The act
Santo play neo soul and modern jazz, drawing on Nai Palm, Amy Winehouse and Al Green. It's a warm, close sound that works for a ceremony and then shifts gear for a reception without feeling like a different act turned up. They read the flow of the day and adjust as it goes. The lineup is flexible: solo, duo, trio or quartet, and they can run DJ sets for the late part of the night. Voice, guitar, keys, flute and trumpet all sit within the group's range. All they need is a power source, since they bring their own gear and lighting. Based on the Sunshine Coast.

Good to know
What to expect
Neo soul and modern jazz, played close and warm. Santo will cover the ceremony, then the reception, then the part of the night where people stop sitting down, and it never feels like a different band has been swapped in. They watch how the day is actually running and move with it, which is the bit you can't rehearse. Guests get music that sits under conversation early on and comes forward later. The group's size shifts to suit the room, so a quiet garden ceremony and a full dance floor both get the right version of the same act.
On the day
Power is the whole list. Santo turn up with their instruments, their sound gear and lighting where the setting calls for it, so you're not chasing a hire company the week before. Give them a spot with an outlet within reach and enough room for the line-up you've booked, and that's the job done. If the ceremony is somewhere the extension lead won't stretch, mention it early and they'll plan around it.
Performance options
Santo scale to the day. One performer, two, three or four, and the sound changes shape with each step up while the feel stays the same. Voice, guitar, keys, flute and trumpet all sit inside what the group can field. They also run DJ sets, which is handy for the stretch of the night when the band has finished and nobody wants the room to go quiet. Book them for the ceremony alone, for dinner, for the late hours, or for the lot. Tell them how your day is laid out and they'll tell you what fits.
