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.

It’s impossible to say. It’s like asking us to choose between Oasis and Blur and we just can’t do it. But what we can do is show you all the amazing Indie bands available for hire in the UK on our site. You can browse the listings, listen to their tracking, watch their performances on video and then enquire directly. So whether it’s upbeat indie anthems for a wedding reception, indie rock covers for a work party or something slightly different, we think you’ll find the best band for you right here. Happy browsing.

There’s plenty of information any Indie band will ask you for right at the start. Things like:
  • Venue information
  • Party time and date
  • Type of party
  • Favourite indie songs or special requests
  • Sound and lighting equipment provided
  • General vibe you’re going for
But it’s also worth providing practical information like what the parking situation is like. Your indie band is likely to have a lot of kit with them, so enabling them to park as close to the door as possible would be appreciated, we’re sure. Also let them know if you’re able to provide refreshments and so forth too.

Each event is different but the typical performance time for indie bands 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 indie bands 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 indie bands 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 indie bands have lighting systems, but most usually will charge extra for this or recommend a third party supplier for you to use.

The cost of hiring musicians can vary significantly depending on the type of act. The average price is currently £1128. Budget-level acts may be available for as low as £200, while top-tier acts can command prices as high as £3304.

Indie is one of those genres that means different things to different people. The term originally meant "independent" of the big record companies and was generally applied bands who wanted to go it alone, with their own sound. Nowadays, it seems to to cover everything from later punk acts like The Clash to the more pop inspired Kaiser Chiefs (with The Fratellis and The Stereophonics mixed in, for good measure). The term overlaps with pop/rock bands and is generally a three or four piece male-fronted, guitar based sound.

Hint: For this kind of band it's a good idea to make sure that you check the sound limitations at your venue. If a venue has a sound limiter then some of our bands won't be suitable for you.
