We don't provide sound and lighting equipment
We’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets.
We performed at the wedding gala of the Award winning Hollywood star Jessica Chastain. The best gig we've ever had was probably at the Summer Jamboree main stage in Senigallia, Italy, in front of over 10.000 fans.
We love playing at all sorts of events.
We’ve performed at hundreds of weddings, parties and events around the world.
Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzerald, Ray Charles, Louis Armstrong and many more.
We normally arrive 3 hours before the performance to have a sound check and dress 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."
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade and a flat level surface!
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 1-2 songs. The clients are welcome to check our set list.
We've always receiving high praise from our customers.
