About
Lily Road is a wedding band for hire in Sydney, NSW.
Lily Road start soft and finish loud. The idea is one act that carries a whole wedding: acoustic through the ceremony, canapes and dinner, then it builds into a live band and DJ setup for the dance floor. Configurations range from solo acoustic into a DJ set, up to a trio band, or a DJ with live saxophone and a vocalist over the top. They read the crowd as they go and change songs mid set when the energy asks for it. The repertoire runs from fifties classics to current chart hits, taking in rock, pop, soul, funk, disco, R&B and country. Home bases are Sydney and Melbourne, though they travel around Australia and overseas. Audio and lighting are theirs.
Watch
The show
The shape of the night is the whole idea. It opens with acoustic music through the ceremony and dinner, then builds into a live band and DJ setup once people are ready to dance. Lily Road watch the room as they go and change what's coming next based on what they see, which is why the floor tends to stay busy rather than emptying after two songs. Classic anthems through to current hits, and vocals strong enough to carry the big ones.
On the day
Audio and lighting are entirely theirs, so there's nothing to hire and nothing to chase with your venue. That's worth knowing if you're using a space that isn't a regular function room. Just make sure there's power and enough room for the line-up you've chosen, since a ten piece needs considerably more floor than a solo acoustic set.
Performance options
Every option starts with solo acoustic and grows from there. It can move into a DJ set for the night, or into a live trio band that lifts the energy without changing the feel too sharply. Add live saxophone over the DJ for something more interactive, or a vocalist on top of that for a full night of live singing. At the top end it scales to a band of three to ten pieces. All of them cover the ceremony, canapes and dinner acoustically first, so you're booking one act rather than three.
