Sarah Leaver - Christmas Light Switch On
Hot Hats (Acoustic Covers Band)
"We have known Alfie for at least ten years. He has performed for us every New Years Eve for the past 10 years. His repertoire of songs and his professionalism has each year been complimented by our hotel guests, who have been staying to see in the New Year. He is also great at getting the guests involved and dancing! We have no issues with recommending him. Not only is his music really good, he is a nice guy too."

"Evelyn and the Band were absolutely amazing! They really gave us and our guests an unforgettable evening at our wedding! All the band members are really top musicians and Evelyn's voice is incredible. On top of this, they really bring the energy and keep the dance floor packed! Don't think, wedding band, think, top band that also perform at weddings. They were also very accommodating and all lovely people."

Frequently asked questions

You should always check whether or not your act is prepared to play outdoors. It’s sometimes not possible for acts that use a lot of electronic equipment to perform anywhere where it might rain.If the act is happy to perform outdoors you should plan to have electrical outlets close to the performance area and provide a flat surface as well as a cover in case of rain.
Each event is different but the typical performance time for bands & ensembles is 2 x 45 minutes sets within a 2 hours period. Some acts are happy to play longer sets or additional sets. Often, breaks can be negotiated but you should be aware that the price may increase if the musicians need to be onsite for a longer period of time.
Booking bands & ensembles as early as possible increases the chance of securing their availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many acts also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged performances for clients with just a few hours' notice.
Most bands & ensembles are self-contained and provide their own sound equipment which is suitable for typical situations. If your event is to be held in a large venue, or you have more than 300 guests, we recommend that additional sound equipment should be used. Always ask your act about their sound system requirements. Some bands & ensembles have lighting systems, but most usually will charge extra for this or recommend a third party supplier for you to use.
Frequently asked questions about Bands & Ensembles, how to register and how results are ordered are in the help & FAQs.
