We just wanted to say thank you so much for all the effort you put into making our party a fantastic evening…as people were leaving, they were all thanking us for a great night and saying how fantastic you were. We hope an opportunity arise for our paths to cross again in the future. Craig & Sarah.

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

Yes, iPod /DJ service can. D added for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually require approx 45 mins to 1 hour to set up and do a quick sound check.

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

Set lists are tailored to your needs and requirements, so we can definitively have a two-way discussion about what will work best for your event.
