"I just wanted to say what a pleasure it was to work with Just About Functioning. From the moment we made the booking they were joy to work with. We selected a bunch of songs we wanted played and songs we didn’t want to play and the band filled in the gaps to complete our set. We also asked them to play 3 songs not on their list and they more than happy to learn them for our wedding. (they were from soft rock to hip hop) The band worked directly with the hotel to sort out arrival and setup times. We also had a DJ and the band took the lead to liaise with the DJ to ensure the playlist didn’t clash, so these were tasks taken of our shoulders. They started off by singing happy birthday to our son who just turned 18. Before playing our song (Iris) they had just learnt for the first dance, which went down perfectly and set the tone for evening. Our third song we asked for was Jump around which went down brilliant the dance floor was electric, it went so well they had to play it twice. The dance floor was busy all evening. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the band. This also included the bar staff at the hotel. The evening would not have been the same without them. "

"The guys were amazing! We spent a long time looking for a wedding band, a lot sounding a bit naff or too rocky, but as soon as we saw Capricorn we knew they were our only real option (I also think you definitely get what you pay for) Looking back on videos from the day you really appreciate the quality of sound and the lead singer's voice. They played Ben Howard's 'Only Love' for our first dance and we actually preferred it to the original! They were all so lovely and professional on the day - we had so many compliments about them we couldn't recommend them highly enough. Thanks again "

FAQs about hiring Rock Bands in Basingstoke
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
Can any rock band play my favourite song?
Professional rock bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that rock bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the rock band's song list on their Encore profile.
How much time do rock bands take to set up?
Your rock band will usually arrive about an hour or so before their performance begins to set up and get settled before they start playing. To avoid any delays, make sure the performance space is ready for the rock band prior to their arrival.
My venue has asked for the performer’s PLI & PAT inspection certificates. What are these?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance. This insurance covers damage to another person or their property (it is also known as third party insurance). As many of our rock bands are members of the Musician's Union, they are already covered by PLI up to £10 million. PAT stands for portable appliance testing. Most of our rock bands will already have a PAT inspection certificate for their musical equipment/PA system, which they can provide to your venue if they need it.
