“We were very happy indeed with Sega and the Boombox's performance at our wedding. We chose them because we thought that they would really know how to get the party going and we were not disappointed! We were particularly impressed with how the band were able to judge the mood of the audience and come down off the stage to get involved with the audience. We had a wide range of ages - from young children to people in their 80s and the Band succeeded in getting them all up on the dance floor! Please pass on our thanks for a job well done! Thanks also to you Chloe for your hard work in arranging our booking; it is much appreciated.”

They were perfect from start to finish - Lian was so efficient to liaise with before the event, always answering emails super fast and being really helpful. The band were unbelievable at my wedding - everyone has said how much they loved them!!! We LOVED the lead singer's LimeWire t-shirt. They really brought the energy!!!

“To say we are happy with the performance on the day is an understatement!!! Sega and the Boombox completely exceeded our expectations and absolutely made the evening. We had soooo many comments on how great the band were who did exactly what they said they would! They are lively, engaging, got involved with the dancing and certainly kept everyone on the dance floor during their sets, even people who don’t usually dance! We want to do it all over again!! Sega and the Boombox made it feel like a good club atmosphere and everyone had a big smile on their face! Hopefully the band enjoyed themselves as well!”

The dance floor was full throughout the entire evening and all of our guests were commenting on how amazing and different they were! Not only did the band sing amazingly well, they danced, they rapped, they played the trumpet, they put on accents, they got down on the dance floor themselves, they literally did it all! It was easily the best money we have ever spent! We are so pleased we found them! Thank you thank you thank you, you are incredible xx”

I'm so glad I took their card when we saw them at Cartel in London however many years ago. Thank you also for our in-joke song request of A Whole New World, amazing!

“The band were absolutely incredible - they worked as quickly as they could to get set up despite having a big delay from us with getting the space ready for them. They adjusted their sets and took less of a break in order to get as much live music as possible in for us which we really appreciated. The skill and energy level from all the band members was unreal, and they kept the dance floor full from beginning to end. You could tell how much they were loving being back on stage and we really felt that from their performance. It was truly amazing and completely exceeded expectation. Big, big thank you to the whole crew, from The McAlisters x”

They created an outstanding set list that got everyone up and dancing - going from Britney and Robbie Williams to Rage Against the Machine was a personal highlight. At one point I thought the floor might give way as the whole crowd was jumping around and having the best night. The team were professional and friendly and we couldn't have asked for more from our wedding band. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or to book them for other events!”

“Oh my goodness we CANNOT say enough good words about Sega and the Boombox! All of our guests are still raving about how fantastic they were!

Calling Sega the greatest wedding band of all time would be doing them a disservice. They're not a wedding band - they're not a Bruno-Mars-crooning, smooth-singing bunch of cheese merchants. These guys bring the party like nobody else. We had them at our wedding a few weeks ago and there is not one person I have hung out with since then that hasn't told me how awesome the band were. Obviously, that you grew up with the soundtrack of the 90s is kind of a prerequisite for Sega but if you did, then they are simply mind-blowingly brilliant. The quality of the musicians, the stunning vocals, the pleasingly 90s clothing references, and the raw, unadulterated energy of them all make Sega one of the best live acts I have ever seen.

We were worried about them being a bit niche (i.e. our parents' generation wouldn't dance) but we were wrong. Firstly, the parents did get involved (Nana Joan smashing it up to 50 Cent, In da Club) but they also enjoyed standing back and watching a group of 30-year-old teenagers have an awesome time.

If you're on the fence about them - go see them play live (they play a lot) and they will remove any doubts. We went to see them when I was ill - I was up and dancing within 2 songs and didn't stop.
Crowdsurfing to Rage's 'Killing in the Name of' will be a memory I treasure for ever...

