If you're looking for the excitement of a live band, combined with the versatility of a DJ, then these bands are going to be for you. Some bands will use backing tracks to create their sound, and may even feature a "text your requests" service as part of their DJ package!
"We used The Underscores for our wedding and they were awesome from start to finish! Communication was spot on the whole way through, they spoke to the venue directly and answered any little query we had nice and quickly! The Underscores not only learned our first dance, but they also told us to choose another 4 songs they would learn to help make our wedding even more special! On the night they were great and kept the dance floor full all night! Our guests commented on how good they were! We are both delighted we chose The Underscores - they were class!"
Mr and Mrs Memmot's review of The Underscores
Ideal for:
Bands with DJs are incredibly versatile, and this makes them perfect for all sorts of events. Weddings are a particular speciality, as they will usually have a repertoire than can suit all age ranges. This will also make them perfect for birthdays, corporate events and all kinds of other functions.
When booking Bands with DJ's:
The category 'Bands with DJs' can mean various different things. Sometimes it will refer to a band that offers a DJ playlist or a band that offers a separate DJ with a complete set up in their own right, as an option. It can also refer to a band that incorporates a DJ set up into their live set, with backing tracks and synthesisers. As such, it's really important to take a good look through any promotional material your prospective act has (especially video) and make sure to ask questions about anything you are unsure about.
Most venues will require your band to have Public liability Insurance, in the case of any accidents as well as a PAT certificate for the electrical safety of their equipment, so ensure your band can provide these.
Prices for Bands with DJ's:
Bands with DJs may charge slightly more than a conventional wedding group, especially if you are looking to have them DJ late into the night. They will usually charge a minimum of £750, and usually a supplement if you are looking to have them DJ past 12am. If you are looking to cut down on travel costs, use the "advanced search" feature to find bands with DJs near you.
About Bands with DJ's repertoire:
As a live band, the group will probably stick to the typical function band repertoire. Expect to hear the likes of "Valerie" by Amy Winehouse, "Don't You Want Me Baby" by The Human League, "Mr Brightside" by The Killers and "Shut Up And Dance" by Walk The Moon, as well as other 60s pop hits, 70's disco classics and other rock, funk and soul tunes.
When it comes to their DJ sets, some bands will have a pre-organised playlist, while others will be more flexible. Keep in mind, if the latter is the case, the band will probably need access to the venue's wifi. Later in the night, expect to hear modern chart hits and 90's/2000's dance anthems.
