Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

Our standard line up is 2 trumpets, 2 trombones and cajon but we can come as a trio or even a bigger ensemble depending on the event if needed.

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

Of course, we are more than happy to provide a PA for in-between sets at extra cost to be discussed. We can provide a set-list to be played on the PA.

How much time do you need to set up?

As all we need is ourselves and our instruments we can set up quickly, within 15-30 minutes. If we are using a PA at the client's request then we will need a little longer.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Yes! We are a roaming brass quartet so have no set position.

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

Of course, we have a wide selection of songs to choose from and we are also happy to take song requests.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

We require up to 4 weeks notice if you are requesting songs.

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our clients have loved that we are entertaining, fun for all ages and are happy to suit their needs and requests. We want our clients to feel happy with the service we are providing and communication is key.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We have performed at the Old Street and Venn Street Records, Shoreditch and the RAF Club, Picaddilly, London for a Winter Wedding. We have also performed at: Anglesey Abbey, National Trust Cambridge Q-Vardis, Uxbridge Westwood Hall, Leeds

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We love all genres and try to play a something for everyone, whether it is The Proclaimers or George Ezra!

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

We hosted two nights at the Old Street Records and Venn Street Records, Shoreditch over the Christmas period, a fantastic event which got everyone in the party mood. We have also been resident musicians at Anglesey Abbey, National Trust for the past three years.

Wow what can I say, Thames Brass are fantastic and made our wedding even more special! I asked them to play and learn 3 songs, which they happily did. Definitely will be booking them again for any event I have, next year is a big anniversary for my parents and I will be asking them to play again but the only difference is I will request them for a longer time!
