About
Jessie and Tim is a musical duo for hire in Kingscliff, NSW.
Two voices, one guitar, and songs the room already knows. Jessie and Tim work out of Kingscliff playing 70s and 80s classics through to current tracks, reworked unplugged so the music lifts the atmosphere without shouting over the conversation. Jessie's vocal is clean and precise, so the lyrics land; Tim handles rhythm and harmonies. Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay, Landslide, Tennessee Whiskey, Vienna, Runaway, Boys of Summer. They're fully self-contained with a professional PA, microphones and leads, and they need about two metres square, two power points and half an hour each end. Sets run from about 90 minutes to a full four hours. Long lunches, cellar door afternoons, Sunday sessions and weddings. Requests welcome.
Watch
The show
Two voices and a guitar, played at a level where your guests can still hear each other. Jessie's vocal carries the melody, Tim fills in underneath with rhythm and harmony, and the familiar stuff from the 70s and 80s gets pulled apart and put back together unplugged. Newer songs sit in there too. Weddings suit it, so do Sunday sessions, cellar door afternoons and lunches that run long, and the list gets shaped around your room before the day. Set up and pack down are tidy and quick. Got a song you want? Ask.
On the day
They bring the lot. PA, microphones, guitars, every lead. What they need from you is a flat patch about two metres square, two normal power points within reach of it, and roughly half an hour at each end to set up and clear out. Indoors is fine, and so is outdoors as long as there's cover overhead. Volume stays where the room wants it, and they'll adjust once they hear how it bounces.
Performance options
Bookings are sorted by how long you want them playing. The short one runs a couple of 45 minute sets, soft enough to sit under dinner service, tastings or a long lunch. The middle option stretches to about three hours and lifts as the evening goes, which is why pubs, bars and winery nights tend to pick it. The full four hours is the feature version for celebrations and bigger functions. Every booking comes with their own PA, both singers, live acoustic guitar, set up and pack down, and a song list built for your venue. Extra hours can be added, and they'll learn a first dance if you ask early enough.
