Frequently
Asked Questions
How far in
advance should I book the band?
There is no hard
and fast rule except to say “the sooner, the better!” Our band is generally
booked six to twelve months in advance - sometimes even more. As soon as you are
sure of your date you should choose your band. The longer you wait, the less
chance you have of getting the group you want.

Will
you play a special request, even if it's not on your songlist?
Yes! We are
happy to learn a special song for you provided that we are given enough time. If
we are not able to perform the songs live, we ask that you send us a CD or MP3
of the song to be played from iPod. Sometimes there are songs that we know that
aren't on our list - so please ask!

Should
I pick the songs I want played?
Yes and no. You
shouldn't try to write our set lists. Knowing what to play is an important part
of our job and we do it well! We prefer to have you highlight some things you
especially like, as well as those you just can't stand. Please keep in mind that
a song that you may not especially like could be the favorite of many of your
guests. Our goal is to keep every age group entertained and the dance floor full
of happy campers!

Who
will emcee (make the announcements)?
Our band members
all serve as emcees, and they do a great job. They start by being prepared well
in advance of your party. They will send you our Wedding questionnaire, and
then follow up with emails, faxes, and whatever it takes to know everything you
want announced during the event. They can introduce the wedding party into the
room, bring the best man up for a toast, orchestrate the bouquet tossing, or
anything else you might think of.

How
many hours will I have the band?
A typical party
is four hours long. In some cases dinner and dancing are preceded by a cocktail
reception, and we can provide you with sound systems for speeches, dinner music, video
presentation equipment and special entertainers.

How
many breaks does the band take, and for how long?
The industry
standard is three 15-minute breaks per evening. Whereas we feel that breaks are
important, we always strive to flow with the food service or other aspects of
the party. We will coordinate with you and your event planner to insure that our
breaks are well-timed!

Do
you provide music during the breaks? Who chooses this music?
Yes, we have an
assortment of genres of music that we play during breaks. The style of music is
chosen based on whether guests are eating or the party is in “high gear!” If you
wish to provide an iPod with music, just let us know.

What
are your stage and electrical requirements?
We usually
request a 12' x 20' stage for our 5 piece band. This gives enough room for the
singer to move around a bit without everyone else being cramped. Three or four
separate electrical circuits are optimum. It is a good idea to check with your
band leader well in advance.
