Derek hired The Graduates (available in Portsmouth)
"We booked Full Frequency for our wedding, from the moment we received the quote they were very professional and good to talk to and were quick with the communication back and forth. In the lead up to the event we requested a couple of songs to add to the set list and gave them an idea of how we wanted the evening, which they were very accommodating. On the night they arrived discreetly and after a quick chat they set up promptly and professionally without any issues. They also allowed us to play the first dance through their PA which was very helpful. Once they started they were fantastic, a great mix of songs, great stage presence, and we’ve had nothing but compliments for how great they were. Highly recommend these guys, thanks for making our wedding party even better. "

FAQs about hiring Christmas Party Function Bands in Portsmouth
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
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!
