What do the band do once set up?

If you want to know everything about Doctor Chocolate then visit our main website!

Doctor Chocolate arrive at a venue for 6pm and we take 90 minutes to set up and sound check.  This means that the band will be ready from 7:30pm.  After set up we normally put on one of our playlists on the Ipod – it can be easy listening or we can crank it up and put something on that is more for party dancing!  We have a large selection of playlists so there will be something for everyone.

After set up Doctor Chocolate will often go and sit in a room near by where we can leave our suitcases and get changed in private. However, sometimes the venue has entertainment available!

Here you’ll see the naughtiest members of Doctor Chocolate in the stocks!  At the same time members of the band were off playing croquet or swing ball!  It’s all rock and roll!Doctor-Chocolate-in-the-Stocks Good job the sun was out, there were no rotten fruit to throw and we were let out on good behaviour after a short time!

One Direction Shred

Doctor Chocolate are a fully live 9-piece wedding, party and function band based in the South West.

We always perform fully live – there are no backing tracks involved – what you see is what you get.  We have 25 videos on our website that were recorded at a live charity event – this shows the band as we would perform for any event that we are booked for! Have a look at them here

However, we have recently been sent this link to see a “shred” of the very famous One Direction performing.  This shred is so funny!  This is actually not One Direction performing – it is the work of a very funny individual who has over-dubbed the lads in the band and this was the result.

Enjoy!
