If you would like the band to get everyone up to dance then the smallest band size would be a 4 piece as drums and bass are essential. These are prices for 2 x 45 minutes sets and for events based in the North West of England. TJ And The Band is self contained with full PA and lights.

If you have a full day event i.e. a wedding, TJ is also able to offer a duo (piano and vocal) that can play over the wedding breakfast or dinner, followed by the funky band for the evening. With over a 100 strong repertoire no songs will be repeated.

1 x 45 min set and 1 hour set
