About
Whiskey Hawkins is a musical duo for hire in Sydney, NSW.
Piano, guitar and voice, working the 60s and 70s. Whiskey Hawkins open smooth while your guests find their seats and their drinks, then build as the night does, the keys and acoustic guitar filling out under the vocals. The songbook is made of names people trust: Etta, Aretha, Dusty, Nina, Carol King, the Beatles, Queen. They arrive early, set up before anyone sees them working, and turn up dressed for the occasion. They bring quality instruments, a PA suited to small and medium rooms, and lighting. All they need from you is a power point. The duo is insured.
Watch
The show
The duo start smooth and easy while your guests find their seats and their first drink. Warm vocals over keys, acoustic guitar layered in, and the songs are well-known ones rather than deep cuts. As the night goes on the performance gets fuller and more satisfying, the way a good whisky does. They'll be set up early and dressed to the nines when your guests walk in.
On the day
They arrive with everything: good instruments, a PA sized for small and medium rooms, and their own lighting. So your venue doesn't need a rig of its own and there's no hire to arrange. A power point is the only thing they need from you.
Performance options
The performance comes in set blocks, so you can match the music to the length of your night: two or three sets of 30 minutes, or two or three sets of 45.
