FAQ

Questions? We've got you.

Everything you need to know before booking Cover Lesson.

How do I make an enquiry or booking?

Fill out the enquiry form with your date, venue and event type. James will personally get back to you with availability and an accurate quote, including any travel costs.

How much does it cost?

It depends how many playlists (live sets) you want:

  • The Opener (1 set): £850 weekday / £1,150 weekend & bank holiday
  • The Double Drop (2 sets): £1,200 weekday / £1,500 weekend & bank holiday
  • The Full Lineup (3 sets): £1,500 weekday / £1,800 weekend & bank holiday

See the Packages page for full details, plus add-ons like a ceremony performer or a solo pianist between sets.

What's this "pick your playlist" thing?

Every package includes 1–3 live 30-minute sets, and you choose the vibe for each one — think of it like building a Spotify playlist, but performed live by the full band. Mix old skool throwback, dancefloor classics, Gen Z anthems, or anything in between across your sets. Check out the Playlists page for the full breakdown.

Do you charge for travel?

We're based in Gloucestershire and happily travel further afield — travel costs may apply depending on the distance to your venue, and this will always be confirmed clearly at quote stage.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes — a £250 deposit secures your date. Your booking isn't confirmed until the deposit is received.

When is the remaining balance due?

The outstanding balance is due 6 weeks before your event date.

Can we change our playlist choices later on?

Yes — talk to us about your preferences when you enquire. Playlist and song requests need to be finalised by the point your final balance is paid (6 weeks before your event) — no changes can be made after that.

Will you perform our first dance?

Yes — for weddings, your first dance is included as standard. We'll learn any song of your choice specifically for your day.

How long do you play for?

Each package includes 1–3 live 30-minute sets, with an unmanned DJ playlist keeping the music going in between. We perform up to a midnight finish. Need a 4th set? That's available as an add-on for Full Lineup bookings.

Do you provide PA and lighting?

Yes — a full PA and lighting rig is included as standard, and we're fully insured.

How many musicians are in Cover Lesson?

We're a 6-piece: vocals, lead guitar, bass, drums, and piano/guitar, covering full band arrangements across our sets.

Where are you based, and how far do you travel?

We're based in Gloucestershire and are available to travel UK-wide. Just let us know your venue location when you enquire.
