Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

They love our fantastic live band fronted by your friendly neighbourhood ‘Afroman’ with an unpredictable infectious personality and two dynamic female vocalists, supported by four talented musicians. Creating a highly energetic, explosive and professional performance - infused with glitz, glam and flair to provide an unrivalled live music party atmosphere.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Our collective experience in the musical industry has lead us to take inspiration from a wide variety of artists. If we had to isolate some of the key influencers, they would be Bruno Mars, Stevie Wonder, Journey, Bon Jovi, Wild Cherry, RHCPs, The Black Crowes, The Noisettes and everything in between!

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

Since recording the promotional video, we have added an extra singer to the group which is the only difference. We can tailor who attends your event if you get in touch with us beforehand and let us know your preferences.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes, our main line-up is a 7-piece pop-rock party band that brings the stage presence you'd expect for a high energy event. Other options include a 3 or 4 piece acoustic line-up which is perfect for a more relaxed event. Each line-up has a different set-list, so message us to see which works better for your event.

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 in the run-up to the event just let us know with as much notice as possible and we'll quickly discuss the logistics and get back to you.

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 recommend that we be at your venue 2 hours before we are due to perform in order to set up the equipment. If we can arrive even earlier, that's a bonus and will help us fine-tune the PA system even further. 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. We offer an add-on to learn and add 3 new songs of your choosing to our setlist for £150 - for example a customised first dance song or an old-time favourite we may have not played before.

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

Our PA and lighting system are included in your quote. We have trusted colleagues with whom we hire the equipment. We usually require a minimum of 4 metres by 2 metres to perform, but if you could let us know the dimensions ahead of time, we will endeavour to work with what is provided.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

We offer an add-on to learn and add 3 new songs of your choosing to our setlist for £150 - for example a customised first dance song or an old-time favourite we may have not played before.
