Country, blues, folk, pop and reggae meet in Detour West's entirely live sound. Karen Hunt plays guitar, Steve Packer plays harmonica and both contribute vocals, giving the duo distinct instrumental and vocal colours. Before moving to Queensland in 2024, they performed more than 1,200 times in Western Australia under the name Short and Curly. Their wedding repertoire can draw on unexpected covers as well as original songs the act regards as a particular strength. This suits couples who want a seasoned duo whose identity moves freely across genres instead of staying neatly in one category.
Watch Detour West perform and get a feel for their sound, style and fit for your wedding.

An EV50 tower rig and the lighting both travel with Karen and Steve, which is more than enough for the rooms and lawns a folk and country duo usually gets asked into. Two things are worth sorting on your end. One is a power supply near where they will stand. The other only applies outdoors: put some shade over the playing spot, because gear and players both suffer in open Queensland sun. Nothing else needs booking in.
