FAQ's
If you have a question that isn't answered here, please contact us.
How far will the band travel?
The Big Funk will travel anywhere in mainland UK (or to any tropical island!).
Will I need to book a DJay as well as the band?
The choice is yours! The Big Funk can be booked independently, but professionally mixed CDs for between sets can be provided on request when you book. Alternatively we can bring good DJ’s (subject to availability). These are carefully selected by The Big Funk.
How long do you play for?
Depending on the function, The Big Funk can play anything from a single 45 minute set, up to a full 2 hours. The set times and number of sets are up to you. We also offer different types of sets. Laid back background or up front dance for different parts of your day. You can also make your own selections from the set list.
How much do you charge?
Pricing varies according to venue size, distance to travel, set-up and finish times and the nature of the function. Please email or call for a personal quote.
Will I need to pay a deposit?
The Big Funk usually ask for a small deposit of 20% of the band fee upon signing of the booking contract. If it is a very large venue and additional PA equipment is required, the hirers may also require a deposit in case of cancellation.
Do you supply all your own equipment?
Yes! The Big Funk will supply a PA and an intelligent lighting system. For larger events The Big Funk hire additional sound and lighting. This can be discussed and agreed with you beforehand and then arranged by The Big Funk.
Do you have any specific requirements?
A changing area would be handy, but not the end of the World if not possible. A stage/setting up area of roughly 20 x 10 feet with adequate power supply (a minimum of 4 sockets). Light refreshments would be gratefully received.
