Double Talk – The duo that gets the party started!
We’ll craft the perfect soundtrack for your entire day — from live music as you walk down the aisle, to relaxed acoustic sets during pre-dinner drinks, ambient tunes over dinner, and a high-energy set to everyone on the dancefloor.
Make your next function one to remember. Whether you’re looking for laid-back background tunes or a full dance floor experience, we bring the professional sound and party atmosphere that lifts the whole event.
Ready to light up the night? Our setlist is stacked with high-energy anthems and crowd-pumping favourites — the kind of tracks that fill the dance floor and leave everyone talking long after the last note.

Don’t just take our word for it — hear it from the dance floor.

We chose Double Talk as our wedding band after an unforgettable New Year’s Eve dancing to them in Twizel—and we’re so glad we did!
Sheryl and Al were incredible to work with: friendly, professional, and totally in tune with the energy of the room. The dance floor was full all night, and when the crowd chanted ‘one more song!’, they delivered with an encore that kept the celebration alive.
They even went out of their way to learn a special song just for our first dance, which made the moment truly personal and unforgettable.
You guys were the absolute BEST! Everyone has told us you made the party!

Double Talk was absolutely incredible at our end-of-year prize giving! Their talent, and energy
brought the perfect atmosphere and had everyone engaged from start to finish. So many guests
commented on how amazing the music was — we couldn't have asked for better entertainment!

Al and Sheryl Bradley (Double Talk) are amazing entertainers that always get the party started. We at the Top Hut in Twizel have been lucky enough to have them play for us for many years and they still remain an absolute crowd favourite. The song list is always up to date and delivery on point. We will continue to book these two as long as they still want to play.
