About
Sam Bannink is a musical soloist for hire in Sunshine Coast, QLD.
Sam Bannink works Monday to Sunday, so availability is rarely the problem. Five years of weddings behind him, and just as comfortable in a pub, a club, a cafe or someone's backyard. He reads the room and moves the energy up or down accordingly. The song list is wide: Cold Chisel, Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham for the Australian crowd, then Queen, U2, Bob Marley, John Mayer, Amy Winehouse, Coldplay and The Beatles, with Zac Brown Band and Keith Urban if the night leans country. He loops and layers parts, and can bring lighting and a DJ set as well. Give him three metres square, power, and something over his head if the weather turns.
Watch
The show
Sam plays with the energy the room needs, which might mean quiet and unobtrusive or might mean loud enough to get people up. He's spent years across pubs, clubs, cafes, restaurants and private gigs, and each of those wants something different from a solo musician. He'll loop and layer parts so one player sounds like more than one. Lighting and a DJ set can come along too.
On the day
Three metres by three of space, a power point, and something overhead if the weather might turn.
Performance options
Wedding bookings are built around how long you need him. Three hours covers a ceremony and drinks, five hours takes you through into the reception, and seven or more will see out a full day and night. Pubs, clubs and private parties get quoted on their own terms rather than off the wedding list, so tell him what the event is when you enquire.
