Solo · Based in Sunshine Coast · Travels up to 200km
About this act
Before the solo work there was a rock 'n' roll tribute and covers band on the Sydney club circuit that toured nationally. That's the grounding. These days Michael S plays solo or as a duo around the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane, and offers three distinct flavours: a general acoustic set that runs laid back through pub classics into upbeat rock 'n' roll, a set of Aussie classics from Paul Kelly, Crowded House, Men At Work, Mental As Anything and INXS, and a fifties and sixties set built on Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Elvis, The Everly Brothers and The Beatles. He brings his own instruments and PA. All that's needed at your end is a power point, a two by two metre space, and an hour before the first song.
