You will have roughly 10 mins to set up and 15 mins to play. There will be two tables to use for setup (if needed) and one performer will set up while the other is playing. We’ll have a few DI boxes, and vocal microphones available, as well as a sound engineer to assist with set up and mixes. Bring your own leads to connect your instruments to DI boxes – and if you have any specific set up needs, get in touch, and we’ll try to accommodate.
