We had the band for a 21st party and couldn’t have asked for anyone better. They had the dance floor full for their whole set and received praise from so many guests. I’m sure they will get plenty of bookings.

The Wigwams did a charity event for us, at the Frank Hawley Challenge Ball, they were thoroughly entertaining, and the room was up dancing from the minute they came on, they were professional throughout their performance, everyone in the room passed comments on how great they were.

Customer questions

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

We will try our best to make sure the singer in the video is the one who will be performing at your event. In cases where the singer is unavailable, we have a list of replacements we can send you with all of their socials. Allowing you to make an informed decision.

Do you have different line-up options?

We get you any other instruments to be featured in our band. As a basic package, however, we use our own bespoke backing tracks to fill out horn, brass, synth, and backing vocals where this would be appropriate. We have found this helps keep costs lower for clients without compromising on sound quality!

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

The sooner we have an event itinerary the better. However, we understand plans can change on the day of the event. Providing we finish at the 23:00 mark we can be completely accommodating as to when we perform on the day.

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

Music will be played on breaks or waiting times via a tablet or phone device between sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

Roughly an hour and a half for a good-quality set-up. In a pinch, we can do it in an hour. As soon as the PA system is set up we can play some music to help build the excitement for the night ahead.

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

If you have specific songs you wish to be in the breaks/waiting period music, please let us know so we can add them to our playlist.

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

All lighting and sound equipment is included in our quote!

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If there is a first dance or general song request you wish us to perform then let us know. We usually do a few for free out of courtesy, but if you have a large number of songs you want there is a £30 premium per song.
