Our pleasure Steve - Absolutely ace night!

I had the absolute pleasure of hiring these boys for my wedding event, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! They delivered an unforgettable performance that had everyone on their feet and dancing the night away. Their talent and energy are unmatched, and I wholeheartedly recommend them for any occasion. A five-star rating is well-deserved for this incredible group of musicians! Cheers again lads for a absolute epic night.

What a band! I've seen these guys play quite a few times over the years and have loved every single gig, so much so I booked them to play at my own wedding where they pretty much stole the show :D Everyone was up on that dance floor the moment they started rocking out their seemingly endless list of absolute belters, and the feedback about "the band" from my wedding party in the days, weeks, and months after the big day was just awesome. Never fail to impress, bring all the energy and lift the vibe wherever they play, even on a pop up stage at a Tipi wedding! Thanks Lads - you were no small part of a very memorable day.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

The comments we receive the most are normally about the energy we bring, and how tight we are as a band.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We've played hundreds of venues. From wedding venues, to pubs and clubs across the North West. We've also played for the Army in Germany many times too - a personal favourite.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

So many. Bands like the Beatles, and Ramones, to later bands such as Green Day, Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, Red Hot Chili Peppers. And so many more...

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Playing at the Sergeants Mess in Germany a few times has been amazing!

Will the singer be the same as who I see in the videos?

Yes, we only play will the same band members, so what you see in the video is what you'll get on the night.

Do you have different line-up options?

We don't have different options. We're always: Lead Singer / Bassist Guitarist / Backing Vocals Drummer / Backing Vocals

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

Once you've booked us for the night, the timings can change to suit you up until the night of the event. If you need to change date, we can't promise we'll be available, but we can try to work with you to find a suitable date that works.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

We can provide a basic service, where we play your songs through our PA system. But we really think a professional DJ would compliment us better, meaning we can focus on being the best band we can on the night.

How much time do you need to set up?

Ideally, we'll need a minimum of 1 hour to set up. If we had a little more time, that would be preferable and allow us to fine tune our sound.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Sure, we're happy to play the songs you love, and skip the ones you don't. We'll always give our opinion, as we know certain songs can really get the crowd going - so it's worth keeping those in where possible.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Yes, all included

Can you learn song requests before the event?

We can do if we have enough notice. Being a 3 piece though, means there may be some limitations in how the song might sound. If the requested song doesn't fit our style, we'll just let you know - we'd prefer not to play a song that won't sound great.
