faq
usual questions

Q: Should I hire a band or DJ for my wedding?

Budget and personal preference determine whether you hire a band or a DJ for your wedding. Having live entertainment at an event can transform the mood of the audience making your event a memorable success. Good bands and DJ's will be familiar with your type of event and know when to play appropriate music at appropriate times for your crowd. We specialise in matching the right talent to your event and to helping you decide what will work best for you.

Q: How far in advance should I book a band?

Generally 1 to 3 months in advance. For weddings and holiday parties, 6 to 12 months is a good guide line. As with most things, the sooner the better. However, last minute situations do arise, and we often set up shows with just a few days notice.

Q: What Kind Of Band Is Available To Hire?

There are many different types of bands available to hire for events and the first thing that we would recommend is that you are clear about what atmosphere you wish to create at your event. If you are looking for a party band who will get people dancing then you need to book a covers band who will play a mixture of well known material. If you are looking to create a more subtle party atmosphere then you might want to look at hiring a jazz swing band who can provide background music or swing style music to dance to. You should take time to work with us before making a decision about which band is right for your event.

Q: Why should I work with an agency to hire a band?

There are several advantages to using a talent agency. An agency will offer you a wider variety of acts to you. Also, agents have years of experience helping clients pick the perfect band for their event and only work with proven dependable acts. In addition, each show is guaranteed with professional contracts helping to reduce miscommunication and potential problems. It is sometimes a concern that working with an agency means a higher price. While we do earn commission on each show, we tend to get bands at better prices because we deal with them regularly. We provide a bespoke service co-ordinating every aspect of your event to ensure that it will run smoothly.

Q: How many breaks does the band usually take?

This depends on the number of sets that the band needs to play. A typical function usually covers three sets with two breaks in between. During the break times we can arrange a DJ or pre-arranged background music.

Q: What factors influence the cost of a band?

There are many factors that contribute to the overall cost of an event. A minimal band will have at least 4 performers and will play around 3-4 hours per event, but once the travel, equipment preparation including sound setup and checking are included, this can easily double. Travel distance to the venue and ease of loading of the equipment, i.e. stairs and service elevators etc, are also factors that influence the cost. Since entertainment plays such a major percentage in the success of your event, it should be given a budget suitable to it's importance.

Q: Should I tell the band which songs I want them to play?

If you have special requests then let us know so that we can tell the band ahead of schedule. Even if the music is generally unknown, if there is sufficient time the band can learn new pieces for your event. If you are unsure of what songs to request we can help put together a set list based on the style that you are looking for.
