Adelaide cover bands for hire

Postby carey » Thu Mar 30, 2017 4:32 pm

Ladies and Gents, Does anyone know of an Adelaide based cover band for hire? The Mrs and I are getting married in Feb 2018 and the planning stage is crazy! I would love a band (Pending the price of course) I cant imagine it would be all that dear? considering DJ costs anyway and I don't want a DJ so a band is my preferred option.

Thanks Guys all advice will be appreciated

What do you think a cover band will cost you?

We got these guys for our wedding. They're technically a duo now, but we got their full band (The Gap) to get back together.

I think they were about $1200 for 4 sets over 4-5 hours. (in 2015)

They played a lot of different stuff, and I had a bit of fun with The Darknesses "A Little Thing Called Love" ;)

Red Corduroy formed as a side project to Kerri & Andy's full band, Adelaide coverband, 'The Gap'. After getting more and more requests for an acoustic option, they decided to open up their market and audience and form the duo. After only three rehearsals, they were performing their first live gig at Adelaide's premier live music venues, The Gov on a Saturday night, quickly building a new audience and a busy gig schedule, being booked to be the Official Entertainment at the 2014 South Australian Tourism Awards only a few weeks later. Building on the band's existing setlist, they transformed some heavier material into cool, raw sounds, and also took on some new material adding their own spin, creating a versatile and unique setlist, suitable for a variety of events.

The daughter of musicians, Kerri Mack has been singing all her life. She performed in choirs and singing groups since a young age, singing backing and lead vocals in various cover and original bands in the US and also back in her hometown of Adelaide, Australia. She has been the lead singer of Adelaide cover band 'The Gap' since it's formation in 2010.

Guitarist Andy Harris has played electric and acoustic guitar for many years. He is influenced by popular rock bands ranging from The Beatles to The Darkness and loves to pull out the acoustic guitar as well as shredding his Les Paul! Andy has been the lead guitarist in Adelaide's 'The Gap' since 2011 and also is the lead guitarist of original band 'Deflector'.

I can organise a band for $1k from start to finish in cash.
But they probably need to be able to access to the bar and food.

Of course I'd have to be there to supervise my staff, for OHS.
But we would have Booney banging on drums, Psyber lead vocals, Bennymacca on the bass, Footy Chick on the violin and round it out with the main guitarist being Johno.

My wife's band "The Bluff" play 70s 80s 90s rock and have done a wedding or 2 before. Around the $1200 mark too I believe. Usually 3 sets of a dozen songs.
