About
The Stomps is a cover band for hire in Brisbane, QLD.
Four musicians, matching suits, and a set list that stops somewhere around 1972. The Stomps play electric guitar, bass, keys and drums with three voices in the mix, digging into You Really Got Me, Light My Fire, Born To Be Wild, Itchycoo Park and Green Onions. Brisbane based and insured. They ask for a raised stage with room for four and a drum riser where possible, plus an hour to load in and check sound. Bar residencies, weddings, festivals, vintage car shows, community fetes, street parties, and they'll do a single set or a whole night. If your event has a 60s theme, this is the right shape of band for it.
The show
Four musicians in matching suits, playing loud. The Stomps are a rock four piece: electric guitar, bass, keys and drums, with three of them singing, so the harmonies are properly covered. Energy is the point. It's a packaged band in the old sense, meaning they turn up looking like a band rather than four blokes in whatever they had on.
On the day
A raised stage is the preference, big enough for four musicians, with a drum riser if the venue runs to one. An hour on site for the bump in and sound check covers most events, though it shifts a bit with the venue and the type of night. And if you've already got backline amps or a house drum kit on site, mention it when you book. Knowing that in advance changes what The Stomps load into the van.
Performance options
Nothing fixed. The Stomps put the booking together around what you're running, whether that's one set or a full night of them. They've played bar residencies, weddings, functions and parties, music festivals, vintage culture fairs, street parties, community events and fetes, sports clubs, vintage car shows, and support slots for touring artists. So the shape of the night is yours to describe. Tell them the event and how much music you want in it, and they'll work it out from there.
