Good to know
What to expect
A soprano and a baritone tenor, both classically trained, working the floor rather than filling the background. They talk between numbers and thread stories through the music, so it plays as a show with a shape to it. The songbook is opera aria, musical theatre and crossover favourites. Sets come in 20, 30 or 45 minutes, and the room tends to end up laughing, teary and singing along in roughly that order.
On the day
They always travel with their own microphones and track devices. Where another musician or DJ is covering the rest of the evening, sharing that person's PA is usually the tidiest arrangement, and they're glad to perform with live players too. Otherwise they can supply a PA themselves. A sound check before doors makes a real difference, and they'll want somewhere secure to leave their things while they're on.
