The act
Acoustic guitar, soulful singing and live loops let Chelly Parisi move from calm songs into dance anthems. Her repertoire crosses pop, soul, blues, rock and rhythm and blues, sometimes joining several songs in a long medley. At a wedding, she can begin with guitar while guests settle in and later switch to backing tracks. Disco and current dance music shape that later part of the wedding performance once guests are ready to move. Hear her when the reception turns from relaxed conversation towards the floor and both sides of the act can meet.

Good to know
What to expect
Just a guitar, a voice and loop pedal doing more than you'd think. Chelly builds beats and layers underneath herself, so the sound is bigger than a solo acoustic act usually manages. The set moves. Laid back tunes early, dance anthems later, and plenty of songs in between that people can't help singing along to. It works as background and it works as the reason everyone's on their feet, depending on where you put her in the night.
On the day
For local gigs Chelly brings her own PA and sets it up herself, so there's nothing to organise. Interstate is different. If you're booking her outside Victoria, the PA needs to come from your end, along with travel and accommodation arrangements. Worth sorting that out in the first conversation rather than close to the date.
Performance options
There's a second version of the act without the guitar, where Chelly sings over backing tracks instead, and the material shifts across to disco and top 40 floor-fillers. You can also have both across one night, and that's the option worth considering for a party. She starts on acoustic guitar and keeps it relaxed while people are eating and talking, then switches to the backing tracks once the room is ready to move.
