Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

2x2 meter performance area and a 220v power supply.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, we’re completely self-contained. We bring our own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.


What information do you require about a venue?

We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment.


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

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.


What size PA do you have and how many guests is it suitable for?

We have 2 x 1100W column PA systems that are linkable, offering lots of versatility. One is perfect for up to approx 100 people and with the extension, it becomes 2200W, which is more than enough power for most rooms and guest counts up to approx 250 people.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

We performed on P&O's Adonia during its record-breaking voyage carrying the first American passengers into Cuba since the Embargo, an unforgettable experience!


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

It's impossible for us to choose a favourite song of all time as we love so many; however, some of our favourite artists are Chaka Khan, Chic, Michael Jackson, John Mayer, Tina Turner, and Fleetwood Mac.


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

We have gigged all over the world from cruise ships in the Caribbean to 5-star hotels in Dubai and now we love putting all of what we've learned along the way into our performances across the UK.


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

We love playing at all sorts of events but weddings are our favourite! The guests are always happy and it's just a pleasure to be a part of someone's big day.


Can you do an evening party?

Yes of course! Our background is largely in high energy party bands so we are very comfortable turning up the volume for an evening party and filling the dance floor.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Arrival 1 hour before the start of performance (if needed - up to 2 hours without extra charge).
Standard finish time is midnight.
Set up/pack down takes 20 minutes.


Are you happy to perform outside?

We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.


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

We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 5 songs.
The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe us as a versatile group that is comfortable playing intimately but also loves to get the audience on their feet dancing


Are you flexible with set timings and lengths?

Yes, we understand that your event may require some flexibility on the day and we are happy to accommodate, provided we are not asked to go above the agreed overall performance duration and finish time.
