Duo Alex & Miriam – The Kings of Retro Party Hits If you are looking to bring the absolute best of live retro entertainment to your event, Duo Alex & Miriam are in a class of their own. Known across venues as The Kings of Retro Party Hits, this powerhouse international duo delivers high-energy, nostalgic live performances that keep dance floors packed from the opening track to the final encore. A Lifelong Musical Partnership The story of Duo Alex & Miriam began in Rio de Janeiro in June 1995. What started as a shared passion for live music quickly grew into a lifelong creative partnership—and a marriage of over 30 years. That rare, deep-seated musical connection is immediately obvious the second they step onto a stage. Their chemistry is natural, effortless, and infectious, creating an inviting energy that connects with audiences instantly. Global Stage Experience Before relocating permanently to the UK in 2013, Alex and Miriam spent years performing across Europe, building an extensive international track record. Their career has taken them to top venues, private celebrations, weddings, luxury hotel lounges, cruise ships, dance clubs, and corporate congresses throughout Switzerland, Germany, Portugal, and France. This global background gives them a unique edge: complete multilingual versatility. Alongside timeless English party anthems, they perform fluently in French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese. Whether entertaining an intimate group or a multi-generational international crowd, they adapt their sets on the fly to fit the room perfectly. Uncompromised Musical Quality What truly sets Alex and Miriam apart is their technical authority and musicianship. Alex is a seasoned keyboardist, producer, and arranger with deep expertise in sound design and live audio routing. Every track in their repertoire—spanning the classic sounds of the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and beyond—is custom-arranged to sound rich, dynamic, and polished, avoiding the thin sound of standard backing tracks. Paired with Miriam’s powerful, emotive, and versatile lead vocals, they deliver a full, studio-quality sound in any venue. They bring top-tier, self-contained PA equipment, ensuring crystal-clear audio at the exact volume your event requires. Why Book Duo Alex & Miriam? When you hire Alex & Miriam, you are not just booking live music; you are securing reliable, high-level professionals who care about the outcome of your event as much as you do. Punctual, adaptable, and genuinely passionate about what they do, they specialise in multi-decade hits that bring back the best memories and keep people dancing all night long. Give your guests an unforgettable night with The Kings of Retro Party Hits.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients love our blend of male and female vocals, Alex's infectious stage energy on keys, and Miriam's outstanding voice. Paired with a massive 60s–90s hit repertoire and a powerful, top-tier sound, we deliver a full-band experience as a duo

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

31 years together, performing across five countries and every type of event imaginable—weddings, hotels, ferries, restaurants, street festivals, and private gatherings! That depth of experience gives us the intuition and versatility to connect with any crowd, anywhere

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Too many to count! At heart, we’re a true show band duo. Having spent 31 years absorbing the best of music history, our sound is shaped by decades of legendary artists—from Motown grooves and classic 70s rock to 80s pop anthems. We take inspiration from the greatest hitmakers of all time to keep the dance floor packed and our shows rich and diverse.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

It’s hard to pick just one! We’ve performed at massive international events, including New Year’s Eve in Geneva, the Culture Festival in Hamburg, and the world-famous Carnival in Rio de Janeiro. Whether it’s a high-profile festival or a luxury private event, we bring that same big-stage energy.

Do you have different line-up options?

As a Duo, we offer full flexibility depending on your budget! We can downsize to a Solo set for intimate spaces or lower budgets, or bring in trusted session musicians (such as percussion or extra instruments) if you have the budget for a bigger party setup.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

We're always happy to adapt to your needs so your event goes off without a hitch. If your schedule shifts as the date gets closer, just give us a heads-up!

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, we provide background music before we start and during our breaks at no extra cost. We carry a wide selection of MP3 tracks right on our sound rig to keep the vibe going seamlessly.

How much time do you need to set up?

Setup takes just 30 minutes. Our high-end gear is very efficient to assemble, so we get everything up and running smoothly without taking up your time. We can also play a playlist service right after setup to create the perfect atmosphere.

Can you roam around while you perform?

No. I'm Keyboard Player and my Wife uses a top notch microphone vintage style but anyone can feel free to come to us during the concert, also to sing

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

While our setlists are carefully built from years of experience to keep the energy high and the dance floor full, we love getting your input! You're welcome to pick your favorites from our repertoire so we can tailor the music perfectly to your vision.

Is all of the equipment (e.g. PA & lighting) included in your quote?

Full sound and lighting equipment are completely included in the quote. Our footprint is minimal for living rooms or flats, but our system is powerful enough to deliver pristine audio in outdoor and open-air venues

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Looking for a song that’s not on our list? We can quickly learn custom requests or provide live piano arrangements free of charge to make your event extra special.
