Make your corporate event truly stand out with pop punk and college rock covers band, Freshman Year. The trio will make your event feel like those festival days bringing the good times with a repertoire spanning from Blink 182, Sum 41 to Fii Fighters.
With so many live band options on the market, we have taken away the stresses of planning and have come up with the ultimate function band package with the option to tailor the performance and production to your specific needs...
The band were spectacular and absolutely made our night. Everyone commented to us about how good they were. Even my mum, who isn't a fan of pop-punk (which is why we booked Freshman Year) said they were amazing. We honestly can't thank them enough. So, so good.
