Joel & Ben provided the entertainment at my 50th birthday party, which was a black tie event in a boutique hotel. The boys arrived early, were well prepared and were setup in no time. As well as being talented & skilled musicians, they read the crowd well and were truly fantastic. Both on the night and in the days following, everyone was raving about Joel & Ben. I unreservedly recommend them

We've had the absolute pleasure to have Ben and Joel play at our wedding during the reception. From lending us their keyboard for the ceremony to setting up to play at the drinks reception, to playing beautifully, they've been incredible throughout the day. We thoroughly recommend them for your event, whatever it might be. Ben and Joel, thank you once again for coming all the way to York and honouring us with your presence and lovely music at our wedding.

Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

We have a few different line up options which we tailor to your exact needs. These range from instrumental jazz duos (saxophone and piano) to both vocal and instrumental trios (either; singer, saxophone & piano or saxophone, piano and double bass) to full bands including our drummer.

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 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 in between our sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

We have a really quick and subtle set up, usually taking around 15 minutes, but we always allow for extra time. If you would like us to be set up before guests arrive, please ask for this in your booking.

Can you roam around while you perform?

No, we do not offer this service.

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

Absolutely. Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best. 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?

Yes, our PA sound equipment is all included in our quote.

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. For some song requests there is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc, but always so please do ask!
