Customer questions

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

We always try our best to make sure the line up is the same as you see in the promo video. We work on an availability basis and work backwards. We will never just book in and hope for the best. We do have professional dep musicians at the ready in case of illness and if this ever comes up we will keep in touch directly to discuss.

Do you have different line-up options?

We do! Our main line up is a 4 piece band (Vocals, Guitar, Drums & Bass). We do offer a 5 piece line up that adds Sax.

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

We're usually very flexible with timings. Once the gig is booked in the priority for that day is your event. We just ask there is suchificent time before the event to make any travel adjustments as we all travel from different parts of the country.

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

Absolutely. We pride ourselves on providing great music before we start, in between our breaks and after to keep the party going all night long!

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually require 1 hour to set up from time of accessing the venue. As soon as the PA is set up we can start with the chilled out playlist until we soundcheck.

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

Our setlist is crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to keep people dancing all night long. We will of course do our best to try and fulfil any requests that we can but we know what works best.
