Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

We require 1 large parking space.
We need a performance space of at least 3 meters x 3 meters.
We require at least 1 plug socket.


What information do you require about a venue?

We need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment.
We'd also need to know if there is any sound limit.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

We are completely self-contained.
We provide our PA system to all of our gigs. We are ok with the lighting provided by the venue, would it be natural or artificial.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

We cannot provide music from Spotify, but we could be able to have some tracks as background music.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

We performed the 28th of December on a wooden platform on the Lake of Como, outside, under the blue sky, with no powered systems as requested by the bride and groom, just a guitar with no amp and voice with no mic. It was all a natural background.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love playing!
Weddings and live shows are our favourites, especially when people know the song and start singing with us or when we get requests and we accept (because fortunately we know that song), the smile on the person's face is priceless.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

We started performing together after my then guitarist couldn't come to an already booked gig, so I contacted a guy I knew when the singer he had did not show up at their gig, so I helped (was at the same show that night).
From there, we started performing live during dinners at restaurants and went on with weddings and other events.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I started singing thanks to Anastacia and my guitarist started thanks to Dire Straits and the finger picking of Mark Knopfler.
For the songs we love to perform tracks that are recognizable by the public and what we like, so we love both dancing songs, rock ones, as well as the softer ones.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We arrive at least one hour before the gig to set up and sound check, which is very important.
We normally perform 2 hours with a 10/15 minutes break. Sometimes, if the public is on, we can play longer and add another hour if the venue owner asks us.


Are you happy to perform outside?

We are more than happy to play outside as we are always organised. We just require a power supply closer to where we perform.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

It depends on the gig.
If it's a live show, we have a set repertoire, specific for the night. As we play different genres, we can accommodate specific requests.
If it's a wedding, we message and/or call the clients and ask if they have any requests or a particular mood they want to set during the evening. We limit the requests to 6 songs. We also provide cellphone recordings when they want to listen to how we are working on a particular song, If they really care about it.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe us as professional and accommodating people that loves to make anyone smile.


Would you be able to personalise an experience/service?

Yes, we always try to meet the customer's needs.
If you want to discuss personal changes we can do that.
