FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?
My own, yours, no, wait...they're all memorable, aren't they?
Honestly, I am so lucky I get to share a stage with my wife every week. We know that every wedding our band gets invited to is the most memorable of days in the making, and we go the extra mile.
We always love the wow factor of performing a meaningful first dance and seeing two groups of family and friends unite on the dance floor. That is a special moment.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Quirky, charming, fun, addictive, playful, energetic, bad at counting...
What about your business are you most proud of?
Our unique, fun and genuine approach to live music, it's made of magic.
Fun Fact: a leading national wedding agency once attempted to clone our band, it wasn't possible...we love that!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Rings. Definitely don't forget them.
Oh, and always try to go watch your wedding band before you book them. They might be great, but hey they might be rubbish....and we might still be available. We probably won't be, but we might.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
We were contacted by a friend of the couple, who couldn't attend the wedding, we arranged and performed a song they had written as the first dance. That was pretty cool.
We frequently find ourselves performing at weddings where members of the family are very musical, it's hard to beat them joining us for a song onstage...especially when it's the bride and groom!
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We are polite, helpful and friendly and our approach is to not just be a another service to pay for.
A couple of stress-free emails help us find out what everyone likes and allow us to create the best party music for the couple and all of the guests they have invited too.
A mobile phone number is also provided should any client ever wish to chat about special arrangements or specific music requests.
What is your number one floor-filler?
We adopt a different approach every night but 'I will wait' by Mumford & Sons and 'Mr Brightside' by the Killers always magically fill a dance floor.....and who doesn't enjoy a few sing-along tracks at the end of the night?
What is the soundtrack to your life?
Our daughter responding with 'yeah I know' to everything we say, while she plays the same Billie Eilish songs over and over and over again, on repeat, at volume.
