About
Ultimate Distraction is a cover band for hire in Adelaide, SA.
Four pieces, fully live, and a strong Australian streak running through the lot. Ultimate Distraction play rock from the seventies to now, with Dragon, AC/DC, The Angels, Wolfmother, Divinyls, Baby Animals and INXS all in the book alongside international material and the odd one hit wonder. The lead vocalist also plays saxophone and keyboard, which is where songs like Johnny B Goode get their extra kick. There's a jazz set too, handy for dinner shows and mixed crowds. Adelaide based, with full PA, stage lighting, a sound engineer and music between sets. For outdoor gigs they'll need a stage and a marquee.
The show
Four musicians, all of it played live, nothing on tape. The front is a female vocalist who doubles on saxophone and keyboard, backed by lead guitar, bass and drums, and there's a sound engineer running the desk rather than the band juggling it between songs. It's pitched loud and energetic.
On the day
PA gear and stage lighting come with the band. Outdoor bookings are the exception: for those you'll need to have a stage in place and a marquee over it before they arrive.