Thank you guys for making our wedding day just THE BEST. xx”

“We just wanted to email to extend our gratitude Sega and the Boombox for their contribution to Air Charter Service’s summer party on Saturday. It was a lovely day, and that was a result of the great activities and entertainment that was provided by all the suppliers who attended. The weather was glorious, but we know these high temperatures make work more tiring, and as a result everybody’s effort and help was greatly appreciated. The music provided by Sega and the Boombox was perfect for the mood of the day, with many people commenting on how great their sets were.”

FAQ

I really want to have a great party with everyone on the dance floor - are you the right band for that?

Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features the biggest classic and current chart hits, so there's certainly something for everyone.

Do you take requests?

We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.

How long do you take to set-up?

Up to 90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.

What time do you play?

At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.

How long do you play for?

We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.

What is the difference between the ‘pre-mixed DJ service’ that comes with the standard package and the 'band member to DJ live' which is an optional extra?

The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.

If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.

Can you provide music for our drinks reception?

Although we do not provide any additional sets for drinks receptions, we highly recommend the wedding ceremony musicians and drinks reception acts featured on the Tailored Entertainment roster.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?

Yes – all included in the price, we also travel with a professional sound engineer. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.

What is the website guide price based on?

The published guide price is based on our 6-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in London. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Our venue has a noise limiter, can you work with that?

Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance and PAT tested equipment?

Yes.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

How much space do you require?

We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.

How much power do you require?

2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.

Do I need to provide food/drinks?

The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £15 pp rider buyout.

Can we see you play live before booking?

As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.

“Sega and the Boombox are the talk of our wedding ! They created an outstanding set list that got everyone up and dancing - going from Britney and Robbie Williams to Rage Against the Machine was a personal highlight. At one point I thought the floor might give way as the whole crowd was jumping around and having the best night. The team were professional and friendly and we couldn't have asked for more from our wedding band. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or to book them for other events!”

“Sega and the Boombox MADE THE PARTY. We loved them so much, but even more importantly, our guests were completely blown away. We honestly cannot speak more highly of them. The trumpet, the drums, the dancing, the crowd interaction, the amazing Tamagotchi necklaces...it was all incredible. THANKYOU THANKYOU from the bottom of our hearts. Jaime and Max x”

“Except for 'You May Now Kiss The Bride' Sega & The Boombox were the most well received part of the whole wedding day! I've never seen our friends and family dance, scream and shout as relentlessly as they did. A particular highlight for my wife and I was crowdsurfing to the Macarena.”

“The band were great. The music was really good and they created a great atmosphere. We had so many compliments about them and their music and I would definitely recommend them. Jackson was really friendly and again created a great atmosphere.

Tailored Entertainment also were very easy to deal with. Very responsive and helpful. Really excellent experience.”

“Oh my goodness we CANNOT say enough good words about Sega and the Boombox! All of our guests are still raving about how fantastic they were!

Calling Sega the greatest wedding band of all time would be doing them a disservice. They're not a wedding band - they're not a Bruno-Mars-crooning, smooth-singing bunch of cheese merchants. These guys bring the party like nobody else. We had them at our wedding a few weeks ago and there is not one person I have hung out with since then that hasn't told me how awesome the band were. Obviously, that you grew up with the soundtrack of the 90s is kind of a prerequisite for Sega but if you did, then they are simply mind-blowingly brilliant. The quality of the musicians, the stunning vocals, the pleasingly 90s clothing references, and the raw, unadulterated energy of them all make Sega one of the best live acts I have ever seen.

We were worried about them being a bit niche (i.e. our parents' generation wouldn't dance) but we were wrong. Firstly, the parents did get involved (Nana Joan smashing it up to 50 Cent, In da Club) but they also enjoyed standing back and watching a group of 30-year-old teenagers have an awesome time.

If you're on the fence about them - go see them play live (they play a lot) and they will remove any doubts. We went to see them when I was ill - I was up and dancing within 2 songs and didn't stop.
Crowdsurfing to Rage's 'Killing in the Name of' will be a memory I treasure for ever...

