Since graduating from university in 2005 Rise Acoustic Duo earn a living performing as a quality live music act for birthday parties , weddings, and also corporate events such as Christmas and Summer Parties. Never failing to impress, Rise Acoustic Duo have proved themselves to be a high quality, London based live acoustic duo. In essence Rise Acoustic Duo consist of a Pianist (Richard Coulson) and a guitar player/vocals (Dave O'Callaghan) However their sound includes mandolin parts, harmonica, and backing vocals. Rise achieve a rich, full sound unrivalled by most small bands. London is where the live duo are based and where they perform the majority of their gigs; but the affordable acoustic duo will travel anywhere to play. Having established the duo whilst studying at university, Dave and Rich managed to fund their way through their university life by playing live in local pubs and clubs in London and the surrounding area. ‘Rise Acoustic Duo’ gained more and more experience and improved their repertoire so much so that by the time they graduated university in 2005 they went professional. They secured different residencies in Carnaby Street, Soho and South Kensington, and began spreading farther than just London and the South East playing all over the UK and as far away as Switzerland. As well as these residencies ‘Rise’ performed in many other bars and also performed at many private parties and corporate events. Having established many contacts whilst performing at the 'Blue Balls Festival 2004' in Switzerland (as Hanger Lane), the London based duo now perform three to four times per year in Switzerland at separate corporate parties, private parties and club gigs. Rise are friendly, professional and can provide extensive references from many happy bookers! |
