Nick & Phil played at my Halloween Party and were absolutely amazing! From the first song, everyone was up dancing and carried on right through to the end! They even agreed to play an extra half an hour for us much to the delight of my friends. Will definitely look for an excuse to book them again.

Having known them for years now, The Ovation Duo have played many a time at my pub and its always packed when they play. Their song repertoire always keeps the punters happy and singing along. Both of them are great players, and singers with nice harmony blends. I will always look to book them when I can.

Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

Whilst we predominantly go out a duo (Keys/Guitar & x2 Vocals), we can always include an additional female vocalist to extend the repertoire even further, as well as an acoustic rhythm section.

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

We will always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.

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

Yes. We can also create a setlist which is more suited to your musical tastes

How much time do you need to set up?

We require roughly around 30/45 minutes to setup. We can normally have the Spotify playlist up and running very quickly to set the atmosphere.

Can you roam around while you perform?

Unfortunately not, however we will always find ways to make our performances as interactive as possible.

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

Our set list is crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have the best experience. However, we are more than happy to learn a song or two prior to your event, as well as take requests in the moment.

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

Yes. All our equipment is provided by ourselves.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in our repertoire, then there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn, we would be happy to do this for you. Please note, that this would incur an additional cost to take into account rehearsal time.
