Champagne Package: Our most popular option, the Champagne Package, brings statement entertainment to perfectly elevate and complement your party, such as a milestone birthday celebration. It includes a 1 x 40-minute welcome set, designed to create a vibrant atmosphere as guests catch up, followed by 2 x 40-minute party sets later in the evening—delivering the high-energy performances we are best known for.

Prosecco Package: Perfect for parties, this package works well with either 2 x 45-minute sets or 3 x 30-minute sets, which can be placed throughout courses during a dinner party, whether seated or standing. Another popular option is to have 1 x 30-minute welcome set, followed by 2 x 30-minute sets as the party kicks into full swing.

Cognac Package: Designed for party hosts who want the ultimate live music experience for their celebrations, the Cognac Package is our most immersive and high-energy option. A professional sound team is included to deliver exceptional audio throughout the event. The experience begins with a saxophone welcome set to create a relaxed, elegant ambience as guests arrive. The Travelling Hands then bring vibrant, acoustic performances that can be spread throughout your day as you see fit – whether that’s a laid-back afternoon set, immersive live music during dinner, or a lively evening performance as you take to the dancefloor. Following that, our saxophonist and percussionist perform alongside your DJ, adding an electrifying live element to every party.

Yes, you can! You can upgrade from our 5-piece band to a 6-piece band for both the Prosecco and Champagne packages. Simply let us know if you’re interested in a 6-piece band for your celebrations, and we’ll confirm pricing and check availability straight away.

Our dinner performances are what we’re best known for! We help you make the most of your dinner party by providing a musical experience that unites your guests and ignites the celebrations as you dine.

Imagine saxophone solos from the chairs, guests clapping along from their seats—or even getting on their feet! It’s common to have a brief speech or two during dinners, and our performances work perfectly after these moments, offering a lively contrast to the quieter tones of speeches and helping you celebrate in style.

Our 5-piece band features two acoustic guitars, double bass, saxophone, and percussion—all performed by singing musicians.

The 6-piece band adds an additional acoustic guitarist to the lineup, enhancing the overall sound and energy of the performance.

Amplified performances ensure that all your guests can enjoy the music simultaneously, no matter where they are in the venue. We work closely with your event’s production company—or can recommend trusted providers—to supply wireless microphones and instrument packs. This allows us to maintain the roaming entertainment we’re known for, while projecting the music through speakers placed around the performance area(s).

Imagine a live playlist during your event where every guest can enjoy the music, even if we’re performing for a group on the opposite side of the space. Amplification enhances the delivery of the music, creating a richer, more immersive experience.

We highly recommend amplified performances for larger parties or occasions where you’d like the music to take centre stage. It’s an excellent option for elevating the atmosphere and ensuring every guest feels part of the celebration.

Yes! We love joining guests on the dance floor for an immersive, high-energy performance that brings the celebration to life. It’s a fantastic way to keep the party going and create unforgettable memories with your friends and family.

To ensure the best sound and atmosphere, amplification is required for dance floor sets. This allows us to maintain the clarity, volume, and energy needed to deliver a truly impactful performance. We’re happy to work with your production team or recommend trusted AV partners to help make it all seamless.

We perform a carefully curated selection of songs from different decades, designed to ensure guests of all ages can enjoy the music during your party. Click here to see the most popular songs that we perform.
