You really made the effort with your costume and bringing props too! We will be booking you again." Based in Uckfield, England (28 miles from Rye) Red Rover Pub - 80s Tribute and Karaoke DJ Photo of Tizane Tizane "I loved watching Tizane, they definitely picked up a new fan. They had the entire audience in the palm of their hand. The diverse original songs they played ranged from emotional and heartfelt, having the audience almost in tears, to upbeat and fun, leaving the room dancing, especially during their song 'Why Not Me'. I loved their song 'Running', it begun completely fragile and beautiful, but each chorus revealed that angsty, pop punk sound." Based in Dartford, England (41 miles from Rye) Ellie Miller - Camden Assembly Photo of Jaywhitesax Jaywhitesax "Absolutely blown away by @jaywhitesax tonight! Amazing music as always! Will 100% be having him back again soon! Thanks Jay! Awesome set?❤️" Based in South Benfleet, England (42 miles from Rye) Fattysbar20 - Bar/restaurant Photo of Jamie B Jamie B "I have hired Jamie on a few occasions for private events, he knows how to get everyone up dancing and is a born entertainer.

Most easy listening bands perform for two to three hours, often in longer sets with fewer breaks than louder acts. The relaxed nature of easy listening music suits continuous background performance during meals and receptions. It is worth discussing the event schedule with the band when requesting a quote.
