How long do you take to set-up?

20 minutes

What time do you play?

Any time to suit you. Standard prices are for 2 x 45 minute sets or 1 x 90 minute set of live music, anytime throughout the day or evening.

How long do you play for?

We can perform 90 minutes of music, split in to sets as required.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?

We don’t use a PA or lighting as we roam about mingling with guests and perform completely unamplified.

What is the website guide price based on?

The published guide price is based on our 3-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in London. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance?

Yes.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have two weeks notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

How much space do you require?

Not a lot! The great thing about performing unplugged is we only need as much space as 4 people and our instruments take up!

How much power do you require?

None.

Do I need to provide food/drinks?

Ideally soft drinks and a hot meal or buffet. But this is certainly not a deal breaker so if you can’t provide this, just let us know in advance and we’ll bring food & drink with us.
