The first drinks at your wedding could have an acoustic soundtrack from Rod Collins, before you consider his livelier one person band approach. His singing sits with twelve string guitars and percussion, drawing on hits and classics intended for a shared singalong. More than thirty years of playing include touring within Australia and overseas, a substantial musical history behind the performance. You can choose songs and request special numbers or dedications, making room for the music with particular meaning to you. That personal song would be a lovely thing to hear as the evening gathers everyone together.

Good to know
What to expect
Rod Collins runs the whole thing so the event goes the way you want it. He brings all his own PA and lighting, which covers both the sound and the look of the space. You get a say in the songs, can ask for particular ones, and can work speeches or dedications into the performance. The week before your event he goes through every detail with you and changes whatever needs changing.
On the day
Very little, as it turns out. Access to power, and around six square metres of floor to play in. Rod Collins covers everything else himself, PA and lighting included, so the venue is not being asked to source equipment or hold space for a large rig. Six square metres fits in the corner of most function rooms.
