Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

1. "Stage Area" should ideally be at least 6m wide x 4m depth plus minimum 1m depth to allow for speakers to be in front of the Band
2. 3 OR 4, 13amp electrical sockets within "stage area" (not other side of walkways where guests walk).
3. We require close access to stage area to unload equipment and subsequent car park space for 3 cars.
4. We will need to have somewhere we can freshen up and get changed. We have a change of clothes for each set and a Female Singer, so a certain amount of privacy is required. So we would require "Dressing Room/Changing Room" facilities. In the case of an Event at a Hotel; we would ideally like a room for this purpose (inc use of bathroom facilties). This should be booked by the client in advance and any extra expenses should be covered by the client.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

YES. We provide our own PA for events such as Wedding, Birthdays, Private Functions in Hotel/Club sized Function Rooms etc. We can potentially "plug in" our Mixer to large PA systems for much larger Events.
YES. We have basic lighting for our own stage area for Hotel, Function Suite size. We would require that much larger Event venues provide additional Stage lighting .


What information do you require about a venue?

We need directions to find the right place to load in our equipment. We will need parking for 3 vehicles at load in access and subsequent parking if vehicles have to be removed.
We will need to know if there is a Sound Limiter . If so we will need to know "Sound Level" settings.
We have Public Liability Insurance for up to £10 million and all of our equipment is PAT Tested which a venue will require. We use very expensive equipment and also we need to be sure Band members are safe. Therefore, we we need to know that a venues Electrical Installation is safe with an up to date EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report)


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

We would provide Spotify/iPad music within our prices before, after and between our sets. We can potentially arrange for a DJ at extra cost for their services.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

Collectively, we have all played in various venues over the years; International Resorts, Theatres, Arenas, Army Bases, Clubs, Pubs, Bars, Golf Clubs, Hotels, Festivals


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Too many to mention really. Collectively as a Band we have many Artists and Genres that have been "favourites".


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Individually we all started from a young age, 9 - 10yrs of age. Whether that be an instrument or singing. We all have different histories. Some on a more local level with the UK others more International, for example; Our Lead Singer has performed all over Europe as a Singer and Dancer from 18yrs of age. Besides our Band, she also teaches Dance and Singing. Our Bassist has also worked as a Pro all over the World for many years with well known Artists.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

We play in many venues, Public and Private. We think any Private Event, be it a Wedding or Special Occassion, is best because the audience are in the mood for a good time.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

For our standard Packages, our sets are generally 2 x 45mins OR 3 x 30mins. Our more Premium Package would be 2 x 1 hour OR 3 x 40mins sets. Set lengths can vary which we would discuss with the client well before the Event.

Arrival at Venue, Setup times and Packing up may vary depending on the Venue. However, within the Package prices, we would look to arrive at a Venue to load in and Setup (inc "Souncheck") approx 2 hrs before our start time. After the Event we allow approx 1hr 30mins to pack up. If there is any extra waiting time before and after the Event then this would be charged extra. We understand every event can be different. Please get in touch to discuss your Event Schedules.


Are you happy to perform outside?

We’re happy to play outside with suitable cover from the Sun or the vagaries of weather. A flat level surface will be required (not grass or soft ground). As with any setup; we will need the suitable number of power supplies near to the performance area. Suitable cover and protection should be provided to protect our equipment from rain, water ingress, and hot Sun.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We can learn a "First Dance" for a Wedding or that "Special Song" for an Anniversary. Clients can choose specific songs or "genres" in good time before the event from our repertoire. However, clients usually leave it to us to select songs for our "sets" based upon the type of Event and age range of the guests. From experience of many audiences we ensure that our selection of songs are guarenteed to get people dancing and having a good time.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Our aim to to get the audience on the dance floor from the very first song. The general feedback is always good. "Great Band" "We danced all night". For us the main feedback is seeing the dancefloor full, audiences clapping and cheering after songs and always the crowd asking for "More" at the end of the night. Never had a gig where there wasn't a call for Encores.
