We’ll need clear directions for reaching the venue and details on the best spot to load in our gear. It’s also important for us to know in advance if there’s a sound limiter installed at the venue.

Yes, we’re completely self-contained. We bring our own PA system for all gigs, but please note that we do not provide stage lighting.

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify, or other streaming platforms, before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.

We’re still in the early days with this band, so every gig so far feels like a highlight. But since a few of us played together in another project for a couple of years, we already know how good it feels when the chemistry clicks live. The best show so far with this lineup was [specific gig], and it made us excited for the bigger stages ahead."

Even though this band is only one year old, we’ve got experience from playing together in the past, so we know what makes a gig memorable. Our favourite type of event is one where the energy goes both ways—the crowd feeds off us and we feed off them. That can happen in an intimate bar or on a big festival stage, and we’re excited to chase both.

As this band we’ve been together for about one year, but some of us actually played in another project together for more than five years. That’s where we first started gigging — playing local venues, building confidence on stage, and learning how to work a crowd. With this current band, we’ve picked up where we left off, bringing that past experience into something fresh. We’ve already started gigging again and we’re excited to push further and play bigger shows.

We’ve been influenced by guitar legends like Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani, and Andy Timmons, as well as iconic artists and bands like Sting, Queen, Yes, Van Halen, and Rush. Their combination of technical skill, emotion, and memorable melodies has shaped the way we write, play, and perform our music today.

We typically arrive about two hours before showtime to set up and soundcheck. Our standard performance format is either two 45-minute sets or two 60-minute sets, which we’ve found works best for both us and our audiences. That said, we’re flexible and happy to adjust the length slightly to fit the event.

We’re happy to perform outdoors, provided there’s sufficient shade, a flat, level surface, and a nearby power supply for our equipment.

We’re happy to learn up to 3 specific songs for your event. You’re also welcome to choose a set list from our repertoire, or simply let us curate the music for you.

Previous customers would describe us as a high-energy group that connects with the audience and keeps the atmosphere alive.
