The Lonely Mister Punch
Based in Laneham in Nottingham, The Lonely Mister Punch are a Ceilidh barn dance band that services the East Midlands, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire. They cater for weddings, parties and public events.
What do you need to know from an organiser in order to provide a comprehensive quote?
We have an excellent PA system and fantastic instruments, which unfortunately means we cannot accept bookings in real agricultural barns because of the dust. The venue should be big enough to get as many people dancing as possible, and the band will require space to set up and perform. An area of 4 metres x 2 metres is probably adequate but we can squeeze up a bit as we are all good friends!
What advice would you give to a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
What sort of Ceilidh do you want? A traditional old time band or a more folk rock type - like us as we have all grown up with great rock and dance music. We are a fun band and enjoy what we do and hope that the audience can sense this.
Please tell us a little bit about how and why you started the business.
As a band, we love playing and seeing people dancing to what we play. We love dressing up as well, so expect the full Steampunk look. Some of us have been playing together for over twenty years and have brought in like minded musicians to join us to make The Lonely Mister Punch a dynamic ceilidh band for the twenty first century.
Please tell us about a booking you've had through Add to Event, how did it go? Would you recommend us to others?
Add to Event are great and we even feature a link from our own website, they're that good.
