About this act
Coat of Arms is a musical trio from Melbourne, Victoria.
This Melbourne trio takes Australia's coat of arms and turns it into three costumed characters: an emu, a kangaroo, and a shield played as a drum. The repertoire runs from bush classics through to more recent Australian songs, played rather than mimed. The shield itself detaches from its performer, letting guests hold it for photos, which turns a costume piece into something interactive rather than just a visual. A big, broad take on a national symbol rather than a small novelty act.
