ROAMING SHOWS

"You guys were amazing! Can't thank you enough. Absolutely the highlight!"

Booking HPB
Roaming performances
• Hot Potato Band offers a high-energy, roaming performance featuring a minimum of 6–7 musicians who move throughout an event space, interacting with listeners and creating a lively, interactive and inclusive atmosphere.
• The band performs well-known songs that guests can sing and dance along to. You may also request the band’s original songs if desired.
• If a requested cover is not already on the band’s song list, it can be charted, rehearsed, and performed for an additional fee.
Performance length
• HPB’s arrival will be 30-45 minutes before the scheduled performance time and allow a 30min buffer in the case of event delays.
• The standard booking includes 1x45–60 minute set. In some cases, Hot Potato Band may suggest splitting the set into 2x30 minute sets.
• An additional 30-minute set can be pre-arranged and additionally quoted.
• Breaks between sets must be no longer than 30 minutes unless discussed.
Acoustic vs. Amplified
• Acoustic: Power and staging is not required. Band roams freely in or outside event space and is completely self sufficient.
• Amplified: Sound production is required. Band roams freely within event space and within range of production team. Please see production specs (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MmHU-ZaSX59ceLyU4F0Vlb49LN_t1bQf)for more info. Amplifying the band incurs extra costs for equipment, time onsite and in some cases, extra production team members. HPB supplies most of the equipment required to amplify.
HPB’s Requirements
• Greenroom or space away from the event for HPB to warm up.
• Meals and refreshments are appreciated when the band is booked for 2+ hours onsite.
• Parking must be provided or reimbursed for up to 3 vehicles. If unavailable, please let the band know as soon as possible.
• Accommodation costs may apply if a performance finishes after 10:00pm and the venue is more than 2 hours from Sydney.
• Onsite Contact is required to liaise with the band during the event.
• Quotes will account for the bands arrival time, performance time, location, travel costs and any additional information as outlined in ‘Performance Details’. In most cases, a delivered fee will be quoted.
• A Deposit of 50% is required to secure the booking. 10% of the deposit is non-refundable from the time of booking. The remaining deposit (40%) is non-refundable within 30 days of the event date.
• A Balance invoice will be sent upon the completion of the event (if not requested prior).
If you are looking for additional music throughout your event, HPB can quote for the following to package with a HPB Performance:
• Acoustic Duo (up to 90min)

Bursting with energy, colour, and charisma, this roaming off-shoot of Hot Potato Band is all about igniting unforgettable moments. The Sydney-based brass collective break down the barrier between stage and audience—transforming spaces into dance floors and leaving a trail of smiles in their wake.
For more than 15 years, the band has independently curated and toured shows across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and the Middle East, captivating audiences wherever they go. Unbound by genre or convention, Hot Potato Band has reimagined the traditional brass band as a high-energy dance machine and visual spectacle, powered by their signature blend of fun, spontaneity, and quirky musical charm.
