FAQS

CUSTOMIZING MY EVENT.  How do you customize events?

We can meet your needs no matter how large or small.  Below are some examples:

SPECIAL SONGS.  If we don’t know a song you want, we’re happy to learn up to 5 special requests customized for your event, in addition to your 3 First Dance songs (for wedding receptions).

BAND SIZE.  As large or small of a band as your event needs. From our rocking and budget friendly 7-piece band, to our unbelievable 10+ piece ensemble when you want to take your event to the top! Just ask!

EMCEE.  Can the band emcee the event?

Yes. Basic wedding announcements are easy as pie for us to handle.  

AUDIO NEEDS.  Do you take care of the audio/PA when you play?

Yes.  No matter how small or large, MCRR can provide all the sound equipment needed for your event.

In addition to powering the band, our PA system can be used for announcements, introductions, toasts, and recorded music on breaks.

STAGE/SPACE REQUIREMENTS. How big of a stage do you need?

7-piece and 8-piece band preferred stage size: 16′ x 16′

9-piece and 10-piece band preferred size 16′ x 24′ (minimum 16′ x 20′)

While not mandatory, a stage will enhance your guests' enjoyment of the band, as the band being clearly seen creates a more interactive band/guest experience. Most hotels and many country clubs have staging available.  If not, staging can almost always be rented in your town or by the venue. If there is no stage, please make sure the band has a flat area with the above dimensions to setup.

If the band is setup outside, make sure the space is free of debris, and that the entire area is covered with a tent or large tarp in case of sudden bad weather.

All that said, we can be extremely flexible with what you have. I’m sure we can figure out.

POWER REQUIREMENTS. 

Two Standard 20AMP Circuits (120 VOLTS, 20AMP – 15 AMP minimum) within 25 feet of the band area.  Please make sure the band has their own dedicated circuit.  If the circuit is shared with other electronic equipment, the amount of power the band’s equipment requires might cause a shortage.

LIGHTING.  Does the band provide lighting?

The band provides high quality stage lighting, two light trees (one on each side of the stage).  Our lights remain white during Cocktail and Dinner sets, and only go to color movement during the dance sets.

TRAVEL. How far will the band travel? Internationally?

The group is based out of Nashville, TN and we are available to travel any distance.  We can also usually handle all travel arrangements for shows that require lodging, airfare, and equipment rental throughout the U.S. and internationally.

INSURANCE. Does the band have liability insurance?

Usually, the event venue will provide liability insurance above and beyond all event needs. However, if the venue requires insurance from the band we will gladly supply the venue with our insurance documents.
