Covers Bands for Dance function in Queenstown, Dunedin Invercargill and Lower South Island
A list of Queenstown and Dunedin covers dance bands
Covers bands perform copies of original rock pop classic hit parade songs for dances.
A covers band tries to recreate as far as is possible the feel and main elements of the original performer's rendition. Sometimes covers bands use totally live instrumentation. In other cases, particularly smaller covers bands, the sound of the full band is recreated by using midi files or sequenecd backing tracks to replace missing live instruments. In some instances there is no live instrumentation at all, just singers using backing tracks. PME have vetted each act we offer to ensure that there is a high quality standard.
A covers band is ideal dance entertainment for a corporate dance event, prestige ball, wedding reception dance and private party dance
- everyone will recognise the tunes!
