The room gets blues, ballads and reshaped rock songs alongside stories drawn from Geoff Achison's years of travelling with a guitar. The Melbourne songwriter has performed internationally, from the American south and England to festivals between Byron Bay and Edinburgh. His solo acoustic show lets the talking between songs matter almost as much as the music itself. Couples can choose three shorter sets, one or two hour long performances, or a straight two hour concert for a more attentive wedding room. The moment to hear Geoff is after dinner, when a song and the story behind it can hold the room together.
Watch Geoff Achison perform and get a feel for their sound, style and fit for your wedding.

Geoff turns up with his old acoustic guitar and plays blues, ballads and a few rock songs reshaped for one player. The talking between songs is half of it. He's toured a long way and things went wrong in most places, and he'll tell you about it. Set length is your call. Three sets of three quarters of an hour each, a pair of hour-long sets with encores on the end, a single hour, or one straight two-hour concert if you want it treated as a show rather than as background.
Simple rig, two channels. One for the guitar, one for the vocal mic. That's it, so almost any venue desk will take him. If the room has no sound of its own, he can bring a vocal PA and lighting with him, which is worth flagging when you enquire.
The show scales to whatever your night is. Three sets of forty five minutes suits a pub or a function that runs long. One or two hour long sets with encores works for something tighter. Or a straight two hour concert if the audience is there to sit and listen. Geoff's own rig is simple, one channel for guitar and one for vocals, so a house system handles it easily. Where there isn't one, a vocal PA and lights can be supplied, sized for an audience of up to two hundred.
