The act
Everything you hear from this Brisbane band is played live. No backing tracks, no laptop filling in the gaps, and a sound engineer comes with them so someone is actually mixing the room rather than hoping the levels hold. The stage lighting gets set to your reception colours. They're musicians with day jobs who keep doing this because they want to, and it shows in how they handle a night: speeches, rain delays, a formality running twenty minutes late, all absorbed without fuss. The repertoire runs past 120 songs, pop through rock through dance floor staples, and a typical show is three to four hours built to climb. Softer material while people arrive and eat, then Dua Lipa and Chappell Roan once the floor fills, then the nostalgic rock and pop to finish. They bring PA and lighting for rooms up to about 300.

Good to know
What to expect
Everyone in this band has a day job. They play because they want to, and that comes through in how the night is handled rather than in anything they say about it. Speeches run long, rain arrives, a formality slips twenty minutes. All of it gets absorbed without anyone making a face about it. What you get musically is a tight show played live, with a dedicated engineer mixing the room so the sound holds up rather than drifting. And they're quick to answer when you're organising it, which is worth more than most people expect until they've dealt with a band that isn't.
On the day
They bring the full PA and stage lighting themselves for anything up to roughly 300 guests, so a bare room works fine. What they need from you is a stage around five metres by three, and four power outlets within reach of it. Outdoors adds one requirement: cover overhead. Not for comfort, for the gear, because a wet PA is the end of the night. Larger than 300 and extra equipment and crew get brought in to match the room.
Performance options
A standard booking is a four hour show and it includes everything: all the band members, the mixing engineer, the full PA and the stage lighting. From there it's about what your event needs. A pub or live music room takes the existing repertoire straight up. Corporate work usually means formal dress and an early setup so nobody is soundchecking over your guests. Weddings vary the most, since some want acoustic music at the ceremony and the full band later, and others just want the reception. Private parties run like the venue shows.
