About
Bobby Holmes (Australian Idol 2023 Finalist) is a singer for hire in Gold Coast, QLD.
Top 24 on Australian Idol 2023, Bobby Holmes now plays Gold Coast events and clubs as a solo acoustic act, and can run party DJ sets when the night calls for it. He got his start performing in Tokyo, sings with the Hitmen band and the Angus and Bobby duo, and has a single of his own out, Surfing the Swell. The repertoire spans the decades, from The Beatles, The Monkees and The Police through Cold Chisel to Bruno Mars and Ed Sheeran. And he can hold it quiet and laid-back or flip the room into dance floor mode. A single power point covers the setup, with sets running up to four hours.

The show
Songs people already know, spanning decades rather than sitting in one era. Bobby Holmes can keep it quiet and laid-back for a dinner crowd, or turn the same repertoire into dance floor mode when the night wants it. He reads which one you need and can switch partway through if the room changes on him. That flexibility is really the point of booking a solo act who also runs DJ sets.
Performance options
Sets can stretch up to four hours, so one booking will cover most of an evening. How the night gets split into sets and breaks is worth working out with him, and where the event is held factors in too. Send through your timings in the enquiry and he'll tell you what works.
