A real night, no polish
No studio tricks. This is what a room sounds like when I am in it.
What I do
Three ways this goes
For venues
Pubs & bars
Loud, acoustic, real. Three or four hours that keep the room in the room and the bar busy.

For events
Weddings & parties
Ceremony to last song. Weddings, corporate nights, birthdays, engagements, backyard parties.

For listeners
My own songs
Sweet name. Dark little songs. Big pub voice. Start with The Job of Life.

Who you are actually booking
I'm Marco
I play as Sally's Candy Shop — solo, or as a duo when the room wants more. I live on the Brisbane Bayside and I play across Brisbane and down to the Gold Coast.
I bring my own PA and lights, I turn up early, and I read the room rather than playing at it. If the crowd wants singalongs they get singalongs. If it is a dinner, I keep it under the conversation.

The Job of Life
My own song, out now. A song about the work of being alive when nobody tells you whether you are doing it right.
