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

We are always flexible with timings to assist with events running smoothly. If there is a change then we just ask that in the run up to the event that we are informed and can therefore alter plans accordingly.

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

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and we actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional cost depending on additional time required.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1.5 - 2 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we require time to sound check and can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

Can you roam around while you perform?

Unfortunately no - this is not currently an option for any of our performances.

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

Our set lists are created by us learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have the best time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

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

Yes we provide all our own PA and lighting for events.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you for a maximum of 3 songs per event. If we feel that the song choice is not something might add to future sets then we may charge a fee of £20 to take into account rehearsal time etc.
