It’s worth checking with band hire if they have all the necessary equipment to perform. As standard, they’ll bring their instruments, however, you may need to provide amps, microphones and even a sound desk alongside band hire. Go an extra step and hire in a sound engineer if you want the very best audio quality. If you schedule in sound checks, the live band you hire will be on the right foot from the first chord. Transport and access to your event is another important consideration with live band hire. There could be a lot of kit to get in and out of the venue and this will need to be scheduled in for the event. Finally, don’t forget to check that your stage can definitely fit the band - very important! Simply complete a request form and book your band hire now.
