About
Cover Story is a cover band for hire in Sydney, NSW.
Cover Story play the songs a room already knows. ABBA, INXS, Bruno Mars, Whitney Houston, Kool and The Gang, Dragon's April Sun in Cuba, plus disco and funk that keeps people upright. It works in a club or pub as easily as at a corporate night or a wedding. The band asks for about 5 by 3 metres and sensible street access, and if the venue is awkward they'll come and look at it with you first. Professional PA, lighting and stage packages are available, and the same rig can carry AV for the rest of the function: speech microphones, a projector or TVs for photo presentations. A DJ can be added and run through the same audio setup.
On the day
Like most bands, Cover Story need 5m by 3m at a minimum, plus street access that isn't a nightmare to carry gear through. If the venue is tricky, stairs, a long walk, a tight lift, get in touch rather than hoping it works out. They're happy to meet you at the room beforehand and walk it themselves, which is a lot better than discovering the problem on the afternoon of the event.
Performance options
Beyond the band, there's a professional PA, lighting and staging package available, and the same rig can carry the rest of your function. Speech microphones for the formalities. TVs or a projector if you're running a photo presentation. And a DJ can be brought in for the later part of the night, with the DJ gear wired into the same audio setup so the handover between live band and DJ doesn't involve a gap while somebody plugs things in.
