The act
During wedding dinner, Bonsai can keep the room relaxed as a trio before Bounce brings the full band into the reception. The Melbourne musicians have played together more than one thousand times across a career exceeding ten years. Their repertoire spans the sixties through the 2010s, with particular strength in dinner songs, party music and pub classics. Requests are encouraged and specific songs can be learned for the occasion, giving a meaningful wedding choice room in the set. This suits a couple who want one experienced group to cover calm listening, singalongs and dancing in two sizes.

Good to know
What to expect
Same musicians, two sizes. BONSAI is the trio, BOUNCE is the full band, and both come out of the Melbourne cover band world with more than ten years of gigs behind them, over a thousand shows between them. Members have played in NITRO, HIGHRISE and THE EGO HAS LANDED. What they're actually good at is reading which night they've walked into. Want quiet dinner music? That's fine. Want the room dancing? Also fine, and they'll push for it. Requests and singalongs are welcomed rather than endured, and the songlist is deep enough that most requests land.
On the day
Cover over the band where the weather or the venue calls for it, easy access to power, and 90 minutes minimum to load in and set up. Give them the full hour and a half rather than squeezing it, especially if the gear has to come up stairs or across a lawn.
Set List
The songlist runs from the 1960s to the 2010s and keeps growing. Laid back dinner music is one specialty, party music the other, particularly the 60s through 80s material that gets people dancing, plus the pub classics everybody knows the words to. And if there's a specific song you want for your wedding or event, they'll learn it for you at no extra cost, within reason.
Performance options
Two sizes to choose between: the trio, or the full band. Wedding bookings can cover the reception on its own, or the ceremony and reception together where both are at the same venue. Private functions, events and pub gigs are booked separately and worked out with you.
