The Beat is my personal influence, but all six of us are musicians of various degrees, keyboard and saxophone players are fully professional, key player being a full time wedding pianist. All of our influences are different. The ska we perform makes us all happy and we very much enjoy performing it. We would as a group say that we do not have a particular favourite.
19 years performing country wide, minimum of around 40 gigs a year but usually more. We got together in a pub that our drummer ran which was a live music venue and we never stopped. Over 100 weddings under our belt including a true Hollywood A listers wedding. We perform all over, the channel islands, Isle of Wight,England, Scotland, Wales but not as yet Ireland. Any event considered.
Scooter, biker, car events are our favourite, but we love a good wedding or birthday party.
Yes we do. We travel with everything that is required to enable us todo our show.
We are very lucky to have our friend Martin with us. He is a professional sound engineer and worked with many big mainstream bands. We can plumb our PA system into any in house PA system and run our show as required. Martin will liaise with all venues and ask any questions related to our technical requirements.
Six piece, drums, sax, trumpet, keys, bass and lead guitars. Sound engineer controlling our performance. Arrival time to suit the client, but anytime that we can get into the venue. Our first set is approximately 50 minutes to an hour, our second set is 60 minutes plus, then an encore if requested. A break of twenty minutes minimum between the sets is usual, but flexible. Can play the whole as one set. Again, whatever the client requests.
Yes. So long as the area is safe, sufficiently waterproof, with correct health and safety procedures followed. I we as a group are unhappy then the client is notified on the day. This is very important of the safety of everyone concerned in the event.
A set repertoire, but the client can ask for specific songs in specific orders, or for us not to perform certain songs. Set list can be supplied to the client upon request, along with a promotional pack.
Extremely fun, high quality and highly professional.
With a big up for FUN!
