We are adaptable but ideally need a space of at least 8 x 4 meters. 2 x Plug sockets and 3x parking spaces.
We are self contained with a PA system and can bring a simple lighting rig.
Set up and sound check timings. We are not suitable for venues with a sound limiter.
Yes. Fee includes a consultation and we can tailor a playlist to play in between.
We have performed around Beds, Herts & Bucks for the past year. Our favourite would have to be a Party at 3 St Peter’s in Bedford. It’s a small venue but intimate and has a grand piano!
Queen: Their music is timeless and adored by pretty much any age group. We also use 3 vocalists and have a lot of their songs in our library.
However one of the greatest songs written would have to be Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls, lyrically beautiful song!
We formed through the open mic scene. Our lead singer, Chris, had come off the back of a stint singing on P&O. And initially came together for a one off gig. A year later and we’re going from strength to strength!
Any event is great for us. Our favourites are usually celebrations! It’s a great feeling to make someone’s big day that extra special!
Typically arrive 2 hours before the start of an event, can be set up and sound checked in 45 minutes.
We can have played up to 4 x 45 mins before, can tailor to clients needs!
Yes, but will need cover and power supplies.
Yes, clients can choose up to 5 songs not in our repertoire.
We are able to tailor set lists based on clients needs and have plenty of songs to choose from.
We are high energy, versatile and get an audience on their feet.
