“The lads were just great! Super organised and accommodating, and the music and playing and playlist - simply fab.”
Katy Sheppard - Party, The Navigator, Hampshire“Everything was very easy and simple to search for bands and to confirm a contract with the Rustiques. The timings took a few emails to confirm and clarify, but otherwise all good. The band were amazing and turned up and set up with no fuss, and started bang on time despite us being late. The two sets were played to an incredible standard and our venue was really happy with the band's professionalism during set up / take-down. We're really grateful to them for making the long journey and helping us host a superb evening.”

What i lack in skill I make up for in enthusiasm and it was easy with the tunes rolling all night”
Ryan Keogh - Wedding , Chiddinglye, West SussexAbsolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features the biggest classic and current chart hits, so there's certainly something for everyone.
We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.
60-90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.
At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.
We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.
Yes - we can provide either a 60 minute acoustic soloist or acoustic roaming 3-piece, which is perfect for during drinks or dinner. You can see more of this here.
The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.
If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.
Yes – all included in the price. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.
The published guide price is based on our 4-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in Fareham. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.
Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.
Yes.
Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.
We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.
2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.
The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £15 pp rider buyout.
As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
