Duos in Brisbane: questions

When is a duo the right choice?

For a reception or a function of average size. Two players can carry a dance floor, and they fit in a corner that a full band never could.

What does a duo charge in Brisbane?

Of the 113 Brisbane duos with a guide price, half ask between $400 and $800, and the one in the middle is $500. Your date and hours set the real figure, so ask for a quote.

Can I hear them before I book?

What if I like an act but need a different size?

Ask. Plenty of acts play in more than one size, so the duo you like may also come as a trio, or a band may send a soloist for the ceremony and the full group for the reception.
