About
Fiona O'Shea & The Passengers is a country band for hire in Doonan, QLD.
Country and rock, played loud enough for a rodeo. Fiona O'Shea & The Passengers run a covers set built on singalong anthems: Wagon Wheel, Folsom Prison Blues, Take Me Home Country Roads and Jolene sitting beside Fleetwood Mac, CCR, the Rolling Stones, AC/DC and Queen. Achy Breaky Heart, Stand By Me, Johnny B. Goode and Ex's and Oh's are in there too. Based at Doonan, the band plays rodeos and festivals as readily as corporate nights, pubs and private functions, and some songs come as duo or full band depending on how it's booked. Sound, lighting and an engineer can be arranged for crowds over 200. Public liability insurance current.
Watch
The show
Loud country with the rock turned up. Fiona's voice carries the singalongs, and the band behind her plays it straight and hard. You get Wagon Wheel, Folsom Prison Blues and Take Me Home Country Roads sitting next to Fleetwood Mac, Creedence, the Stones, AC/DC and Queen. It moves between the easier crowd favourites and the ones that fill a dance floor. Works the same whether the room is a corporate function, a rodeo arena, a festival stage, a pub or a private party.
On the day
If your crowd is over 200, sound, lighting and an engineer can be arranged so the band isn't fighting the room. Ask for it when you enquire rather than on the day.
