"We don’t even know where to begin, other than to say a HUGE thank you to The Tricks! From the moment they started playing, the dance floor was full – and it stayed that way all night. Their energy, talent, and connection with the crowd were just incredible. So many of our guests commented on how amazing they were and where we found them. The whole process, from initial contact to the final song, was smooth and stress-free. Communication was clear and easy, and they handled everything with total professionalism. On top of that, they’re just three genuinely lovely guys. The level of talent each of them brings is truly astounding. If we could do the day all over again, we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book The Tricks again. They were a massive part of what made the day unforgettable. Thank you again for everything!

What kind of performance should I expect from a function band?
Good question! There are essentially three types of function band performances: headline, background, and roaming. Headline bands are the most common; perfect for filling the dancefloor and getting the crowd moving. Background function bands are usually jazz bands - they can provide a great ambience for whatever event you might have in mind. Roaming bands are great for outdoor weddings or events where you want the band to get around to all the guests and provide a bit of audience interaction. Roaming bands are only possible as an acoustic act, so they come cord-free!
Will function bands take song requests?
Yes - but always best to ask well in advance! Most bands will be very accomodating if you've asked them to play a few special requests. Function bands are also usually very experienced, so requests on the night aren't out-of-the-question either (just don't be upset if they aren't keen to play all 23 minutes of Echoes by Pink Floyd!).
Will the function band provide all their own equipment?
Yes - most function bands will be fully equipped with their own PA system, music gear, and usually even lighting! Many will also provide a sound assistant, as well as a DJ service. A DJ service will keep the music going while the band take short breaks, but is also perfect add-on if you and your guests want to boogie into the far-reaches of the night!
