Slide McBride

Description

We will ensure that your wedding will be remembered and talked about for many years. Our experience is second to none.
We are different to other bands for three reasons;
1. We specialise in playing for a long time. You can book us for 5, 6 or 7 hours. Our work ethic is second to none. It’s no trouble for us to play 6 or 7 sets.
2. We specialise in playing many different styles of music at the same performance. For a typical wedding audience with many different age groups, this will ensure EVERYONE will enjoy the band’s music.
3. The lead-singer is also a multi-instrumentalist, playing trombone, trumpet, guitar and ukulele. There’s never a dull moment!

FAQs

Pricing is based on a cost per band member.
Pricing generally is based on (but not always) a call time of FIVE hours. This is because wedding receptions are usually a minimum of five hours in duration.
My regular band is a 4-piece, but I can also work as a 3-piece, 5-piece, 2-piece or as solo artist.
We pride ourselves on playing throughout the entire reception, which is typically 6 hours.
If there were no speeches, this would equate into 6 x 45 minute sets.
We usually play;
(i) for pre-dinner drinks,
(ii) throughout dinner
(iii) for dancing
I am the band leader. I am also the singer. I am also a multi-instrumentalist, playing trombone, trumpet, guitar and ukulele.
I can (and often do) work as a solo artist.
My usual band for weddings is a 4-piece. This includes bass, drums and guitar, Plus me (as described above).
I also commonly work as a 3-piece with bass, drums, plus me (on vocals, guitar, ukulele, trombone and trumpet).
Other options include;
(i) 2-piece band, with me + live drums + backing tracks
(ii) 5-piece band where I add a female singer to the 4-piece line-up.
Our repertoire is extremely diverse. Most importantly, we have a sensational song list of rock, pop and dance covers that will fill up the dancefloor. In addition to this, we can play 1920's jazz, bossa nova, ska & reggae, Aussie rock classics, classic crooning jazz, classic hip-hop and latin jazz.
The furthest I've travelled to play at a wedding is Port Douglas in Northern Queensland. Obviously, there are added expenses, but there's always a price.
