Set List/Services
Double Time have the ability to offer a number of different set ups to suit your needs.
We have three different PA set ups from a small portable unit through to a 4,000 watt 4 speaker set up with Bass Bins, ideal for larger spaces, pubs and outdoor events. All these set ups are fully volume controlled so no need to worry about being too loud for neighbours etc. Our most basic set up is just Neil playing acoustic guitar and Ria singing without any PA system - this is ideal for small rooms where mobility and volume are considerations.
We also have full lighting and back drops to create a great party atmosphere. We can fill out the space of a full band or tuck away in a corner depending on the type of event and the space available.