Thank you guys for making our wedding day just THE BEST. xx”

“We just wanted to email to extend our gratitude Sega and the Boombox for their contribution to Air Charter Service’s summer party on Saturday. It was a lovely day, and that was a result of the great activities and entertainment that was provided by all the suppliers who attended. The weather was glorious, but we know these high temperatures make work more tiring, and as a result everybody’s effort and help was greatly appreciated. The music provided by Sega and the Boombox was perfect for the mood of the day, with many people commenting on how great their sets were.”

“Sega and the Boombox brought our new Guildhall graduates all of the tunes necessary to take them back to childhood just before they went off into the real world to be adults! Just when you think you've heard all of the bangers, they'll give you another one... Top quality band!”

FAQ

I really want to have a great party with everyone on the dance floor - are you the right band for that?

Absolutely! We have been performing at weddings and events for several years and have an infectious live show that guarantees a packed dance floor and a party that you and your guests will remember for years to come! Our repertoire features the biggest classic and current chart hits, so there's certainly something for everyone.

Do you take requests?

We are happy to perform one special request for you - for weddings this is usually the first dance. You can also let us know your top 10 preferences from the repertoire, as well as send up to 30 requests for the disco - so you can be sure to hear all your favourites on the evening.

How long do you take to set-up?

Up to 90 minutes. If you are organising a wedding or event where the evening reception is in the same room as your meal, we often arrive to set-up while the room is turned around - we can have background music playing within around 30 minutes of load in.

What time do you play?

At a time to suit your event, standard prices are for 2 hours of live music, any time between 7pm and midnight.

How long do you play for?

We perform 2 x 60-minute live sets (or 3 x 40 minutes) in the evening and also provide a pre-mixed disco (tailored to your tastes) before and after live sets, so your whole night of entertainment is covered in one booking.

What is the difference between the ‘pre-mixed DJ service’ that comes with the standard package and the 'band member to DJ live' which is an optional extra?

The pre-mixed DJ service is where the band put on a bespoke playlist (you can request up to 30 songs in advance for this) through the PA before and after their live sets. We do this at most events and it works great - the volume of the music would be the same as if you had a DJ.

If you upgrade to the live DJ service, you can still send over preferences in advance, but you will also have a band member selecting and mixing tracks live on the night, as well as taking requests. The DJ will be happy to make important announcements but they will not talk constantly over or between tracks (that's just not our style!). We also think it's important to say that the DJ won't have a separate DJ booth - they will set up in an appropriate space (ideally to the side of the stage) and the PA/lighting will be the same as what is being used by the band.

Can you provide music for our drinks reception?

Although we do not provide any additional sets for drinks receptions, we highly recommend the wedding ceremony musicians and drinks reception acts featured on the Tailored Entertainment roster.

Do you have your own PA and lighting?

Yes – all included in the price, we also travel with a professional sound engineer. You won't have to hire any additional equipment in.

What is the website guide price based on?

The published guide price is based on our 6-piece line-up performing at a venue within 30 miles of our base in London. We charge travel costs for venues further than 30 miles, and if your venue is more than a 2 hours 30 mins drive home, we charge a bit extra so we can book accommodation. For an accurate quote please contact us with your event date and venue details.

Our venue has a noise limiter, can you work with that?

Yes, we regularly work at venues with noise limiters. We are happy to contact the venue in advance of the event to make sure we have all the required information to enable us to plan accordingly.

Do you have Public Liability Insurance and PAT tested equipment?

Yes.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes, as long as we have three weeks' notice we will learn the first dance of your choice.

How much space do you require?

We have played in some very small spaces, but ideally a minimum of around 2.5m x 5m.

How much power do you require?

2 x 13-amp sockets are fine for our system.

Do I need to provide food/drinks?

The band's standard rider is for a hot meal and soft drinks for the band members or a £15 pp rider buyout.

Can we see you play live before booking?

As a professional function band our bookings tend to be weddings and private events that unfortunately we are unable to invite guests to. Our videos are a very accurate insight into our look and sound, and we'd also encourage you to check out our testimonials page to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the band.
