About / Biography

The Roamantics are a four-piece acoustic band performing an eclectic mix of popular music in a relaxed unplugged style. Using a discreet battery-powered PA, they are able to play completely off-grid with fully controllable sound.

In practical terms, this means:

  • No cables, no limits

  • No power required

  • Ideal for gardens, courtyards, terraces and drinks receptions and festivals.

  • Controllable sound for both small and larger events

  • A roaming setup that can move between locations during an event

The PA travels with inside a beautifully styled vintage tricycle, so visually it feels like part of the event rather than technical equipment.

The result is live music that can pop up anywhere — creating those unexpected musical moments that clients love.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

For our static amplified set up we need access to two x 13 amp sockets, a 3m x 2m performance space and up to two parking spaces.

For our roaming performances we are tech free and will play anywhere!


What information do you require about a venue?

We will need the full address of your venue and ideally a contact there to liaise with on the day of your event.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

We will provide a PA system that is suitable for the size of your venue and number of guests. We will bring a limited number of lights to light the band. Further lighting is available on request at extra cost.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

We are happy to play a Spotify play list before and between our sets. Clients are welcome to provide their own play list or let us choose the music ourselves.


What does a roaming band do?

As an unplugged roaming act we can move around and perform mini sets of live music to guests wherever they are at your event; by the bar, on the terrace or in the dining room as they eat. This is ideal for events where guests are spread our round a venue and particularly perfect for drink receptions.


Can you work with sound limiters?

We are the perfect band for venues with sound limiters. Even when playing through a PA we will be well under the sound limiters levels as we don’t us a full drum kit. Rest assured, this doesn’t stop us filling a dance floor and bringing the party to you and your guests!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

We loved playing at the British Grand Prix in the Paddock Club at Silverstone, roaming and playing out music to the teams in the pit lane was fantastic fun. Taking our compact plugged in set up to perform at the Google headquarters for their Earth Day event was great too… in fact they loved us so much they looked us again the following month!


What's your favourite type of event?

We love playing a range of events. The joy for us is helping the client achieve a unique and memorable event for their guests. We love it when we manage to surprise guests with the songs we cover and when the dance floor is full!


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We have all performed together for over 15 years in various line ups including 70s and 80s bands, a funk band, rock band and skate rock tribute! Between us we’ve gigged all over the world for all kinds of wonderful events.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

We love a variety of music… so that’s what we play! Anything that puts a smile on your face, gets you on the dance floor or makes you want to sing along is good for us. There are just too many brilliant tunes to pick our favourite. That’s why we’re always adding new songs to our set lists!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We need 1.5 hours to set up for a static amplified set and we normally play 2 x 50 minute sets but let us know if you are looking for something more or less than this. .


Are you happy to perform outside?

We will happily perform outside. We will need some kind of cover and access to power if we are bringing a PA. If you’d like us unplugged and roaming we can perform anywhere (weather permitting!)


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We are happy to learn a song of clients choosing, we will add this to our tried and tested repertoire tailoring our sets to your guests on the night and what they are responding best to.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients would describe us as fun, engaging, upbeat and versatile with great banter!


Can you put together a bespoke package for us?

Absolutely! We can combine a roaming performance during drinks, with an amplified set later on and even include ceremony music if you would like. Let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll work with you to create the perfect musical backdrop.


Can you provide a virtual set?

Yes! We have the option to provide a fully mixed multi camera live gig via Teams or zoom from our own beautiful studio space. We will interact with guests through the chat feature and can even take requests. This was a really popular option through the pandemic so we have lots of experience!
