WHY SHOULD I BOOK THE BOULEVARDS?Well, put it this way - we've been playing rock and roll music together for over 10 years. Rock and roll isn't just something we enjoy playing, we genuinely love this music. As a result, we pride ourselves on being expert rock and roll musicians who are passionate about delivering it in the best possible way - with energy, authenticity and a huge amount of fun. We have an enormous wealth of experience as professional musicians, having performed internationally at countless functions, weddings, corporate events, public events, festivals, cruise ships, TV shows, theatre shows... the list goes on.
-
HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE?Our pricing varies a little due to several factors - the biggest one being how far we have to travel and whether we require accommodation as a result. All these things make every quote individual and that's why we ask for a few details before giving you a price.
-
HOW FAR WILL YOU TRAVEL?We're happy to travel worldwide.
-
DO YOU TAKE A DEPOSIT?Yes. We take a 25% deposit in order to secure the booking and then ask that the remaining balance is paid 4 weeks in advance of the date.
-
WHAT DO I GET FOR MY MONEY?A five-piece band of expert rock and roll musicians, two hours of live music, a full PA system, stage lighting and a playlist of your choice of music before and between sets to keep the party atmosphere alive.
-
HOW LONG DO YOU PLAY FOR?We perform 2x 60 minute sets. This is our preferred set time as we feel it gives you the best live music experience, but we can also play for 3x 40 minute sets instead.
-
WILL YOU PLAY FOR LONGER?If you would like us to perform an extra 40 minutes of music, we're happy to discuss the additional cost with you.
-
THE VENUE HAS A SOUND LIMITER. CAN YOU WORK WITH THIS?Whilst sound limiters are not ideal for live music, we do respect that some venues need to be careful about noise pollution. We've performed at a lot of places with limiters in the past and are very accustomed to making sure our sound levels stay within the required limits.
-
WHAT TIME DO YOU ARRIVE?Our arrival time is 5pm. It take us approximately 75 minutes to be set up, sound-checked and ready to play. We will perform our agreed set times up 'til 12am. If you require us to arrive before 5pm or stay beyond 12am, we're happy to discuss the additional cost with you before the date.
-
CAN I CHOOSE WHAT SONGS YOU PLAY?We're happy to accommodate 2 or 3 requests from our repertoire into our sets, but we suggest leaving it to us to decide the order of songs. We've got years of experience making the best possible set lists work for all kinds of events.
-
WILL YOU PERFORM MY FIRST DANCE?We're happy to learn a first dance song at no additional cost, so long as it fits within our style as a vintage rock and roll band. We'd suggest looking through our repertoire first and seeing if there are any songs there that you might like. We're also very happy to play an mp3 track through our system if you'd prefer.
-
I WANT A DJ FOR MY EVENT TOO. CAN YOU HELP?Yes. For an additional cost of only £250, we can supply a manned DJ set after the live music until 12am. This gives you and your guests the chance to request an unlimited number of songs from all eras. This is significantly cheaper than hiring someone else and has proven to be a very popular choice with our clients.
-
DO YOU BRING ALL YOUR OWN EQUIPMENT?Yes. Our price includes a full PA system and stage lighting. All of our equipment is fully PAT tested and we are happy to provide a record of this should the venue require it. For overseas bookings, a backline and PA system hire is required.
-
ARE YOU INSURED?Yes. We hold an up-to-date public liability insurance certificate and will provide any venue with a copy of it upon request.
-
MY FRIEND IS A GREAT MUSICIAN. CAN HE PLAY YOUR GUITAR?Unfortunately, due to insurance purposes, we can't let anyone else play our instruments. It's best to leave the playing up to us and the dancing to you and your guests.
-
DO I HAVE TO PROVIDE FOOD FOR THE BAND?We do ask that a hot meal and water is provided, simply because every job takes a lot of hours out of the day for us and usually covers a traditional evening meal time. To be clear though, we won't ever request lobster and champagne!
-
CAN I COME AND WATCH YOU PERFORM?Whilst we can't invite you to private events, we do also perform at public shows that you're very welcome to attend. These will be listed on our 'about' page as soon as they are confirmed.
-
HOW DO I BOOK YOU?We've made this process really simple. Use the form on our contact page to make an enquiry. After we've agreed on the price, we'll send you a contract to read through and an invoice for the 25% deposit. Once you're happy with all the terms, you simply need to sign the contract, return it to us and pay the deposit. There's no need for anything complicated and nobody wants to get into an endless string of emails and admin! That being said, you are welcome to contact us any time before the date if you need to discuss anything at all - we're always happy to help!
