About Street Party

Download Street Party Biography (Word Format)

Street Party is a retro-funk and rock cover band based in Sydney’s north. We’re focusing on danceable music that works in a pub as well as at the corporate Christmas party and wedding.

Street Party have been playing together since 99. The core of Street Party is five players, with the addition of guest players if required by the client.

Our emphasis is on soul and funk from 70’s to 00’s with additional pop and rock to create a versatile mix of your favourite music.

Current Personnel

The core line up is:

·         Tony (Disco Wilson) on lead vocals and percussion. Not only does he have a great voice, our intrepid Scottish vocalist will also entertain you with his sharp wit. More about Tony...

·         David Every on Drums and backup / Lead vocals. David has a long history in the Sydney music scene starting as a technician and now a seasoned drummer. More about David...

·         Neil Waite on bass and backup vocals. Having a long history of various bands and providing PA services via his company NSW Sound and Light, Neil brings a wealth of experience and some cool bass grooves to the sound of Street Party.. More about Neil...

·         James Murre on lead guitar. James is a virtuoso kind of player. The harder the better. James has a particular grasp of melody that adds so much authenticity to the songs. More about Jamie...

·         Rob Tessler on keyboards. Rob is at home with Rock and Funk equally, and gives Street Party the extra rhythmn punch it needs to crank out those dance numbers. More about Rob...

For clients that want a bigger band, we can add either a professional saxophone player or a full brass section, depending on requirements. We also can bring in female backup singers for the longer corporate gigs. This approach allows us to add that little extra that makes us stand out from the rest.
