About MyOfficeToday

An upbeat acoustic duo playing a mix of pop and funk tunes, Guaranteed your audience will be entertained by the song selection and mash-ups!
Acoustic duo
Bristol
Public liability insurance of £5 million

The duo formed in 2022 after Alessandra (vocals) joined Fil (guitar) on stage as a surprise guest for his band. The chemistry was instantaneous and soon afterwards they decided to set up an acoustic duo with the aim of focussing on upbeat pop/funk songs and unexpected mash-ups, as well as some classic ballads. The communal intent is to deliver a show with a fresh and bubbly selection of songs, avoiding the banality. They started gigging in the South West of England at the end of 2022 although both members have previous experience with function bands in the area. They combine irresistible groovy guitar parts with incredible vocal harmonies that are sure to wow an audience. The key strength as a duo is their chemistry. The passion for music comes alive during their gigs and crowds can't help it but join in with the singing! This is also reflected in the song choices, which stand out for their originality. MyOfficeToday like to take the audience by surprise with creative mash-ups as well as original renditions of some classic tunes. Alessandra’s familiarity with music started at an early age, since her father was singing in a local band in Florence (Italy). She started listening to ACDC, Queen, Eric Clapton, Rolling Stones, Elton John, Pink Floyd and several other Italian artists from age 6, and really enjoyed going to her father’s gigs. Later on, she started to study singing and vocal techniques. The most important step was becoming lead singer in the funky-dance and acid jazz cover band Sofia Hammond Quartet, now SOFIA (2012 - 2020), gigging at numerous venues (pubs, clubs, street events, weddings) all over Tuscany. Another important milestone has been singing in the acoustic duo ‘The Robinooda’s' (2014 - 2018), gigging in Tuscany and Liguria (Italy). She also joined a musical chorus company in Florence, having the chance to perform an entire show dancing and singing tunes taken from different famous music productions (Broadway and Disney). Fil also started his musical career at an early age in the north of Italy (Bergamo). His first experiences as a guitar player with local bands were fundamental in forging his musicianship and contributed to building his confidence to play on a stage. His musical breakthrough happened in the early noughties when his band (Shyva) won a local TV talent show which gave the band visibility and a lot of bookings. Not long after that he relocated to the UK where he has continued his activity as a guitar player over the years in cover bands in the South of the UK (The Giant Leaps, The 7-8-9s) and as a session musician for other bands (Moon Rivers, The Opportunity, The Funkdamentals).
