Additional booking notes

Tone Deff is a five-piece live funk fusion band. We can provide our own basic PA system and microphones for smaller events, depending on venue size and event requirements. For larger venues, festivals, and outdoor events, we may require a professional sound system and sound engineer.

We typically require adequate performance space for five musicians, access to standard electrical outlets, and reasonable load-in and setup time before the scheduled performance.

Our exact technical and stage requirements can vary depending on the size and location of the event. We are happy to coordinate with the venue, event planner, or production team in advance to make sure everything is prepared for a smooth performance.

Please let us know about any special venue requirements, parking/loading restrictions, sound limitations, or production needs when booking
