We are The Snap Chaps - Premium unplugged 4-piece, all-singing, strolling band based in Cambridgeshire, UK

We play music that will get you on your feet!

We specialise in weddings, corporate events and private parties!

Taking inspiration from our love of the fantastic strolling acts made popular throughout the Alps and South of France, we are delighted to bring that toe-tapping, unplugged, acoustic, roaming, sing-along, cheeky, and fun atmosphere, and engaging party vibe right to your feet here in the UK!

We are most at home performing among our audience, taking requests at tables, providing not only a fantastic soundtrack but also a truly immersive and unforgettable entertainment experience!

Our Musicians:

• Kyle on Acoustic Guitar and Vocals - A seasoned wedding performer and acoustic entertainer in his own right, is there a song he doesn't know? With influences in pop, rock, and indie - put him to the test! Your main point of contact for enquiries, bookings, liaising with the venue and fronting the show on the day!
• Tom on Double Bass and Vocals - A touring multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, experienced stage show musician, and session artist! Tom brings some fantastic rockabilly vibes to our show!
• Myke on Saxophone, Irish Whistle, Flute, and Vocals - The band's jester, when he's not charming your guests, he's dancing on the tables, making them laugh, and generally misbehaving! As talented as he is amusing, Myke brings with him a wealth of experience and Jazz, Funk, and Folk vibes to our shows!
• Edu on Percussion and Vocals - Meet the founding member and influencer of the band and percussion extraordinaire! Drawing on his experience performing in strolling acts and bands across the World, his enthusiasm for music is endless! Hugely versatile, performing on a uniquely portable, acoustic, standing cocktail drum kit!

What's Included:

Our basic package includes up to 90 minutes of live music, performed over a 3 hour period! Recommended as best performed over 3x30-minute sets. Being unplugged and unamplified, we are a uniquely mobile act and can relocate at a moment's notice. This can be performed as a relaxed drinks reception type vibe, or we can bring the party to your guests, take requests, and welcome them into the band with us, both singing along with handing out percussion! Additional performance time is available too and prices are available upon request.

Weddings:

Providing the perfect soundtrack for your day, bespoke quotes are available for whatever you need! Including learning any special song requests. Our two most popular wedding packages include:

Pre-Ceremony and Drinks Reception:

Set the mood upon your guests' arrival at the ceremony with 30 minutes of classy, easy-listening pop, jazz, and swing! Followed by 2 x 30-minute sets of lively, upbeat, roaming, interactive entertainment during the drinks reception! A great way to get the party started!

Desserts & Early Evening:

Lift the room over desserts as our band enters while performing, offering an engaging performance among the tables and providing a truly fun and memorable experience. A great way to warm your guests up before the speeches! We'll then provide flexible and completely portable strolling entertainment with 2x30-minute sets as your evening guests arrive and you relax after the meal, before finally handing over to your DJ to finish the night.

Add-on Options:

We are proud to offer a host of additional options too, with prices available upon request. Please feel free to message us, and we'll arrange a call to discuss these options further and put a package together for you:

• Ceremony Music - have our singing acoustic guitarist perform as your guests are seated for the ceremony, welcome the wedding party with the aisle entrance track, registry signing tracks, and ceremony exit track, with a beautiful mood-setting amplified set during the ceremony. Learning special requests too, and we also offer a complimentary video preview of the aisle entrance track in advance.
• First Dance - have our singing acoustic guitarist learn a special request for you for your first dance and father-daughter dance too, performed with amplification on the dance floor. Working closely with your DJ to provide a seamless handover into your evening entertainment.
• Amplified Options - We are proud to also offer solutions for amplified performances too. While this is not currently offered in a roaming performance style, we are happy to provide a PA and lighting and set up a static, staged area for the band to perform. This is available for solo, duo, trio options too for alternative parts of the day. For example, you may wish to have the band perform as an unplugged roaming show early evening, complementing this with a solo or duo performance from a combination of our musicians during the drinks reception or during the meal.
• Line-up Options - We are pleased to be flexible on our line-up options, offering solutions from everything from a solo amplified performance up to an all-singing 5-piece band complementing our show with an additional lead guitarist for jaw-dropping guitar solos too! This allows us to offer a fantastic show at various price points!
• Roaming Sax Player - Have our saxophone player join your DJ and guests on the dance floor for the evening, engaging with the crowd and providing a truly memorable start to your evening party. Up to 1 hour, performed with a wireless microphone and amplification.
