Load-in and setup access (e.g., parking, stairs, lifts, or restrictions)
Performance space dimensions
Power supply availability
Venue sound and lighting setup (if applicable)
Curfew or noise restrictions
Set timings and event schedule

The band can provide their own high-quality PA system and lighting equipment if required. However, if the venue has an in-house setup, advance confirmation is needed to determine if it meets the band's requirements.
es, The Southern Sons can provide a curated Spotify playlist to play before, between, and after their live sets. This ensures a seamless musical experience throughout the event. The playlist can be tailored to suit the vibe of the occasion.
We have done so many. One that stands out is performing on a floating stage in the middle of hampton court flower show!
Anywhere that we can perform and get people dancing.
We have been performing as musicians for over 20 years and love what we do. Its both our job and our day to day passion.
Country and Pop and rock are our biggest influences.
Our typical setup and performance times are designed to be flexible and adaptable to the unique needs of each individual event. For our standard offerings, we usually provide two sets of 60 minutes each or three sets of 40 minutes each. However, we understand that every wedding or corporate event has its own schedule and preferences.
Before the event, we work closely with our clients to understand their timeline, agenda, and any specific requirements they may have. This collaborative approach allows us to tailor our performance schedule to seamlessly integrate with the overall flow of the event.
In terms of setup, we typically require a designated space and sufficient time before the performance to set up our equipment and conduct sound checks. This is usually 1 hour. The exact setup time may vary depending on the venue and logistical considerations, but we always aim to complete it efficiently to minimize any disruption to the event.
Absolutely! We are more than happy to bring our music outdoors and be a part of your special event, whether it's a beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony, a corporate picnic, or any other al fresco celebration. Performing outside adds a wonderful and unique element to the ambiance, and we are fully equipped and prepared to adapt to outdoor settings.
We understand that outdoor events come with their own set of considerations, such as weather conditions and technical requirements. Rest assured, our team is experienced in handling outdoor performances and will work closely with event organizers to ensure all logistical aspects are carefully planned.
From providing the right equipment to adjusting our setup based on the venue's layout, we are committed to delivering a seamless and enjoyable musical experience in an outdoor setting. Whether it's under the open sky or in a charming garden, we are excited to bring our music to the great outdoors and contribute to the success of your event.
Absolutely! At our band, we strongly believe in making each performance a personalized and unique experience for our clients. While we do have a diverse and engaging set repertoire that covers a wide range of musical genres and eras, we actively encourage our clients to have a say in the playlist.
Prior to the event, we work closely with our clients to understand their musical preferences, favorite songs, and any specific requests they may have. Whether it's a special song for the first dance at a wedding or a corporate event with a particular theme, we're more than happy to incorporate those requests into our setlist.
We understand that every event is different, and our goal is to create a musical atmosphere that reflects the tastes and preferences of our clients and their guests. Our experienced musicians are versatile and can adapt to various styles, ensuring that the music complements the overall ambiance of the event.
Our previous clients consistently rave about the energy and enthusiasm we bring to every performance. They often describe our band as the perfect blend of professionalism and entertainment, creating an unforgettable experience for their special events. Many have complimented our versatile repertoire, noting that we seamlessly transition between genres and eras to cater to diverse tastes and keep the dance floor packed.
Clients frequently highlight the quality of our musicianship and the tightness of our performances. They appreciate our attention to detail in tailoring the setlist to suit the specific preferences of their guests, ensuring a personalized and memorable musical journey throughout the event. Our ability to engage with the audience and adapt to the atmosphere of the occasion is another aspect that clients frequently commend, making us a popular choice for both weddings and corporate events.
We always suggest going on to do a first dance before the bands main set. This keeps guests up on the dancefloor and flows nicely into the live performance.
Our recent clients include a mix of wonderful couples celebrating their weddings and reputable corporations hosting corporate events.
