The Cross-Eyed Dogs

Five players and a set that swings between pop rock and soul blues: that's The Cross-Eyed Dogs, a covers band from Brookvale on Sydney's northern beaches. The songs mix classic hits with newer favourites, the sort of list that pulls people off their chairs and keeps them up once they're there. Expect a lively show with a full, punchy sound behind the vocals. So think of them for the second half of the night, when dinner's done and your guests are ready to move. A five-piece this size wants a proper dance floor to aim at, and a party that plans to spend most of the evening on its feet.
