Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

We need a performance space of at least 8 meters x 5 meters. We require 2 x 13 amp power sockets and 3 parking spaces.


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. We’d also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue


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


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

Frequently Asked Questions

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

We've performed at Glastonbury four times, over 60 gigs over ten years of experience including corporate functions at The Royal Ascot for Shell and Meta in their offices as well as hundreds of weddings and private functions.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love a wedding, liaising with the couple to curate their perfect night is a privilege we really enjoy.


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

Every member of the band began performing at a very young age and dedicated their adult lives to performing and teaching music. Our careers have taken us all over the world to perform.


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

We love Johnny Cash, Elvis, Buddy Holly and all the 50s icons as well as the 2000s pop punk and alternative rock we grew up with.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive 2 hours before the performance to set up. We normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. We’re happy to play a bit longer or shorter but we’ve found that these set times suit us and our audiences best


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 with enough notice 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?

We've been the family band for many different groups that keep us for all their big occasions, this is because we're a friendly bunch that love to personalise great events for good people, and we always put on a lively and inclusive show!


Can you perform acoustic?

We can perform acoustic and/or unplugged as a duo, trio or quartet in an acoustic setting as well as solo performances for all phases of the event (welcome drinks, meet and greets etc)
