About this act
Pedal steel guitar and horn arrangements is not a combination you hear often, and it's what makes The Hokey Carmichaels stand out on both the jazz and country swing circuits in Sydney. Tenor sax, cornet and steel guitar swing through standards like Georgia On My Mind, Caravan, Sweet Georgia Brown, St. Louis Blues, Stardust and Tennessee Waltz, with a good balance of sung numbers and instrumentals. Everything is played live, with no backing tracks. As a quintet they can hold an easy background feel or push harder as the night goes on, and adding a drummer for the sextet gives you a genuinely uptempo set. They need a level performance space, power, and shelter if you're outdoors. Battery-powered sound is available where there's no mains. Insured.
