The act
A soulful voice over acoustic guitar or piano, with the odd song in Italian folded in among the English ones. Alyssa Cavaleri is a Sydney vocalist based in Newington whose sets move across pop, soul, acoustic and jazz-inspired material. Stand By Me, Wicked Game and Isn't She Lovely sit near Riptide, Valerie and Cher's Believe among the most requested. For a wedding she'll play the ceremony on its own or with the cocktail hour, then sing live over a DJ or with a second musician once the celebration is under way. She's happy to learn a song that matters to you and shape the rest around the mood you're after, relaxed but polished. A natural fit for a couple who want one singer from the aisle to the dance floor, and for a family who'd love a verse in Italian.

Good to know
What to expect
Alyssa turns up early, gets set up, and tunes the sound to the space so nothing is too loud or too thin. The performance itself is relaxed but polished, which is the balance most weddings, corporate functions and private events are after. She's happy to learn a song that matters to you, and shapes the rest around the mood of the occasion.
On the day
A standard power outlet, and roughly 2m by 2m of space to set up in. For outdoor performances she needs shelter. Parking nearby helps if it can be arranged. All the sound gear is hers, and it's sized for small to medium events.
Set List
The repertoire crosses pop, soul, acoustic and jazz-flavoured material, mixing older songs with recent ones. Among the most requested: Stand By Me, Sunday Morning, Wicked Game, Crazy by Gnarls Barkley, Believe by Cher, Dreams, Dancing in the Moonlight, Isn't She Lovely, Riptide and Valerie.
Performance options
Solo acoustic on either guitar or piano is the core booking. From there you can add wedding ceremony music, or a ceremony and cocktail hour package. She also performs live vocals alongside a DJ, or as part of a duo. Packages get shaped around the style of your event and how the timing runs.
