Band Selection Help Needed!

Hi Guys,

I need some help in trying to find a suitable band,

I am organising a corporate event catering for top management from approximately 50 companies in New Zealand. Its largely an dinner function, but will have a musical interlude.

We are looking for a band which can play a good acoustics/mellow type set, do you have bands that are either up and coming or established that you recommend? - Im thinking the Goldenhorses etc?

Forums: NZ Music,

// Im thinking the Goldenhorses etc?

ahaha. corporate pop-rock personified. they'd be good.

but there's probably a few more options - where's the event taking place? Auckland?

// a few more options

breaks co-op

although they may be elsewhere

Yes the event is being held in Auckland, early November :)

well, as far as not-too-loud, semi-acoustic and 'corporate' acts go...

the aforementioned goldenhorse
bic runga might be about
stellar* might be up for a bit of a 'quiet' set.
likewise the feelers, or just james reid solo

...heading off into more 'indie' land...

punches
sjd
ryan mcphun and the ruby suns
ladi6

anyone else got any ideas?

Amber Claire, Don McGlashan?

oh yeah, Don. He'd even be able to sing songs they knew.

and Dave Dobbyn, of course...

OPen Souls.

Module + Rhian Sheehan.

Go to mp3.com.au and have a look at some Australasian Acoustic bands.
