Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

We pride ourselves on our ability to read the crowd and keep the party going all night long. Our clients also love our stage presence and how we interact with the crowd, making everyone feel included in the party.

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

We played corporate parties for Argos, Barclays Bank and the World Scout Association. Our members have performed alongside artists and acts such as Ellie Goulding, Train, Blue & Florence & the Machine

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

We strive to make sure the line-up you see is what you get on the night. We do have pre-auditioned 'dep' musicians available in case a band member falls ill or is unavailable. As a professional band, our reputation means everything so you can be confident that all of our players are of a very high level.

Do you have different line-up options?

Our main line-up is the 3-piece, but we can also perform as a 2-piece Acoustic duo.

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

We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run-up to the event just let us know.

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.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!”

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 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?

Our PA and lighting system is included in your quote alongside professionally mixed music in the set breaks.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes, we are always happy to learn and prepare 1 or 2 songs for all of our clients!

The Stallions played at our 60th birthday party and were excellent - they judged the music really well, were excellent instrumentalists and singers and really nice people to deal with. They made adapted to a small area and I would highly recommend them and would book them again without hesitation

The Stallions performed at our wedding and we were hugely impressed. The guys are excellent musicians and are full of energy - our dancefloor was always full of people dancing. The band learnt our first song request which we greatly appreciated. They had also considered which songs we wanted to be played and which ones we didn’t. They were punctual, polite and professional - I’d have no hesitation in recommending them to others interested in hiring an upbeat high-tempo band. Thanks guys!
