2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.

Yes please. Including vegan options in case we have vegan musicians on the night.

We want to book. What are the first steps?

Please get in touch, and we will send a booking invoice where you can pay the deposit and get it 100% booked in. We will then organise the logistics over email/WhatsApp between then and the event, with a scheduled phone call around 3/4 weeks before to go over all the details.

      “We used South West Music for our wedding. They were extremely communicative throughout and organised an incredible band to play in the evening. The band liaised with the venue and setup while we’re were celebrating. The band then absolutely smashed it and put on an incredible show. We will definitely recommend all of our friends and family to use South West Music.”
