About Us
Band Hiring Info:
We have our own dedicated live PA system with tops, subs and mixing desk.
We also have our own lighting which works great in small to medium sized venues, however you can choose to upgrade your event and we can hire a dedicated lighting engineer with an expanded lighting rig.
You may use our PA and lighting rig free of charge before the band performance begins, during the break and after the performance. We can provide a playlist of music, alternatively you can bring your own device with your own music as long as it has a mini jack output. Please let us know in advance if your venue uses noise meters.
We can cater for different length events. Standard events are 2 x 60 min sets. However, do contact us as we regularly perform longer sets than this and can also shorten sets where required.We are able to learn specific songs for events such as first dances for weddings (where the song works for live band arrangement).
We require at least an hour set up time, 2 hours is preferable. We will require soundcheck time of about 30 mins to test all equipment and set levels - this will be noisy but we aim to keep this to a minimum.
Whilst we have standard setlists, we can adapt the setlist to suit the event and your guests.
If playing outside, you will need a plan B if it rains, preferably involving a large gazebo or other shelter!
We require at least 2 double powered sockets to run all our PAT tested equipment. We also have Public Liability insurance should your venue require it.
