THE USUAL SUSPECTS

Genres: Pop

The Usual Suspects are a consistent line-up of Sydney's most in-demand session musicians. Each member holds either a Bachelor or Masters degree in Music Performance, and formed in 2007 to address a gap in the Sydney music scene - too many bands or 'collectives' were being thrown together for weddings and corporate events without rehearsals, with players who hadn't performed together before and with setlists resembling the worst high-school formal ever held. The Usual Suspects have also been fortunate enough to share the stage with some incredible performers, including Taylor Swift, The Hilltop Hoods, Guy Sebastian, All Our Exes Live In Texas, Peking Duk, James Morrison, Ricki-Lee Coulter, The Cat Empire and Renee Geyer. They have mastered the art of reading a crowd to engineer the right songs to keep them on their feet all night. Thus, their mantra is quite simple - to have every audience member up and dancing to a world-class performance.
