Leicestershire based Acoustic Avenue are a rarity on the live music scene - they are an all female acoustic duo Ruthie and Tara have a wealth of performing experience having previously worked on numerous worldwide contracts for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, P & O, Ocean Village, Bourne Leisure and many more.
In November 2014 they decided to combine their talents to form a contemporary music duo for weddings and corporate events. As Acoustic Avenue, they perform a wide range of popular cover songs in their own individual, stripped-back style.
They are becoming well known for their ‘mash-ups’ where they combine two popular songs to form something unique - Ruthie has even been known to break out her rapping skills!
Using close vocal harmonies against a backdrop of acoustic guitar, they create a sound that is unmistakably ‘Acoustic Avenue’. They can make you laugh (their jokes are occasionally funny) and cry (Adele songs usually work!). Acoustic Avenue can deliver anything from a heartfelt wedding ballad to a crowd pleasing rock anthem. They love to engage and involve the audience and can really get the party started.
The most important thing is that everybody has the BEST time - whether it’s a wedding, party or corporate event.
