Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

The variety of our songs is what people most like. Also, we stick to well-known, popular songs.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Pubs, University (!), clubs, restaurants

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We play the songs we like no matter who the originating artists are. This gives us the most flexibility in our performances and is generally well liked by our audiences.

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

Christ Church University!

Do you have different line-up options?

Our line-up is a female vocalist with a guitar/backing singer. There is no variation on this.

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

No problem. Just let us know the day before.

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

Yes music can be provided (but no DJ)

How much time do you need to set up?

1 hour

Can you roam around while you perform?

Yes. We perform a mixture of acoustic and semi-acoustic songs. we can 'unplug' if necessary.

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

Within reason and with good warning! We have chosen our set lists to give the maximum amount of time to both ballads and up-tempo songs.

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

Yes. We need a minimum of 2m x 2.5m to work in.

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.
