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We love all the old Hawaiian greats - Ernest Ka'ai, Peter Moon, Ohta San, Jake Shimabakuro - but also love to cover our favourite modern musicians in our classic style too, such as Robbie Williams, Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, Adele & more!

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes. We can offer our singing ukulelist as a soloist as our more basic package. We can add another musician or two such as bassist, guitarist or percussionist to add further dimensions to the music. Smaller groups are better for relaxing to, whereas the larger groups are better for filling that dance floor.

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

We always try out best to accommodate changes, though this is not always possible. Please remember that the more notice you can give us, the more likely we are going to be able to help!

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

We can provide music from a playlist of our favourite vintage tunes up to 15 minutes before and after the first and last set, as well as for the duration of our break(s). Please ask if you require any longer as an additional charge may apply.

How much time do you need to set up?

We will need at least an hour or two before the event in order to give us plenty of time to get ready. Our pack down is usually quicker. If we can, we will be set up before your guests arrive.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Short answer - yes! Slightly longer answer... Some venues are easier than others. If we are roaming around one room, we can use wireless microphones so that we can be heard no matter where we are. If we are travelling across a wider space or through different rooms, we prefer to go acoustically, meaning we'll only be heard in one area at a time.

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

Please do! We can play more songs than we can list here, so please ask if you have a request as it may be that we can already do it.

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

Yes, as is our set-up time. The only additional charges that may apply in relation to our equipment is if you require us to set up a long time before the quests arrive. A longer waiting period may incur an additional cost.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If we don't currently perform your favourite song, an additional £35 will incur for each song, with a minimum notice period of 30 days in which to learn the song.
