FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS  

Make no mistake, choosing a band for your event can sometimes be a difficult and time consuming process! To answer any initial questions you may have, we’ve compiled the following list of our most frequently asked questions – you see, we’re nice like that!

How much does the band charge?
Pricing varies depending on travelling distance, size of venue, time of day required, set length and the nature of the function. Please contact us, detailing as much information about your booking as possible and we’ll be happy to provide a quotation.

How far will the band travel?
As our name would suggest, we are based in Bath, however depending on availability we are happy to perform throughout the UK.

How long do you play for?
Our standard set is in two halves, with a short break in between. Our total performance time is generally 2 hours, not including the break, however we can adjust our set to suit your needs.

What type of set can I expect?
Our standard set covers all the classic Blues Brothers songs, with a few extras thrown in from the Commitments and Aretha. Depending on the type of event we can include a short ‘party section’, featuring well known floor-fillers, past and present. For full details of our (ever increasing!) set, please contact us.

Do you have a demo CD?
We do! We’re very proud of our demo CD and will gladly supply a copy should you be considering booking us for your event. Don’t forget you can listen to our sound via the promotional showreel and audio player on our homepage!

Do you take requests?
We always aim to please, and wherever possible we will try to learn additional material to suit your event. (Please remember we are, however, a Blues Brothers tribute band!) When making an initial booking request, please include full details of any requests, as pricing will vary depending on music availability and rehearsal time constraints etc.

Do you supply all your own equipment?
Yes, we’ll turn up to your event with everything we need. If you can supply the power, we’ll entertain the masses! Our standard lighting option will set the mood (and flash accordingly!), however should you be looking for a full professional lighting experience (including lasers!) just let us know when making your booking and we’ll arrange with our experienced lighting designer at an additional cost.

How much space does the band require?
A difficult one! As we’re a 12-piece band, the more space the better really, however we have squeezed into some small spaces in the past! Generally, if you can provide an area at least 15m wide and 5m deep, we’ll fit! Wherever possible, the band will need somewhere to change and securely store instrument cases/belongings during the performance.

Will we also need a DJ?
We can provide background music when the band are setting up, during our interval and after the show, so booking a DJ is not a necessity. We are, however, experienced in coordinating with DJs and other entertainment on the night to ensure your event runs seamlessly.

Is the band available for charity gigs/fundraisers?
Yes, we play a number of these gigs throughout the year, raising money for good causes such as ‘Ted’s Big Day Out’ at the Royal United Hospital in Bath. For charity gigs we always charge a small fee to cover our travelling expenses, please contact us to discuss your requirements in more detail.

Is the band insured against accidents?
Yes, we are fully covered by public liability insurance.
