FAQs
How much do The Favourites charge?
Each individual client is provided with a bespoke quote based on their function's timings, the venue's location, and the date of the function. Give as much detail about the day as possible and the band will get back to you.
What is The Favourites' availability?
Due to the popularity of the summer wedding season and the Christmas party season, the band advise giving us as much notice as possible.
How much space do you need?
The band can fit into a space of about 3.5x3.5 metres, but remember to leave as much space as possible for dancing!
How long do you need to set up?
The Favourites require a minimum of 1 hour to set up and sound check so please factor this into your planning. There may be a small extra charge if an early start is required as this can often turn an evening's work into commitment for a full day.
I havent booked a DJ, do I need to?
No! The Favourites can offer a bespoke mp3 DJ service for a small extra charge! The playlist will be designed to suit your event as well as complimenting our own live set. That is not to say that DJs dont work really well - they can warm up the crowd for you, take requests and add that extra dimension to your evening. If your budget will stretch to it, consider hiring one.
Can we come and see the band play live before we book?
We will endeavour to make this happen, but, as the mainstay of our work is private functions, this may be hard depending on the season. However, a live video recording of one of our bigger gigs will soon be available on this site for all potential clients to view.
How far do you travel and do you include travel costs in your quote?
We'll travel as far as we need to - Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Europe wherever! But please be aware that travel costs will be built in to the quote we give you. If your gig is in London or the South East UK, most of the travel costs will be absorbed by us.
Are there any hidden costs?
A full break down of what you are paying for will be provided with every quote so there is no danger of any nasty surprises after the event. The band and Freak Music strive to be honest, reasonable and competitive with every quote they give but please provide as much information as possible at the time of enquiry!
Will the band learn new songs for us?
If the band can do them justice, then certainly!
Can you change your look for our event?
The Favourites aim to present a professional and smart look for all their live appearances, but are happy to dress down should you prefer.
Where are they based?
The band are based in London and are available to play throughout the UK.
