About
Dana Roskvist is a singer for hire in Noosa Heads, QLD.
Crowded House, Radiohead, Pearl Jam, The Cure, Flame Trees. That's the shape of a Dana Roskvist set: guitar and voice, nothing between the song and the room. Most of the repertoire sits in the 70s and 90s, with Under The Milky Way and Where Is My Mind turning up alongside Beatles and Bowie. Years of band work behind it, including tours through Australia and the States, and these days the focus is the solo acoustic show. Turns up with the lot too, speakers, desk and mic, so a small venue only needs to supply power and enough light to read by. Good fit for a bar, a backyard or anywhere a full band would be too much.

The show
Guitar, voice and a set built around the 70s and 90s. Crowded House, Radiohead, Pearl Jam, The Cure. Songs like Under The Milky Way and Where Is My Mind turn up next to Beatles and Bowie, so a room hears things it knows without hearing the same twenty songs every other solo act plays. Dana comes with the full kit for a small gig, speakers, desk and microphone, so nothing needs hiring in. It sits well in a bar or a backyard, anywhere a full band would be too much noise for the space.
Performance options
Two shapes to pick from. The shorter booking is a pair of hour-long sets, give or take, which suits a dinner service or an afternoon that doesn't need to run late. The longer one adds a third hour-long set for a full evening. Both come with the gear, so there's no difference at your end other than how long the music lasts. If your event is a long drive from Noosa Heads, mention it in your enquiry and the travel gets worked out for that particular job rather than assumed.
