HOW DO I BOOK YOU AND HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?

To make an enquiry about a possible booking you can contact us via our contact form, email contact@cassetteroulette.com or call Matt on 07515 355038. We will check our diary and get back to you as soon as possible to confirm availability.

​

We don’t list prices on our website because there are so many variables involved in quoting for an event that prices can vary quite significantly. Event location, date, timing, equipment needed, services required, performance lengths and band size can all impact the final cost. We will go through a few of these quick details with you and then provide you with an accurate quote.  

​

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR 4-PIECE AND 5-PIECE LINEUP?

Both options are the same musically, you are getting the same brilliant musicians with live guitar, synths, bass and drums. We can perform 95% of the same songs with both lineups, though there are a handful that need the full power of all of our singers! 

​

Our 4-piece lineup features our male vocalist (and guitarist) Paddy, and one of our brilliant female singers Amy and Jess. This lineup sounds great, and is a bit more budget friendly as we have less band members. It is also a good option if you have limited space.

​

Our 5-piece lineup features all three of our singers, for a truly massive live vocal sound. Amazing harmonies and our full catalogue of songs, there is nothing this lineup can’t do!

​

WHAT ABOUT MUSIC WHEN THE BAND AREN’T PERFORMING?

Use of our PA and lights is included for as long as they are needed throughout your event, we can provide suitable playlisted music for you, or many clients like to make their own party mixtape! We also offer a DJ service as discussed below.

​

WHAT ADD-ONS ARE AVAILABLE?

We are happy to discuss any and all aspects of providing the music for your wedding/event. For example, we can perform longer sets, provide acoustic live-lounge sets earlier in the day, and provide a DJ service between sets so guests can make requests. Please get in touch to discuss these or any other special requirements you might have and we’ll be happy to help.

​

WHAT AREAS DO YOU COVER?

We are based in Derbyshire so we are ideally located to cover events all around the Midlands, but we are also always happy to look at bookings throughout the UK and further afield!

​

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE YOU TO SET UP AND PACK AWAY?

We normally arrive about an hour and a half before your guests are due, this gives us time to bring in all of our equipment, set it up and soundcheck (which involves playing at full volume). At the end of the event it takes around half an hour to get everything packed up and out of the venue.

​

WHAT ARE THE BEST TIMINGS?
All events are different so we will discuss this with you to come up with a plan that is going to work best for you. Our standard quote usually includes 2 x 45 minute (minimum) sets, but we can play shorter or longer sets, or one long set if required. It's usually better to not have the band perform too early so that guests can have time to have a drink and relax, and if you have other things going on such as food we need to fit around this; nothing clears a dancefloor like a wedding buffet! :)  

​

CAN I PICK THE BAND’S SET?
You are welcome to point us in the right direction with a few songs from our repertoire that are your absolute faves, and equally if there’s a song you don’t want to hear please let us know! We will then use our experience to put a set together that we know works well to keep the dancefloor buzzing all night.

​

WILL YOU LEARN OUR FIRST DANCE OR FAVOURITE SONG?
We are always happy to look at song requests, please mention this at the time of booking and we’ll do everything we can to accommodate. We do need sufficient time to be able to learn and rehearse a song so last minute requests are not possible.

​

CAN I SEE YOU PLAY LIVE?
While a lot of our bookings are private events we do play at public events too, so feel free to get in touch and we can let you know what we have coming up!

​

DOES THE BAND HAVE INSURANCE AND PAT CERTIFICATES?
Yes, we have full public liability insurance and all of our electrical equipment is regularly safety checked, we can provide certificates to you or your venue as required.

​

MY VENUE HAS A SOUND LIMITER, IS THIS A PROBLEM?
Not at all! Some venues have devices that detect how loud a band is playing, we are used to working with these and can adjust our volume accordingly.
