Jonny cash for the classic lows,frank Sinatra for the crooner feel,Ozzy Osbourne for the rock and roll🤘
We normally arrive 1hr 30mins before the show for set up and soundcheck, we usually do 2x 45 minutes sets or 2x 60 minutes depending on the venues. We find taking a small break between the show to engage with the crowd to be very effective with building up to the second half and finalle.
We love all environments for the different sounds and challenges.
The client can always check out our setlist prior to a show to ensure it is appropriate for the crowd.
