Prices for functions such as Weddings, Corporate Events and Anniversary Parties are always by negotiation but, as a guide, our standard 2024 price within the Kent, Sussex, or Surrey area is £1250 for the following:

• 5 piece band with male & female vocals
• 2 hour total performance
• Max time from set up to set down: 6 hours (e.g. 5:30 set up, 11:30 set down)
• DJ software for recorded Party and Background Music (Streaming via Tidal/Apple Music if WiFi and/or good mobile signal available)
• Full PA with subs + lighting

However if we can set up a bit later, or if the event is not on a Friday or Saturday, or maybe is out of season, we are happy to discuss lower rates. Conversely, if you need us to set up earlier, finish later or travel further, the price is likely to rise. If this guide price is within your budget, please call to discuss details and, subject to availability, we will make a firm offer with no surprises and no VAT.

Below you will find an overview of some options the Impressions Party Band offers:

For those occasions when the house is ready to rock as soon as possible, this is our standard set.

Ready to go when you are, we typically play 2 x 1 hour sets (with a couple of extra floor filler encores at the end of course). We normally like to take just a short refreshment break during which your DJ or our Disco will keep the music going - or perhaps you need to schedule some announcements / speeches, or food in the interval. We will fit with your requirements.

This unique package sets the mood with a 40 minute ‘unplugged’ set followed later with a 80 minute full-on party set with NO breaks

Have you ever been to an event where the band crashes into your after-dinner coffee conversation before the party has really begun? It’s a common scenario which drives your guests to the bar - not because the band is bad but because the timing is wrong!

This package avoids that problem. Once dinner is finished or whilst your evening guests are settling in, we perform a 40 minute set of popular, danceable songs but in a relaxed ‘unplugged’ style. Those who wish to can dance along, whilst those who prefer conversation can chat happily with a great musical ambience that doesn’t overpower.

We then take a break - perhaps coinciding with an evening buffet, cake cutting, presentation or other event. This break may well be up to an hour long.

On our return, it’s like having a different band… it’s non stop PARTY time for 1 hour 20 minutes. And of course our disco is available afterwards.

Our unplugged band is ideal for events that are a little more low-key or in venues with a sound limiter fitted.

You still get the full band, uptempo dance tunes and a lively performance - however we keep the volume down by using special ‘hot-rod’ drum sticks and more acoustic instruments

Whilst not essential, we prefer to perform with a dedicated Sound Engineer who also acts as DJ when the band is not playing. This is highly recommended because:

• The evening will flow much better, no awkward gaps when the band takes a break
• Any announcements taken care of
• Disco requests taken at any time
• The band’s sound is properly balanced at all times - hard to do when you’re performing
• The lighting is better controlled and not just left in auto mode

For the full on party band we can add a 2 piece (£360) or 3 piece (from £540) Horn Section - a fantastic addition when the emphasis is on funk and disco. As our horn players are freelance it is advisable to book them early. We don’t usually recommend a horn section for the unplugged band where volume levels are critical.

A second keyboard player is great when emphasising some 80's / EDM / Club type music. Additional backing vocalists also make a great addition for larger events. A second guitarist is great for rock. Whatever the musical requirement, we can usually supply subject to notice.
