FAQ

What time will the band arrive to set up?

We will arrive one hour before our starting time to set up.
Setting up generally take 30 minutes, then we have 30 minutes up our sleeve to relax prior to starting
We do NOT do sound checks.

Can you learn a song for out bridal dance?

We can learn a maximum of one song
Learning specific songs is very time consuming, that why we limit this to only one song
Please note that you will get our version of that song
The song will (more than likely) end up sounding quite different to the original
If you are practising dance steps to a particular song, you will be better off using a recording of the original version of the song. I can play this for you (nice & loud) through my PA

Can I, or one of my guests, sing a song with the band?

Most definitely
It's best to pre-arrange this, so we can make sure we play the song in the best possible key for the singer.

Having heard Slide McBride play at functions previously, when we were deciding what music and style of music for our wedding reception, including pre-dinner drinks and canapes, we didn't look any further than booking Slide McBride. We hired a 3 piece band which worked well at our intimate reception with the band playing out on the deck for our guests while they enjoyed pre-dinner drinks and canapes. Light background jazz music hit the spot during dinner service and then things really cranked up with all the guests hitting the dance floor for a bit of boogy-ing! Highly entertaining, Slide McBride were a hit with all our guests, from youngsters through to the older members of our family. We'd book them again in a heartbeat!

Thanks Diane...and it was a thrill to have you son, Harry, join us on guitar for some of our dance set. He's a real talent!

We were torn between a wedding band and a DJ - turns out we found the complete package! Slide was an absolute highlight of our reception, he and his band had everyone up and dancing before the mains were served. He performed solo for part of the evening, accompanied by his band in the latter part of the night, and finished as a DJ. This variety allowed us to tick all the boxes for an entertainer. The vibe of the night was perfect. If you have been unsure of your wedding entertainment up until now, let this review sway you. He is the real deal! Slide - we cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful evening!

Slide and band made our wedding unforgettable! We have had non-stop comments from family and friends about how amazing their performance was and how they involved themselves in the crowd. Also a massive kudos for learning our wedding song which was not an easy one a few weeks out from our big day!
