Their versatility and uniqueness has proven effective in the events industry, as they have performed at everything from weddings and award evenings, to over 50 sold out shows at a 5 star hotel residency.
We need a performance space of at least 8x5 meters. We require minimum 4 sockets (we have our own extensions) for power, and 5 parking spaces.
We need to know directions, facilities for changing and for loading equipment in. I am always happy to have direct contact with a venue if it makes it easier on the client.
We are completely self contained.
We happily play a Spotify playlist before, after and between our sets. This can be provided solely by us, or the client can choose. A DJ service can be provided, for an additional cost.
We held a year long residency at famed 5 star hotel, Hotel Gotham, where we performed over 50 sold out shows and loved every minute of every gig!
We love any event where we can tailor our performance especially for them! Including client's favourite tunes is always a fun experience, and we love pushing our boundaries to accomplish this.
We started as mates at University playing at the local fresher events! We bonded and developed as a band from there, and quickly started performing regularly across Manchester! From there, we have done countless weddings, parties, award shows etc!
Frank Sinatra is at the heart of everything we do. Sinatra, as well as the rest of the Rat Pack, influence the show in its musical choices, presentation and light heartiness. We love including as many of Sinatra's hits as possbile.
We need 2 hours to fully set up and soundcheck (if everything needs mics). We are happy to do this at a suitable time before the event starts. We usually perform 2x60 minute sets, but are happy to be flexible. Feel free to discuss this with us!
Of course! As long as there is ample power supply, we love performing outside!
We love taking on requests as we believe in tailoring our performance to the client. We can also choose the whole show ourselves, or share our repertoire to put together the best possible set. We are always happy to discuss this.
Most clients describe us as explosive, energetic and unique. We never fail to get crowds dancing, and our unique show always leaves clients with an unforgettable evening.
