The feeling is easy: an acoustic set, one player or three, for the drinks hour. 3's A Crowd play as a solo, duo or trio, and the songbook runs from Adele's Someone Like You through Songbird by Bernard Fanning, Cheap Wine by Cold Chisel and Better Be Home Soon by Crowded House. Requests are welcome, and they'll learn a song they don't know yet, which is how your first dance gets played live. The conversation starts long before the day, so the running order is agreed with you rather than assumed. Weddings and private parties are part of what they do, alongside function nights, and you pick the format that suits your day. Based in Cairns, they suit a couple who want the afternoon and early evening to feel relaxed and sung rather than staged.

Good to know
What to expect
You'll hear from them well before the day. Communication in the lead-up is a big part of how they work, so what gets played and when is agreed rather than assumed. The set itself gets built to your requirements instead of pulled off a shelf, and they turn up and behave like professionals, which sounds like a low bar until you've booked someone who doesn't.
On the day
Space depends on which version you book and what kind of event you're running. A soloist in a corner needs very little. A trio with a bit of gear needs a bit more. Tell them the venue and the format you're after and they'll tell you what they need.
Set List
The acoustic list is long and leans on songs people can sing along to without being asked twice. There's plenty of Ed Sheeran, with Thinking Out Loud and The A Team, alongside Someone Like You by Adele, All of Me by John Legend and A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. Australian material runs deep: Songbird and Wish You Well by Bernard Fanning, Cheap Wine and Forever Now by Cold Chisel, Better Be Home Soon and Weather With You by Crowded House, Downhearted by Australian Crawl, Big Jet Plane by Angus and Julia Stone, Buses and Trains by Bachelor Girl, and Crying Shame and Tip of My Tongue by Diesel. Then the classics that never leave a list: Piano Man, Hotel California, Ain't No Sunshine, Father and Son, Proud Mary, Long Train Runnin', Yellow and The Scientist, Mr Jones, Save Tonight, White Flag, Dreams-era Alanis with Hand in My Pocket and Head Over Feet, and three from 3 Doors Down. They also take requests and will learn a song for you, a wedding first dance being the obvious one.
Performance options
Weddings, private parties, corporate events and Christmas functions are the four things they do most. Pick the format that suits the occasion and they'll build around it.
