Customer questions
Do you have different line-up options?
Our full line up is vocals, keys, drums, bass, guitar, sax and trombone. Whilst this will provide the best sound, we can reduce the size of the band if the gig is in a very intimate space
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Just send us an email and hopefully we’ll be able to accommodate the changes. If the day of the gig stays the same there won’t be any issues
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
If there is a PA system provided at the venue we can provide an iPod style service for free and if you want you can choose the playlist.
How much time do you need to set up?
Usually about an hour to an hour and a half. We’ll always arrive in plenty of time
Can you roam around while you perform?
Half of us are able to move around roughly the size of the stage (naturally the drums and keys players are fixed!), but we wouldn't be able to roam around a large room and intermingle with guests.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Our set list contains a huge variety of songs for different types of gigs, we will tailor the songs we play to match the atmosphere you want to create. We’d be very happy to chat through exactly what it is you’re looking for
Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?
Sadly we don’t own a PA system, if the venue doesn’t have one either we will use amps for everyone. Don’t worry though the sound will still be excellent and there won’t be any extra costs
Can you learn song requests before the event?
With enough notice yes we’d be very happy to play a few of your favourites!
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The atmosphere we create, the energy of our performances, and the fact we play well known songs with a funky twist
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
Generally we play at weddings/functions/parties rather than specific well known venues
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai, Tom Misch, Jacob Collier, Vulfpeck
