Aviemore Acoustic - Acoustic Duo
This Norfolk acoustic duo provides live entertainment for weddings and corporate functions - they will keep your guests entertained without being too loud.
They can provide:
•Romantic wedding music for ceremonies, receptions and functions
•Background cocktail music for cafés, restaurants, bars and parties
•Familiar mellow and lively covers from modern pop to classic jazz
Ideal for venues where space or noise restrictions rule out larger function bands, party bands and wedding reception bands. With simply an acoustic guitarist, an outstanding female singer and minimal amplification, they are also a reliable, courteous and affordable alternative to a string quartet or other wedding ceremony musicians. They always play 100% live with no backing tracks.
Based in Norfolk, they are also available for hire throughout Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, Essex and further afield.
The singeris a seasoned wedding and corporate entertainer with many years of live experience. After leading the school orchestra, she gained a scholarship at the Melody Urquhart Academy of Dance, Drama and Entertainment in Norfolk. She made her first singing appearance at the age of 17 at Pontin’s and went on to work as a Bluecoat and a Greencoat; she even spent some time in the circus!
She has performed with several duos, trios and bands over the years. Beside being a singer, she is also a professional voiceover artiste and multi-instrumentalist, including piano, guitar, trumpet, violin and ukulele.
The guitarist first picked up the guitar aged 13, and has always been keen to explore new approaches to the instrument. From busking at the Edinburgh Festival to performing in several covers bands, including a Led Zeppelin/Deep Purple tribute act, he has a broad knowledge of popular music and styles, which he frequently employs in private tuition and at jam sessions.
He is also a marketing consultant, classic car enthusiast and an authority on the architecture of the London Underground.
The duo typically play two or three sets of between 45 and 60 minutes each. For special occasions and celebrations they can provide incidental music, and have experience of performing as in integral part of ceremonies.
They will select appropriate mellow or lively music to suit the venue, audience and occasion, and are happy to tailor their sets to accommodate special requests. For weddings they are happy to learn up to two additional songs at no additional charge. They never use backing tracks, but are able to provide incidental music over their PA between our performances.
