The show
Hoochie Mama play loud and they play wide. Rock with a bit of swagger, soulful blues, rustic country, and a couple of disco tunes when the floor needs them. The list spans four decades: Addicted To Love, Rebel Yell, Disco Inferno, Let Me Entertain You, Tainted Love, Valerie. There is an original of their own in the set as well. Cover that much ground and most rooms find something they can shout along to.
On the day
A small stage, ideally 3 by 4 metres, and it needs to be covered. That is the main thing to have locked in before the day, so it is worth confirming with your venue early.
Performance options
Book them for a single set or three lots of 45 minutes, depending on how long you want live music running. Vocal PA and lights come with the booking. It's a three piece: lead vocals and guitar, bass and drums.
