Cover cruisers
Based in Melbourne
About this act
Five pieces, four vocalists, and a saxophone that shows up more often than you'd expect. Cover Cruisers work through classic rock out of Melbourne: Eagles, Queen, The Beatles, Van Morrison, Dire Straits, Tom Petty, Creedence, The Doobie Brothers, with Dragon and Models keeping the Australian side honest. Lead guitar, keys, bass and drums fill it out. They bring their own PA, lighting and backline, so all that's needed is a sensible performance area and safe access to power. Sets can run two, three or four across the night, and the song choices shift depending on whether it's a pub, a club, a corporate function or a private party. Big sound, plenty of harmony, and a dance floor that tends to stay busy.
