Soul Occupants
Full starFull starFull starFull starFull star

"Ok. This is a review you need to consider if you’re interested in hiring a band that will wow your guests. Soul Occupants are simply a high class act. The musicianship is outstanding and the two sets of 60+ mins were full of songs that brought our guests onto the dance floor right away. I love my music, and being responsible for hiring this band I was a little nervous. No way! They were superb! Wedding band, club band, pub band? Just hire them, you won’t be disappointed."

FAQs about hiring New Years Eve Party Party bands in Essex

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

Can any party band play my favourite song?

Professional party bands will often take requests, but you will need to give them plenty of notice. Please also keep in mind that party bands may ask for an small additional fee to prepare songs that aren't already on their song list. You can view the party band's song list on their Encore profile.

How much time do party bands take to set up?

Your party 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 party 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 party 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 party 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.
