The act
Cocktails or dinner are natural wedding moments for Amayah's soulful blend of jazz, blues and personal storytelling. Her warm presence can remain understated in the room or become a focused set built around audience connection. Timeless songs are reimagined with an emotional approach, and each performance is shaped around the event's tone and timing. Amayah usually appears alone but can be joined by Velvet Groove when a fuller band sound belongs in the celebration. Listen here, then decide whether her balance of elegance and soulful expression suits your Melbourne wedding.

Good to know
What to expect
Jazz, blues and soul sung with attention to what a song is actually about, which is a different thing from singing it well. Amayah works solo with high quality backing tracks, or brings her band Velvet Groove when the booking calls for it. Three shapes are possible: background music sitting under dinner or a cocktail hour, a feature set for a smaller or themed night, or something more interactive with storytelling threaded between the songs. She turns up prepared and warm rather than grand, and she pays attention to the timing of your event, which matters more than any single song choice.
On the day
Two metres square is enough for the solo setup, and about 4 by 3 metres if the band comes. One standard power outlet nearby covers it. She can bring speakers, mixer and cables, or plug into your in-house PA if you've got one worth using. Parking near the door helps with unloading. Outdoors, a shaded or covered spot is needed to keep sun and rain off the gear and the players. Ambient light is fine for most of it, though an evening booking is better with power for a small spotlight.
Performance options
There is no fixed menu here. Amayah shapes each booking to the night in front of her, so what you get is agreed with you beforehand rather than chosen off a list. Tell her the room, the hours and the mood you are after when you enquire, and the performance is built to match.
