The One Hit Wonders (The Bandeoke Band)

Nick Cole — Sun, 31 Jul 2011 23:00:00 +0100

The One Hit Wonders are a bandeoke band. At its most basic level Bandeoke is probably best described as karaoke with a live band. But that's not the whole story. We pride ourselves on giving an experience that is unforgettable. From coming on stage in a cloud of smoke to having an energetic band around you, to a sound system and lighting rig that would put most professional venues to shame, we ensure our shows give the full rockstar experience.

As the craze of Bandeoke starts to take hold of the nation there are a few bands coming into the market, each promising an excellent evening. We have worked hard to get our nights to be the cream of the crop by thinking hard about many different aspects of your party.

� We are all professional musicians

� We are first and foremost a Bandeoke band, who occasionally play covers gigs. Not the other way round. We practice knowing that people who aren't used to singing with a band are coming on stage to be with us. We therefore learn the songs to be able to cater to them. We're totally flexible when it comes to performing the song � we follow the singer rather than the singer following the band!

� We are the only Bandeoke band that offer the full rockstar experience � including a 36 piece lighting rig and 5000 watt PA system, with 2 foldback speakers specifically for the singer.

� We have an ingenious screen giving the singer the words for the song, without getting in the way of them rocking out as hard as they can.

� Every covers / Bandeoke band in the world say they give an energetic stage show, then when your see their videos you see something very different. Just looking at our video shows we know how to make the stage our own and to give the person on it with us the time of their lives.

� We currently offer around 300 songs but are working to get to 500 as soon as possible so there is a song for every taste and every age.

� If you want to make your night even more special we offer several Themed Nights to work around your specifications for the evening. We find that people especially enjoy the Guilty Pleasures. Luckily we do too!

� We are the only Bandeoke band who offer the Request A Song function � if your favourite song is not on our list just send us a message and we will learn it for your event!

� We have a smoke machine for coming on stage, a haze machine to make the lasers look great and even a snow machine to make you extra Christmassy when that time of year comes again.

� We can record your whole evening and give you a CD to play to your friends / family / boss to remind them of their drunken out of tune rendition of Sk8er Boi forever more.
