Just wanted to say a massive thank you for playing our wedding on 14th August 22 at Great Thythe Barn in Tetbury. The band were incredible from start to finish - our first dance was brilliant and your energy and audience participation (sorry about the terrible, drunken singing!) made it such a great end to the day. In the run up to the wedding you were professional and easy to deal with, which made it completely stress free for us. We have had nothing but compliments on the band from everyone we have spoken to. Would not hesitate to book you again for future events.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

We're quality musicians - we're made up of some of the most in-demand session musicians in the UK today, we have performed on West End and touring productions, as well as with artists as diverse as Westlife, Culture Club and Enter Shikari! We make things simple (we are fully self-contained), we offer total flexibility, and we always go the extra mile!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

We play a wide array of genres and musical styles that cover songs from the 60s right up to the present day. Artists that influenced our sound include Pharrell Williams, Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse and many more.

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 a large pool of musicians that we know and trust 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?

From a 7-piece with two singers, right through to a 14-piece lineup with 5 singers and a full horn section! Please get in touch for a bespoke quote.

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

On your day it's all about 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, and if things run late on the day we'll do all we can :)

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. We can play our tried and tested playlist, or you can send us a Spotify playlist or even lend us your device on the night. If you'd like a DJ service after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional cost.

How much time do you need to set up?

We usually set up about 2 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. We offer two bespoke choices, and we're definitely happy to chat through them and make sure we find what works for your event and not play any tunes you don't like.

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

Our high-spec PA and lighting system is included in your 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. We offer two bespoke songs as standard!
