About / Biography

Hello! We're Mia and Dan, a couple making music in the South of England as a duo and with our awesome band. Since meeting on a gig we have been lucky enough to visit over 40 countries and play hundreds of gigs together, and we love being a part of special events!

Our sound features male and female vocals, guitar, and ukulele, perfect for wedding ceremonies, drink receptions, dinner music, garden parties, engagements... and with our 4 piece band and DJ service we can take it through to the last dance (check out The True Colours Band profile).

We have worked as gigging musicians and artists for many years, and have built up a huge repertoire of songs. From Elvis to Ed Sheeran and Ella Fitzgerald to Taylor Swift, whether we're creating an ambient version of a classic rock track, harmonising over a feel-good Motown song, reworking a guilty pop pleasure... we love it all. Our aim is to create the perfect atmosphere with our music, and love arranging a song for a special moment. Love songs for ceremonies, jazzy tunes for drinks receptions or getting upbeat and folky for festival vibe gig.

We've worked on events for some amazing brands like Veuve Cliquot, Pizza Express, and Malmaison hotels, featured live on the prime time Andrew Peach Show on ‘BBC Radio Berkshire’, played residencies on luxury cruise ships in the Caribbean, USA, South America and Asia as well as a few festivals. Our acoustic versions can now be found on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon and more.

Thanks for checking us out, please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions on any aspect of what we do. Our repertoire is always growing, if there's something not on our list just ask! If you are looking for a duo and band combo, you'll find more info on our full band sets at The True Colours Band.
