A clear and complete tech rider
The band arrives with its own sound desk (console, stage boxes, mics, monitors) and its own sound engineer, so no venue technician is needed. You provide a 220 V 16 A socket near the stage and enough stage space. Main PA and lighting depend on the venue: we plan them together in the quote.
Our tech rider details the stage setup, the power requirements, the stage plan, the dressing rooms and the setup timing (load-in, soundcheck, load-out). Download it and share it with your reception venue.

Having the saxophonist perform right among our guests created an amazing energy that everyone is still talking about.
We hired Quentin and his saxophonist from DJ Prestige Sound for our organization's centennial gala, and they blew our expectations out of the water!
They captured the 1920s Great Gatsby theme flawlessly, transitioning seamlessly from sophisticated cocktail music to a high-energy party. Having the saxophonist perform right among our guests created an amazing energy that everyone is still talking about.
From an organizational standpoint, Quentin was a dream to work with—professional, reliable, and collaborative with all our other event vendors. 5 stars from all of us!

Quentin and his saxophonist from DJ Prestige Sound made our organization’s 100th-anniversary gala an absolute masterpiece!
Our theme was The Great Gatsby, and they embraced it 100%. From the elegant, soft 1920s jazz vibes during the welcome reception to an unforgettable, high-energy dance party later in the evening, the music was perfectly timed and tailored to the crowd.
A massive highlight was the saxophonist, who stepped off the stage and mingled right in the middle of the crowd on the dance floor. It turned the night into a live, immersive show rather than just a standard DJ set. On top of their incredible talent, Quentin was extremely professional and collaborated seamlessly with all our other event vendors to keep the night running smoothly.
If you want top-tier entertainment that elevates your event to the next level, I cannot recommend DJ Prestige Sound enough! Thank you, Quentin!

Ongelooflijk goed; Manon was de perfecte saxofoniste voor ons trouwfeest.
Communicatie met prestige was zeer professioneel, ze hebben rekening gehouden met onze song keuze, hebben ons intro lied gespeeld toen we de zaal binnen kwamen. Echt top om met hen samen te werken, zeker een aanrader!

Frequently asked questions
Before you book…
Everything you need to know about the What The Funk band.
How much does a What The Funk concert cost?
The What The Funk alone rate is 3 000 € excl. VAT (3 600 € in 2027) for a 2 h concert with 10 musicians and their sound engineer. The WTF + DJ package at 3 500 € excl. VAT (4 200 € in 2027) adds a Prestige Sound DJ before and after the band to extend the evening until 4am. Main PA and lighting are priced separately, depending on the venue, in the quote.
How many musicians make up the band?
The What The Funk band is made up of 10 professional musicians: 2 lead singers (Pierre-Emanuel and Marylène), a brass section (saxophone, trumpet, trombone), a rhythm section (drums, bass, percussion), guitar and keyboards. This complete line-up faithfully recreates the energy of the funk, soul, disco and Motown classics — from James Brown to Bruno Mars.
What repertoire does What The Funk play?
The repertoire has 47 songs of funk, soul, disco and Motown: James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Earth, Wind & Fire, Prince, Kool & The Gang, the Jackson 5, Aretha Franklin, the Bee Gees, Jamiroquai, Bruno Mars, all the way to Vulfpeck and Cory Wong. The full list, by style, is further up this page.
Does the band bring its own equipment?
Yes, for the stage: What The Funk brings its own sound desk (console, mics, monitors) and sound engineer, so no venue technician is needed. Main PA and lighting depend on the venue: we price them separately in the quote, for the band alone as for the WTF + DJ package. See our tech rider for installation details and power supply requirements.
Can you combine WTF with a DJ to extend the evening?
Absolutely. A Prestige Sound DJ opens the evening (drinks reception, dinner), the What The Funk live band takes over for a 2h concert, then the DJ takes the reins again until 4am. The transitions are worked out in advance for a smooth flow. The WTF + DJ package at 3 500 € excl. VAT (4 200 € in 2027) covers the band, a DJ from start to finish and the collaborative playlist; main PA and lighting are priced separately, depending on the venue.
How long does the concert last?
The standard show lasts 2 hours, usually split into 2 sets of 45 minutes separated by a 20-30 minute break, or a single 2h set depending on the flow of your event. We set the timing with you during the preparation meeting so that it fits perfectly into your evening (after dinner, to open the dance floor, during the drinks reception, etc.).
What stage space is required?
To accommodate the 10 musicians comfortably, we recommend a stage of at least 6 m x 3 m (ideally 8 m x 6 m). If your venue has no stage, we can play at floor level on an equivalent clear area. All the details (electrical power, access, dressing rooms) are specified in our tech rider.
Does the band travel everywhere in Belgium?
Yes, What The Funk travels throughout Belgium (Brussels, Wallonia, Flanders) and to Luxembourg. Travel is free within a 50 km radius of Brussels. Beyond that, travel costs of 0,55 €/km apply. The band has played from Vielsalm to Tournai and from Dinant to Enghien.
Where has the band played?
On festival stages (LaSemo in Enghien, Folestival, Recover Festival in Ciney, Tournai Jazz Festival), at town fairs (Fête de la musique in Evere, Schaerbeek, Auderghem, Lasne), at The Music Village club in Brussels, and at many weddings, from Château Bayard to Château de la Rocq. More than 40 gigs since 2021.
Is What The Funk a cover band?
Yes. The band covers the classics of funk, soul, disco and Motown, arranged for its own line-up: two singers, a horn section and a full rhythm section (drums, bass, guitar, keys, percussion). The full repertoire is higher up on this page.
