Dilly Music

The act

Two acoustic players based up in the Gold Coast Hinterland, out most weekends across restaurants and taverns in Queensland and northern New South Wales. The set mixes modern songs with classics and puts a slight twist on both: A Team, Dreams, Fast Car, Big Jet Plane, Brown Eyed Girl, Can't Help Falling In Love. They can play up to six hours, working in 45 minute sets with a short break between each. Dress is matched to the event. For weddings they'll cover the ceremony, with entrance, signing and farewell songs nominated by you, and carry on through canapes. They arrive 40 to 60 minutes early to set up and soundcheck.

Good to know

What to expect

Warm, easy to be around, and happy playing to any age group. The duo can run up to six hours, structured as 45 minutes on and a 15 minute break, repeating through the booking. Their clothes get matched to the event, so a beach ceremony and a corporate dinner don't get the same outfit. It's a straightforward act done well, which is more than half the battle at a function.

On the day

They'll be there 40 to 60 minutes before the start, which is enough to get everything up and run a sound check before guests notice. If your run sheet needs them earlier or later than that, say so and they'll work to it.

Set List

Two guitars and voices, with modern songs and older ones sitting side by side. A Team and Perfect by Ed Sheeran, A Thousand Years by Christina Perri, Dreams and Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, Fast Car by Tracy Chapman, Big Jet Plane by Angus and Julia Stone, Can't Help Falling in Love by Elvis Presley, Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen, Free Fallin' by Tom Petty, Isn't She Lovely by Stevie Wonder, Lean on Me by Bill Withers and Riptide by Vance Joy. Newer material too, with IDGAF by Dua Lipa, Happy by Pharrell Williams and Pumped Up Kicks by Foster the People. The Australian side runs to Better Be Home Soon by Crowded House, Horses by Daryl Braithwaite, Opportunity by Pete Murray and Scar by Missy Higgins.

Performance options

For weddings there are three shapes to choose from. The shortest covers the hour around the ceremony, with live music as guests arrive and wait, and your nominated songs for the entrance, the signing and the walk back out. The middle option adds the canape hour on the end of that. The full one runs about six hours across ceremony and reception, with 45 minute sets spaced around speeches and formalities, background playlists between them, one song learned specially for your first dance or farewell, and one to two hours of DJ music with lighting to finish the night. A professional PA comes with all three, and they can play indoors or out wherever there's power.
