Q - What kind of music
do you play?
A - We always try our best to play for whatever audience is in front
of us, we do not work to a set progam. If something is not working
then we will try a different approach and of course we are always open
to requests. We have added a set list sample to the Set list sample
page, we hope this will be of some help for you to get an idea of what
we play.
Q - We really
want a live band, but we are concerned that it will be too loud. Can
you play quietly enough so that people can still hear to talk without
having to shout?
A- Absolutely. We agree that there is nothing worse than the music
being to loud at a wedding reception.
Q - We need a
DJ, can you do both Band and Disco ?
A -
Yes we can, and we can go from being a live band to being a disco with
no time wasted in changing over; everything is set up from the start
of the night.
Q - How do you
get such a big sound from a two piece group?
A - We take full advantage of the technology that is available to us
today. This is exactly the same technology that drives performances by
many other professional acts on tour today.Together with this we also
play live bass guitar, live lead guitar.
Q- Presentation
?
A- The overall presentation of the band is a high priority and
encompasses such areas as dress, sound, lighting, punctuality and
reliability etc. With formal stage wear for formal settings and smart
casual attire for more informal, appearance is crucial to the overall
performance.
Q - How long do
you play for?
A - Usually at a wedding we play for 2 hours and 30 minutes live, and
a for another 2 hours with the disco, depending on what time we are
allowed to get started. This may vary depending on what way the event
is running, and we do work along with the hotel staff and video people
etc...
(please note that most Hotels do have a finishing time for
entertainment).
We will also provide backround music at the start of the night and
during the buffet as we find it helps to build up and keep the
atmosphere going!
Q - What time do
you start?
A - Unlike some other bands, we do not hold you to a starting time. If
you let us know the time your meal is booked for, we will work with
the hotel from there so that we arrive at the Hotel before the end of
the meal.
Q - Can you hold
a date open for me?
A - The bands policy for booking is that the first person to pay a
deposit gets the date. The balance must be paid on or before the day
of the wedding.
While we do not put a "hold" on specific dates without a deposit, we
will be more than happy to call you and advise if there are any
serious inquiries for your date. We dont want to sound like we are
pushing you to book, but we do want our prospective clients to know if
they have competition for the date in question.
If we do not receive confirmation after two weeks after an enquiry
then it will be deleted. onless other arragements have been made.
Q - Can we have
guests up to sing?
A - Yes of course you can! During our show, there is no problem with
guest singers performing and if needed we will provide backing music,
because this is your special day. Singers will only be invited up at
the request of the bride and groom, although we do find that too many
can spoil the flow of the day.
Q - Where can we
here you play?
A - We play regularly at public venues and would be happy to e.mail
you a list of upcoming gigs. You are very welcome to come along an
here us playing before you decide to book, also check out our bebo
band page for up coming gigs.
Q - Do the The
Cavanagh Brothers work through an agent?
A - No. We are under our own management. You deal directly with us so
there are no middle men, and this also means we can keep our prices
realistic.
Q
- How can I book The Cavanagh Brothers Band and Disco?
A - It's very easy, just give us a ring or an e.mail to see if we
still have your date open, then if we have, all we need are your
details.
*EXAMPLE
Bride and Grooms name?
Date of the wedding?
Name and place of where the reception is being held?
Your contact details, numbers and/or e.mail address?
If you require a disco?
These few details, together with a booking deposit are all we require
to confirm your booking.
