    We are a completely customisable events band. We can do anything from laid back acoustic music and jazz, to our ultimate party band package which comes with a full band, videographer, photographer, DJ and dedicated event planner.

    You can secure your date with a small deposit and the rest will be due closer to the event. Please message us on Poptop to receive a quote.

    That all depends on the gig. Our ‘Ultimate Party Band’ usually play for 90 mins or 2 hours. In addition to this we can provide a DJ with a saxophonist who can play for up to 3 hours, as well as an acoustic or jazz duo/trio that can play for up to 2 hours as well.
