Pairadeux

Above all, professionalism and great music. We pride ourselves on being easy to work with, on-time and in budget, and putting on a great performance.

Pairadeux is "more music than meets the eye".
There are cover bands, there are acoustic ensembles, there are electronica groups, and then there's Pairadeux. With their mixture of rock, pop, and folk styles, unique cover renditions, skillful improvisation, high energy and raucous wit, these two exhibit a sound and presence all their own. All music is performed LIVE with no backing tracks...just electronic percussion. (NOTE: Pairadeux is new to Gigsalad but has been performing together since 2003.)

Performing hit rock and pop songs from every era, including such artists as the Beatles, CCR, Talking Heads, the Eagles, the Police, David Gray, Patti Smith, Coldplay, Indigo Girls, Led Zeppelin, Green Day, Tom Petty, The Fray, Fleetwood Mac, Maroon 5, Sheryl Crow and many, many more.

A pair of friends sharing their love of rock & roll's rich tradition with all who hear; this is the essence of Pairadeux. Those convictions speak to people of all ages, bringing younger audiences into classic rock and older listeners into newer music.

In live performance, Pairadeux specializes in wide, dynamic sound from a minimalist operation. Miss Elizabeth's voice is compared by many to Janis Joplin and Heart's Ann Wilson (among other lady greats). Neil's acoustic guitar mastery, with its electric infusion, along with live loop sampling and multi-effects synthesizers, has become Pairadeux's legacy. Their cover-tune renditions have earned their own reputation as consistently fresh, stirring, and unique.

Pairadeux's stage display and distinctive sound has entertained thousands across the USA and around the world. With three albums, over 1000 gigs, CD and online sales, and a diverse and cross-generational audience, Neil and Miss Elizabeth have planted their flag - and the masses are rallying!

Pairadeux consists of a duo with some electronics, so we don't take up much space. We prefer to have at least a 10' x 10' area. If outside, we usually need some type of cover...we do have our own 10' x 10' popup as well as lighting if needed. We carry our own Bose P.A. system for amazing sound quality. Of course electricity at the place where we're performing is a must.. We need only a single. standard outlet 110v 15 amps grounded.
