About
Little Pedro is a cover band for hire in Fremantle, WA.
Brit subculture, a brass section and very little patience for people sitting down. Little Pedro play ska and British hits from the seventies onward, and on a good day there are up to nine of them on stage: sax, trombone, trumpet, keys, bass, lead guitar, drums and a lead vocalist, with guests rotating through. The set is Madness, the Specials, Dexys, Amy Winehouse, the Clash, Bad Manners, a bit of Beatles. "One Step Beyond", "Baggy Trousers", "Valerie", "Geno", "Night Boat to Cairo", "Rat Race". They can bring a DJ along to keep things moving between sets. Fremantle based. Stage lighting and a PA with a sound person get the best out of them, and they'll send specs if you need them.
The show
On a good day there are nine of them up there, and the stated aim is that nobody stays sitting down. Little Pedro play Brit music as a proper stage show, brass out front, energy high, and the dance floor usually fills rather than trickles. If you want the night to keep moving after the last song, they can bring a DJ with them and hand straight over.
On the day
This one needs a venue with a bit behind it. Little Pedro ask for a PA, someone running sound, and stage lighting, which is fair when there are up to nine musicians on the deck: sax, trombone, trumpet, keys, bass, lead guitar, drums and a lead vocalist, with guests rotating in and out of that line-up. They'll send full technical specs across if your venue or your production crew wants them, so ask early and pass them on.
