Frequently asked questions

What kind of music does The Austin Beats play?
The band specialises in 1960's pop, beat and rock 'n' roll music. The timeless nature of this music is great for entertaining audiences of all ages at festivals, corporate functions, theatres and weddings. The Beatles and Rolling Stones are as popular as ever, having been covered by artists such as Mcfly and Oasis. This has made The Austin Beats popular with younger crowds, as well as audiences that remember the sixties!

How long do you play for?
The set can be tailored to the individual event. For a typical party or function show, we recommend either 2 x45 minute sets or 2 x 1 hour sets. This is then best complemented by a DJ or with background music. For festivals and venues, the band can be booked to play shorter sets.

How far do you travel?
Although The Austin Beats mainly cover the south east of the UK, the band will travel further. All travel is taken into account when pricing your event.

When is the band available for bookings?
You can book The Austin Beats throughout the year, however certain times of the year are more popular than others. If you are looking to book the band during holiday times, such as Christmas and Easter, or for a wedding reception, it is worth booking well in advance.

We're thinking about booking a DJ, as well as the band, can you help?
Yes. We have a full entertainment package that includes a DJ and all the necessary sound and lighting equipment. This includes all dance floor lighting for venues that don't have an in-house sound or lighting system. If you are working on a budget, we also have our Virtual DJ option. This is an automated system running pre-mixed background, disco or dance music.

How much do you charge?
Many variables are taken into account when pricing the band for your event, such as: travel, sound and lighting requirements, sound check / performance times and any other special requirements. Please fill in the contact form, giving as much information as possible, we will then be able to generate an accurate quote for you.
