Apologies, we sent a direct email to the band straight after the wedding. They were absolutely fantastic and the dance floor was completely full the whole night. Everyone commented on how good the band were and we'd thoroughly recommend them. Please pass on our thanks to them for making it all so easy for us to have the most amazing night.

The Easy were fantastic. Perfect choice for our wedding, they put 110% into the performance and had everyone dancing all night. They also kindly played our first dance which was a lovely surprise as I had expected the original to be played. I found the booking process straight forward and you have been very efficient at responding to any queries. Thanks for your help.

Hi Sam, The Easy were fab! They were prompt on arrival and when it came to them performing, well, the dance floor was never empty which says a lot! Poor things, I don't think we wanted them to stop but they were there until 2am allowing us to dance to a playlist once they had finished their sets. A lot of people the next day were very complimentary about them. A big thank you to the whole of the band! Many thanks to you as well for helping us find the perfect band for Poppy and Sam.

Hi Steve, Carl and I wanted to drop you a quick note to say a huge thanks to you and the band for coming along to our Civil Partnership celebration in Whitbourne. You guys were genuinely awesome and we've had nothing but praise and glowing feedback from our guests who thoroughly enjoyed the evening and your performance. We'd highly recommend you and I think you have some new fans as a result of the weekend (and probably at least one guest who wanted to join the band!!). Thanks very much once again - you all made the evening really special and we were over the moon with your performance. All the very best for the future.

FAQs

Where is the band based and how far will you travel?
We are based in Bristol, UK and can travel to all national and international venues.

What do the band usually wear?
The Easy are always aware of the appropriate dress code for events and, unless a specific request is made, we would usually wear smart clothing with the backing band in suits, shirts & ties and the lead singers in semi-formal dresses.

How long does the band play?
We usually play 2 sets of approx. 1 hour each with a break of 30mins in between. This is not fixed, however, and with enough notice, we can cater a set just for you.

How long do the band need to set up?
The band need a minimum of 1hr to set up, increasing to 1hr 15mins if using the 7, 8 or 9 piece line-up. After this we will need a further 30mins to change before we can perform, though recorded music can be played through the system whilst this happens.

What do the band require at the venue?
At least 5m x 3m (or 4m x 4m) of floor space in order for the band to perform and approximately 1 to 1hr 30mins to set up (depending on the band size and equipment hired).
Adequate electrical supply, i.e. a minimum of 2 standard 3 pin, 13 amp power sockets near the performance area that are independent, i.e. NOT shared with catering, disco, etc. This should save overloading any circuits! If we are running off of a generator, we run no more than 3000 watts from a 230 volt supply = 13 amps.
Refreshments: It is customary to provide food/drinks.
A room to change in.

Does the band provide a DJ?
The Easy can provide a full DJ package including extra dancefloor lights and at present over 85 days of music! For a much smaller fee than it would normally cost for a separate DJ we can provide the entire nights entertainment. Playing before, in-between and after the band, the DJ set is manned and co-ordinated by the band so it is in tune with their setlist assuring the music for your event is fully in sync, though of course we are happy to take requests from guests as well. Please note, although happy to make any necessary announcements, we try and let the tunes do the talking, not the DJ!

We encourage our clients to suggest material that they would like to hear on the night whether it be genre, artist or specific songs so that we can get a feel for what atmosphere you would like for the evening.

As an alternative, we can provide background music to fill the space between the sets.
