FANTASTIC BAND! They really brought the party for our large 180 person event! We had Toneacity perform at the Liver Building for the Mersey Anaesthetic Ball 2024. They really brought the party and had everyone up on the dancefloor all night! SO many people told us after the event how brilliant the band were! They were also so great to work with leading up to the event and we knew we were in good hands. We couldn't recommend them more and will definitely book for future events! Thank you!!

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

I signed an NDA, so I can't go into details, but one of the most high-profile gigs I performed was singing at a celebrity wedding in 2020, held in St. Moritz, Switzerland.

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

Yes! The singers in our videos will be the ones performing at your event. In the rare case of illness or unavailability, we have skilled understudies who know the set and can step in seamlessly. You’ll always be notified of any changes in advance

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes! We offer flexible line-ups. For ceremonies, drinks receptions, and wedding breakfasts, we have a 4-piece (three vocals + guitar or piano). For the evening, choose from a 6 to 15-piece band to suit your vision and venue.

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

We understand that plans can change! Just let us know as soon as possible, and we’ll do our best to accommodate any timing adjustments.

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

Yes! A playlist service is included as standard with any package you book with us, keeping the music flowing before, between, and after our sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

We typically need 1.5 to 2 hours to set up, preferably in an empty room to ensure a smooth and efficient setup.

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

Our set lists are crafted from years of experience to ensure guests have an amazing time and stay on the dance floor. We're happy to discuss your preferences and make sure we tailor the music for your event. If there are a couple of songs you'd like that aren't on our list, we'll do our best to learn them, though we can’t always guarantee it.

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

Yes, all of the equipment, including the PA system and lighting, is included in the quote. For our 6-piece band, we require a stage space of 5x6 meters. If you choose a larger band, additional space may be needed.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes, we’re happy to learn up to 2 or 3 song requests before the event. We’ll assess if it’s something we can perform and do our best to make it happen. There’s no extra charge for this – we’re here to help make your day everything you’ve envisioned!
