Q: Will you learn songs for our event?
A: Yes, this is typically not a problem, as the musicians in CHARISMA are adept at learning new material
quickly.  We do require that the number of special requests be limited to three and that we finalize all
requests at least 60 days prior to your event.

Q: How much time do you need to set up?
A: We generally require at least two hours for proper set up and sound check.

Q: What are your electrical requirements?
A: We need properly grounded outlets, typically two separate 20 amp fuses/circuits (one for the sound
equipment and another for the lights).

Q: How do I book CHARISMA for my event?
A: Preferably via GIGMasters, our online booking agent (
www.gigmasters.com/Music/Charisma), but we
do accept direct contact bookings as well.

Q: Do you play recorded music during set breaks, and how long are your breaks between sets?
A: Yes, we provide a variety of recorded music during set breaks, which are typically 10-15 minutes
(following a 45-50 minute set).

Q: Where can I hear CHARISMA play live?
A: We play regularly at Molly Darcy’s in Danbury CT - please check the calendar for more information.  
It may also be possible to view our performance at a private event, assuming we get prior approval from
our client.

Q: Are references available?
A: Yes.  Please see the GIGMasters site for comments from our former clients.  If you wish, we can provide
the contact information to you directly upon request.

Q: Where can I get a demo CD?
A: Just send us your name and mailing address and we would be happy to send a demo CD to you.

Q: Does CHARISMA play any songs other than those listed?
A: Yes, this is a very active process.  We are constantly adding songs to our repertoire and
focusing/modifying our set lists for various types of events.  For example, some of the songs on our set list
are played only at clubs, while others are played only at formal events.

Q: Will you help me to organize my event so everything runs smoothly?
A: Yes, we can provide excellent advice on how to organize the details of your event and coordinate
activities accordingly.

Q: I attended a wedding recently where the DJ seemed to never stop talking to the guests, and in certain
instances he made somewhat embarrassing/inappropriate comments.  Can I be assured that this won’t
happen at my wedding if I hire CHARISMA?
A: CHARISMA is a professional and experienced group of entertainers – the last thing we want to do is
make anyone uncomfortable!  Our job is to ensure that everyone dances, enjoys themselves, and generally
has a great time.  The focus of any wedding should be the bride (and groom), and we are always
extremely careful to keep that in mind throughout the course of the event.

Q: Will I need to arrange a meal for the band?
A: Yes, this is a standard requirement, especially for a long event such as a wedding.  But, the meal doesn't
have to be what your guests are being served.  Your caterer may have some suggestions for a less
expensive meal to satisfy vendors associated with your event.
