The Passengers

Take an acoustic trip through your favourite songs. Driving rhythms propel you past the crossroads of classic tunes and onto the motorway of modern masterpieces.


Video

We use a variety of acoustic instruments such as acoustic bass, acoustic guitar,harmonica, drums and percussion. Our target audience is fun-loving people who enjoy a high quality of entertainment.
The repertoire includes hits from the genres of classic and modern pop, rock, funk, reggae and Irish, and the songs have been chosen to appeal to people of all ages.
We are able to play quietly in small rooms or cafes, or we can amplify our acoustic sound for clubs, bars and larger venues.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. The Passengers played at my wedding in Gisborne and were fantastic! They played a nice unplugged set at the ceremony venue to entertain guests and provide the isle song, which was absolutely amazing! They then setup at the reception venue and played whilst guest enjoyed nibbles and then played the main set after dinner. They had the dance floor packed all night with a broad range of great tunes. These guys are pro's, they are very friendly to deal with and were a big part of making our wedding day so special. DONT HESITATE BOOK THEM NOW!
