About The Verweys

The Verweys provide live music for weddings, corporate functions and private celebrations, and the Hunter Valley is the focus of their wedding work, with their own photos showing receptions in winery barrel rooms. They also travel to the Mid North Coast. The act can be booked as an acoustic duo, which suits ceremonies and canapés, or as a four-piece band for the reception and dance floor, and the music is shaped around the style of the event and the crowd you are expecting. Their song list follows the stages of a wedding day. The acoustic and canapé sets lean on relaxed, easy-listening songs from artists such as Jack Johnson, Ed Sheeran and Vance Joy. Dinner moves to warm, soulful tracks from Stevie Wonder, Fleetwood Mac and Bill Withers, and the dance-floor sets bring out singalongs such as Mr Brightside, Valerie and Dancing Queen. The published list is only a sample, and each booking is built around the couple's own taste in music. To keep the party going after the band's last set, The Verweys offer a DJ extension that runs through the band's full sound and lighting setup, so the energy doesn't drop between live and recorded music. The DJ set uses playlists tailored to the age range of the crowd, mixing noughties throwbacks, singalong classics and current hits, with guest requests optional.
