ABOUT

As a writing/ performing duet, we a looking at getting our live outfit happening again. We have a very unique and distinct sound. It has elements of ED, synthpop and alternate rock.
We write all our own songs.
No beginners please ( sorry )

Who we are looking for to join us :
talented drummer, ( able to play to click for live )
bass player
guitarist. ( not too heavy or too rocky though).
pro backing singer ( down the track )

About us as people....
Me, Wayne . I play keyboards ( performing live, i play as much as i can with 2 hands ) / songwriter / produce also / backing vocalist

About Bec. She is a wonderful, easy going, super talented song writer/ recording artist / singer.
Lyric genius ! Bec is very passionate about music.

** Live Act Info **
We have Incorporated live drums into our live set.( mainly electronic samples combined with rock sounds )
We do play to backing tracks to complement our sound but can actually play without it ( with bass and drums )
We do prefer more raw and stripped back live performances than sterile karaoke backing tracks. We did start out with over done backing tracks but quickly learnt its not the best way . We also found live electronic / drums into our setlist gives it energy and liveliness that is essential for sounding pro .
Vocals : We harmonize together . I tend not to put any backing vocal tracks into our play tracks as it is overkill . (unless it is a purposely sampled vocal effect )

** Fun Facts about our last Live Gig ** :
We performed as a trio , with vocalist, drums and keys,
performed 18 original songs
had everyone dancing , even had oncore at end, ( for real )
( ** techy side ** )
realtime synced dmx lights, ( lazer and movers )
real time voice harmonizer fx , ( midi )
real time keyboard patch change ,
real time drum patch changes ( eg verse to chorus )
have own foldback mixer set up ( with FOH splits too ) !
8 tracks of backing tracks per song.

We do love our music !
With a bit of hard work put in from all, hopefully we can book ourselves for gigs and all get paid.
Always open to other peoples ideas too.
