Can you travel to my wedding?

We travel all around the country, but it does depend on where our other gigs are booked either side of your date. We are a Dublin band, so a travel charge will apply for any long journeys.

What time will you arrive?

We will arrive at your venue before 8pm and be ready to load in ASAP.

How long does set up take?

We can set up in 40 - 45 minutes including soundcheck.

How long do you play for?

We play for an hour generally in the first half, then break for tea and afters food before playing the second half. The second half is usually a little bit longer than the first half. In total the average from start to finish including break is 2.5 hours.

Our venue is really small, will you be able to fit?

We are small venue specialists! We have played in peoples sitting rooms and you’d be amazed how little space we need to set up. We know how to keep the sound levels way down so that your guests are still able to talk.

Can you perform our first dance?

Yes we can - but it does depend somewhat on song choice. We will do our best to play your first dance - or we can play it via Mp3 through our PA system.

* Unfortunately it’s not possible for us to send you a recording of the first dance in advance, and it’s not possible for us to perform your first dance at a showcase.

How do I book?

We require a small deposit to secure the date. As soon as you commit to paying a deposit we will put you in the diary.

Do you play showcases?

Yes we do, as often as we can. We have a showcase page on the site, and we keep it up to date. It may be possible to view us at a wedding if you can’t make it to a showcase but this is something we have to approve with the couple getting married.

Can you provide DJ?

Yes we can. The Suitcase DJ has played at well over 1000 weddings and uses all the same equipment as the band. Requests during the set are welcome, as are playlists in advance.

What kind of equipment do you use?

We use a Custom Toby Hatchett sound system, which is adaptable for use in very small or very large rooms. It’s a cool look and super fidelity sound. We use high quality lights to create a fantastic atmosphere in the room.

Do you have insurance?

Yes we do - we have full Public Liability insurance.
