Requesting songs for the live music is optional, and we always advise that it's generally best to allow band the freedom to tailor the live sets as they play every week and know what songs work to keep the party alive, reading the audience on the night and keeping the dance floor full!
LIVE MUSIC FOR YOUR PARTY
Hannah will keep in touch with you all the way through until the day of your event for any queries you may have; for example, to discuss the timings of your night and agree on the best time to get the live music started for your party or event. It's usually best to start with the disco and get the live music started between 8 - 9pm for a full and lively dance floor!!
The show consists of 2 x 1 hour (or 3 x 40 minute) sets from a wide and diverse range of popular pop, rock, indie, disco & dance music - from a little 50s rock n roll to 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s & 2020s. Always well known songs to get your guests singing and moving!
When booking the full 4-piece live band, we can provide an extra 30 minutes of live music (Fee of £100 applies). If you are having a 1am finish and extra 30 minutes of live music we can incorporate a discount on the extra fees.
See Us Play Live!
Being a private party, wedding and function band, we play very few public gigs, but if you're interested to see the band play live before booking then you are very welcome to attend a public gig - please feel free to contact Hannah to request upcoming dates and venues. Alternatively, the band are happy to invite prospective clients to see them in action at a band rehearsal - ideal if the timing or location of the public gigs might be an issue.
Be aware, if you wait too long to see us live before you book us - we'll probably get booked in the mean time.
