The long, slow afternoon between the ceremony and the speeches is where this pair belongs. AlCat is Alan Rosewarne on voice and guitar and Catherine Hannaford on violin, and the violin is what a guest turns around for. The songbook draws on Neil Young, Cat Stevens, Elton John and Crowded House; a set might move through Harvest Moon, Father and Son, Rocket Man and Distant Sun. Listening made easy is their own phrase for it, and it fits: familiar songs, played well, never demanding the room. It scales from a small gathering to something closer to a concert, shaped to your room and your guests before the day. Based in Adelaide, and well suited to a couple whose taste runs to the singer songwriters and who want the afternoon of their wedding to feel unhurried.
Watch AlCat perform and get a feel for their sound, style and fit for your wedding.

Alan Rosewarne sings and plays guitar, Catherine Hannaford plays violin, and the combination is what makes this pair worth hearing. The songbook is built from writers whose material has lasted: Eagles, Cat Stevens, Neil Young, Crowded House, The Beatles, Elton John, Ronan Keating, Split Enz, Jimmy Webb. It suits a small gathering, a quiet afternoon, a big milestone occasion or something closer to a proper concert. Easy listening in the truest sense, played properly.
Around 9 square metres of performance space, on a solid, stable floor. A raised platform or dais is nice but not necessary. The spot needs to be out of direct sun and out of the rain. The duo brings its own PA, which covers audiences up to 100 people. Larger crowds need a bigger system and lighting, arranged in advance.
A set moves through songs people have carried around for decades. Harvest Moon and Heart of Gold from Neil Young. Rocket Man and Daniel. Take It to the Limit, Father and Son, Hard Headed Woman, Comes a Time. Then Crowded House with Don't Dream It's Over and Distant Sun, alongside When the River Runs Dry, Rikki Don't Lose That Number, Make It With You and When You Say Nothing at All. There's more where those came from.
Packages are put together around the audience, the occasion and the room you're in, and they're happy to sort that out with you before the day.
