FUN FUN FUN!

I hired this band for my 40th Birthday party and they juiced the place up. They were entertaining, and they got the party pumping. They played Reggae and Soca. I originally hired them to play for one hour and they ended up playing for 2 hours and closed the party out. I already booked them for my 41st.

Additional booking notes

We are a complete band with a minimum of 6 members (sometimes 8, depending on the event) therefore we will need adequate space to set up and perform. We will need adequate electrical outlets for our instruments and sound equipment. We will need a PA to play through. Depending on the size of the event, we can arrange for a PA at an additional cost.
