Reviews of Bands & Ensembles

Sunny Evans
"We had the absolute pleasure of having Sam play at our wedding. And he absolutely added such a special vibe to the day. From helping with hymns in the church to a beautiful set back at the venue. We felt incredibly lucky to have Sam make our day that extra bit special. He played a combination of covers and his own music but whatever he sang was with pure passion and every single person during our wedding commented on how amazing he was. A real crowd pleasure that appeals to all ages. Thanks Sam, you really were fantastic 🤍 "

Dave P - 80th birthday party
The Phat Beats Big Band
"The band tailored the evening to suit the audience and performed a very good mixture of well known songs from different eras. They were very lively and engaged with the crowd all evening. Everyone enjoyed the evening and many danced wherever they could find space. The whole crowd enjoyed the musicianship and the feedback from everyone was excellent. We would certainly book them again."

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.
