DESCRIPTION
LIVEWIRE is a 4-piece band who pride themselves in their versatility, bringing a range skills and instruments into the mix to create a wide variety of musical styles. Between the band members, they play 7 instruments. This is the key to their ability to faithfully reproduce the feel and the groove of well known songs, while still adding a touch of their own unique flavour.
From screaming guitar solos, through tight vocal harmonies to groovy keyboards, the band's sets are designed to keep the audience on its feet. But they also slow down to match the mood, with the acoustic guitar keeping it mellow, especially early on in the night before the dancing mood has taken over!
Having 2 main vocalists also keep the variety coming. Between them, Frits and Colin will tackle just about anything. So if there's a particular song you would like (eg as the first song at your wedding), we can usually oblige (with a bit of notice!).
