WE'RE READY TO PARTY!

We're a live soul band based in Perth, Western Australia.

From laid-back grooves perfect for sitting back at cocktail hour to high-energy funk and disco for dancing the night away, our 10-piece band can bring the good-time vibes and big soul sound.

We're available for hire in the Perth metro area and regional WA.

We've performed at The Ellington Jazz Club, The Duke of George, corporate events at Optus Stadium and Crown, weddings at Nikola Estate and Margaret River wineries, city and regional music festivals, city-centre to surf clubs, breweries and even back yards.

Whatever your event—private, public, or corporate—if you're bringing the party, we'll bring the soul. 🎷

Extras

Pay more for a bigger experience
  • ACOUSTIC TRIO/QUARTET
    We always bring our full band, but if you need an extra set of acoustic songs with just vocals, piano, and guitar, we can add that on top.
  • SONG REQUEST
    Have a special song in mind? Let us know, and we can learn it to play live on the night.

Limited budget?

If we think it's a worthy cause or a particularly fun performance for us, we occasionally play for a lower price or waive our gig fee altogether.

If you'd like us to consider your event, get in touch and and we'll see what we can do.

Things we'll need to talk about

Factors that will play a part in pricing
  • LONG EVENT
    If we need to arrive super early, stay super late, or have lots of down time between our sets (often happens with weddings!), we'll have to factor in how many hours we're there.
  • BIG EVENT
    If it's a big budget event or we're the primary attraction, we'll talk about reflecting that in the price.
  • TRAVEL COSTS
    If your event is a long way from our base in Perth, we'll need to cover some travel costs.
  • DIFFICULT ACCESS
    We have a lot of gear, so if your venue has difficulties with access, we'll need to know.
