About
Mad Tea Party Rock is a cover band for hire in Sutherland, NSW.
A five piece pub rock band out of the Sutherland Shire, formed in 2019 and playing seventies, eighties and nineties classics to rooms that know every word. They work the Shire regularly, plus Wollongong and Shellharbour, and take private parties. The setlist pulls from The Angels, The Black Sorrows, Mental As Anything, Robert Palmer, Bryan Adams, The Rolling Stones, The Black Crowes, Divinyls, Paul Kelly, Mondo Rock, The Sunnyboys, The Black Keys, Midnight Oil and Stevie Wright. Here's the part venues actually rate them for: they arrive early, start on time, and leave the place clean. Three hours of venue access before the downbeat is ideal, along with enough 240v outlets.

The show
Five blokes who've been playing this stuff a long time and still care about doing it properly. The seventies, eighties and nineties material is their patch, and they play it to rooms across the Sutherland Shire, Wollongong and Shellharbour often enough to be regulars at a few of them. Here's what venues keep bringing up: they get there early, they hit the first song at the time on the run sheet, and the room is tidy when they walk out of it.
On the day
Standard band setup, nothing exotic. Three hours of venue access before the start time is what they'd prefer, which gives them room to get the sound right rather than rushing it. You'll also want enough 240v outlets near the stage area to run the lot.
