Photo of Goldplay Goldplay "Brilliant band, great songs enjoyed my night watching Goldplay at the Gov." Based in Adelaide, South Australia 7th January 2026 Lorraine - The Gov Photo of Aden and Simon Music Aden and Simon Music "Absolutely amazing! Totally understood the brief of what we wanted! Everyone was raving about Simon and Aden! We had 3 different musicians at this event and these two were by far the stand outs! I wish I had known when I booked that they also had a further band component. Highly recommend these guys!!! 10/10" Based in Adelaide, South Australia Debbie - Birthday Party - Yankalilla Photo of Adelaide Jazz Quintet Adelaide Jazz Quintet "If experience leads to talent, then they have it in spades! John Stephens (skins), Geoff Miller (Double bass), the amazing Schmoe (Sax), and maestro Peter Merchant (Piano) provide the fabric upon which Samantha sings up a storm & works the crowd with diamond encrusted silk gloves delivering notes that wake the angels!! We will also be treated to a wonderful guest appearance by Jazmine (Samantha’s daughter) who is taking the SA jazz scene by storm. Jazz at its best folks!" Based in Adelaide, South Australia David Lloyd - Nightclub Photo of Acoustic Echo Acoustic Echo "What a great time we had dancing and singing along to many well known songs; Beatles, Stones, Doobie Brothers, America, Eagles, Linda Ronsandt, Jackson Brown, Van Morrison and so much more. We booked the Duo format and were not disappointed. They seemed to be able to do it all from Rock classics to Country, 40’s Swing, Blues and great versions of West Coast music from 70’s and 80’s. It was a great night and we’d love to do it all again. 5 stars for this band.
