Acoustic Royale is a singer for hire in Perth, WA.
Christian Parkinson has spent more than 15 years fronting bands and playing acoustic solo sets across WA and the east coast, at festivals, bars, weddings and corporate functions. Acoustic Royale is his outlet for that songbook, running as a soloist or a duo, and along the way he's shared stages with members of some of Australia's biggest rock acts, Diesel, The Angels, The Screaming Jets and Rose Tattoo among them. But he knows when to hold back. One corporate client praised the duo for keeping the volume moderate through the first half of the night and lifting it later, which is exactly the judgement you want at a function.

Christian and Owen, performing as Cranky Duo, went down really well with our people and were perfectly suited to our semi-formal corporate function. They kept their music to a moderate level for the first half, increasing it a little for the last half to accommodate the dancers. Their variety of music was suitable to the varied age-groups amongst our guests. They were friendly, personable guys and easy to deal with, very accommodating. I have had all positive feedback from our employees and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. Thank you for your assistance once again; you have been a great help to us on many occasions and always provide reliable and professional service to Simcoa. I will be back in touch in 2019 to source a performer for our next Christmas function.
