I love Latin music and I have hired many latin bands for my events during the last few years. Latin Funkers are without a doubt the best one of them all. Incredibly talented and their fusion of Latin, Pop, Funk is super entertaining. They had us dancing and singing all night long.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Our energy on stage is what people complement us the most. As a lead singer I want to entertain and I take that very seriously.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

We have performed at countless venues across the country such as: Quaglinos, Annabels, Proud London, London Cabaret Club, Jazz Cafe, Ronnie Scotts Upstairs, etc,

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

I've learnt a lot from artists such as Ricky Martin, Michael Buble, Robbie Williams, Elvis Presley, etc. pretty much artists with a very strong stage presence.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Quite a few but probably singing for the Royal Family of Brunei (at their Palace in Brunei) and playing guitar for John Legend twice is up there with my best experiences.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes, our usual line up is: Vocals/guitar, drums/percussion, Cuban guitar, lead electric guitar and bass. We can also larger options adding trumpet, keyboards and female singer.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We can always be as flexible as possible. Please just let us know in advance of any changes.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. We can indeed provide it at request.

How much time do you need to set up?

Normally between 1 and 1.5hrs to set up and do sound check.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Yes we can do it. It's popular that clients asks us to do maybe 1 set acoustic roaming around and then another set or 2 with the PA system.

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

Certainly. If there's some songs on our playlist that you really like and want them to be played just let us know and we'll play them for sure.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Normally our quote includes the PA system. Unless the event exceeds the 150ppl then we'd have to hire a larger PA and that will be at an extra cost, but we can arrange it to make it easier.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £80 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
