Your wedding can stay at the centre of the room while Rob Nightingale gives the gathering its musical backdrop. An acoustic guitarist and singer songwriter from Perth, he performs covers reaching from older classics into more recent hits. You might place that combination alongside canapes, letting the songs be part of the welcome as people arrive and find one another. Rob aims to play music people enjoy without taking their attention away from the occasion itself. He also works with you on what your event needs, with wedding receptions among the occasions he caters for.

Good to know
What to expect
Rob's view is that background music has a job, and the job is to make the room feel good without stealing attention from why everyone is actually there. He plays songs people know and like, at a level that lets conversation carry on over the top. He's on site at least half an hour before the start to set up and check everything works. Before the day he'll talk through what your event needs so the set arrives already pointed in the right direction.
On the day
He brings the lot along with him. Somewhere to plug in is all he actually needs from your side, plus a bit of cover over the top if the forecast has turned and it's really coming down.
Performance options
Rob is happy to talk through what you need and work out an arrangement that fits it, whether that's a wedding reception or a shorter event booking.
