Space
We need a suitable area to perform on. Staging is preferred as it creates a better visual effect, though it is not essential. The performance area should be level.

Access
Most of our equipment is both heavy and bulky, meaning that we require vehicle access to the venue. The off loading area needs to be as close to the performance area as is possible. Lift facilities are required for any venue where the performance area is either above or below ground floor level.

Power
We require at least two 13 amp power sources - preferably two separately fused sources (one for sound and one for lighting). The power source should be as near to the performance area as possible.   Please note we will not accept a booking for venues with sound limiters, please check and ensure your venue does not have sound limiters in operation.

Set up & Set Down
We need at least two hours setting up time followed by a further ½ hour for sound checking prior to the performance, for weddings where there is a short turn round between the wedding breakfast and the evenings entertainment we can stage the setting up to ensure a quick turn round. It takes at least an hour to set down and clear the performance area at the end of the event.

Sustenance
Most of the band will have travelled some distance to the venue and will require food and drink during the course of the event. This can be in the form of sandwiches or hot food at the discretion of the client.

Performance times
The band normally plays 2 x 45 mins sets plus 1 x 30 min set, or 3 x 40 mins sets per performance.

Dressing Room
The band will require a room to change, leave cases and clothes, and rest during breaks. The room needs to be secure and large enough to accommodate the whole band comfortably.

Additional
The band carries £5 million public liability insurance and all it’s electrical equipment is PAT tested (copies available upon request).
