Double or Nothing are a snappy duo of talented songwriters with a charming acoustic arrangement of double bass, guitar, and vocals, who endeavour to set the perfect tone at your event.
The desire to suit your needs culminates in a varied set list featuring favourites by Bob Dylan, Beyoncé, Guns N Roses, Florence and the Machine, and Radiohead to name a few. There's a great mix, from modern pop to classics, funk to folk, country to rock, and swing to indie, making sure everyone will find something they enjoy out of this stripped-back performance.
The pair also write, arrange, and play their own songs, allowing an original selection of music to give your occasion an even more intimate feel. Perfect for easy-listening ambience, the romantic backdrop to your ceremony, or a lively evening dance, Double or Nothing's repertoire will suit a whole variety of celebrations.
Double or Nothing have played together for years and have travelled across the UK at a variety of events. With experience in classical music, theatre and pop, they are also vocal and instrumental coaches, being awarded an Excellence Award and achieving diplomas from the London College of Music. They have supported X Factor's Olly Murs, Diana Vickers, and Amelia Lily, and Tommy Reilly of "Gimme a Call" fame. The pair have also played with the inspiring Gabrieli Consort at the 2011 BBC Proms, in addition to supporting numerous artists on recent tours.
Double or Nothing will learn your first dance or a special request as part of their performance to start your night off on a high, and will play acoustically or amplified if necessary (they'll bring their own PA and lighting to boot). Their standard set list includes 2x45 minute performances, and the pair will provide playlist music between sets to maintain the atmosphere.
An acoustic duo based in London, Double or Nothing are happy to travel anywhere to perform at your wedding, party or corporate event.

Yes, happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.
I have to say The Newcastle Arena on 4th February 2024 - because I took the opportunity, on stage in front of thousands of people, to propose! (And she said yes).
We don't share a single artist as the greatest influence, favourite artist, or the creator of the greatest song of all time - our broad repertoire includes artists ranging from Queen and Meat Loaf to contemporary icons like Lewis Capaldi and Ed Sheeran. This reflects a blend of inspiration across genres such as pop, rock, swing, and acoustic music. Freddie Mercury is probably up there as a favourite entertainer.
Tom has worked with celebrity talent like Olly Murs, Cat Stevens, Robson Green (of Robson and Jerome) and Labi Siffre and has experience performing classics from every era or genre, from Pop and Rock to Opera and Musical Theatre. His bass player has played in Musical Theatre orchestras across the globe - most notably, he is the "Go-To" bass player for The Lion King! Tom holds a Grade 8 in singing and a Performance Diploma at Distinction level from the London College of Music. In 2013, he received an Excellence Award from the college and has since expanded his repertoire, performing in diverse styles from opera to pop and rock. He also holds a degree from Goldsmiths and an MA in Creative Producing from Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. His versatility and professionalism have made him a sought-after performer for weddings, functions, and public events.
We love playing at all sorts of events but weddings are our favourite! The guests are always happy and it’s easy to get them dancing.
Bringing you chart classics done in a stylish live-lounge way, this exciting acoustic duo deliver a Folk-Pop feel that will get you moving and grooving. Ideal for drinks receptions, dinner entertainment, garden parties or as your main evening's entertainment. Experts at tailoring their feel-good acoustic sets to suit any atmosphere you want to achieve.
"Phenomenal... Natural synergy... Vast repertoire... Delightful experience..."

Load-in/Setup Time: 1 hour before performance
Load-out/Pack Down Time: 40 mins
Performance times are usually 2 x 45 minutes
Extra charges may apply when time of return is midnight to 2am.
We’re happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.
We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this to 5 songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them. We're both very experienced so will likely pick songs which your guests will truly enjoy vibing to.
Check the testimonials! Previous customers would describe us as a high energy duo that loves to get the audience on their feet dancing and performs well-known chart classics in a way that breathes new life and originality into each of them.
