About

Hey! I'm the drummer and backing singer in The Times. I grew up on Phillip Island which gave me a love for the ocean - surfing and kite surfing is how I keep myself fit and happy. My favourite place to be is on stage with the audience gripped and the atmosphere electric. I chase this feeling every time I perform - I love it! I also love my friends and having a laugh with new friends. Catch you soon I hope!

FAQ

We usually play 3 sets, each lasting 45-50 minutes. These can easily be combined or split up to suit your schedule.

Often at a wedding we will play a laidback set in the background when the guests first arrive at your reception, then two sets of dancing music after dinner. This is entirely up to you. Once we are set up we are infinitely flexible and can jump on or off whenever needed. We are also more than happy to adjust things on the fly if things aren't running to schedule.

Yes. Outside of performing in The Times Dave works as a DJ. Providing great interlude music between our sets and to close out the night is included in our price. If you would like to step it up a level we can upgrade to include DJ-ing at a much more affordable rate than booking a separate DJ.

These guys were absolutely legendary for our wedding at The Shearing Shed. We had their Wedding Package 4, which included music over the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. The music they provided was spectacular and they kept the vibes going all night. We also had them MC for us and the energy they gave was exactly what we wanted. Definitely worth the money spent!!

6 Stars! They were outstanding. Very easy to deal with! Just amazing! We had a ball and didn't stop dancing. They played everything we wanted. They did an extra set for us as well as everyone was really loving it. Worth every penny.

We often facilitate dance-offs or other dance floor shenanigans. It's always spontaneous, never forced or awkward. If the guests leave after having a good boogie they feel elated! Word up your band and see what they can do.
