Archie Rye is a Brisbane City-based musical trio.
Rock, pop and Australian favourites arrive one after another, giving Archie Rye plenty of ways to meet a mixed wedding crowd. The trio has played hundreds of weddings and other events, with experience across most genres rather than one narrow style. Their repertoire stretches from Johnny B Goode and Brown Eyed Girl to Wonderwall, Everlong and Sex on Fire. For your ceremony, Simon can play the entrance, register signing and walk out, learning a requested song when it isn't already in the book. Later in the reception is where Archie Rye belong, when that broad song list can carry the room into dancing.
Watch Archie Rye perform and get a feel for their sound, style and fit for your wedding.

Hundreds of weddings, corporate functions and private events sit behind this trio, and it shows in how little fuss there is on the night. They cover most genres, so a mixed room doesn't get stuck with one style for four hours. Good music, played by people who've done it enough times to make it look easy.
A power source, and that is genuinely the whole list. All the sound equipment and all the lighting arrives with the band, gets set up by them, and goes home with them at the end of the night.
The song list covers a lot of decades. Rock and roll standards like Johnny B Goode, La Bamba, Tutti Frutti and Twist and Shout sit near Sultans of Swing, Layla, All Along the Watchtower, The Joker and Magic Carpet Ride. Australian material runs deep with Khe Sanh, Down Under, To Her Door, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again, Better and My Happiness territory. Then the 90s and 2000s: Everlong, Smells Like Teen Spirit, About a Girl, Mr Jones, When I Come Around, Sex on Fire and Last Kiss. Wonderwall, Brown Eyed Girl, Superstition, No Woman No Cry and 500 Miles are all there too.
The schedule bends to whatever you've planned, though four 45 minute sets is the usual shape of a night. For weddings, Simon can cover the ceremony as well as the reception. Tell them your songs for the aisle walk, the first dance, the register signing and the walk out, and if it's not already in the book they'll learn it.
