Good times, high fives and a lot of laughs. This is how Andy & Simon came to pick up guitars and start making music.
These guys grew up together and learnt to make music their own, jamming in the garage and annoying the neighbours with covers of all their favourite songs till the wee hours of the morning. The song choices these guys pick shows the diversity and length of time they have spent together over the years making music.These guys play all the classic/standard songs heard all over town, but can make an over-played song their own. Maybe a jazz version of something by The Doors, an acoustic version of a Guns N’ Roses classic, or maybe even a swing version of something by Noiseworks.
There is so many great songs out there to be heard, and you just never know what song is coming next when your with Counterpart.

Andy and Simon were professionals and put on a great show for our engagement party. They were very friendly and we organised with them our song requests from their extensive setlist prior which they incorporated for the night. They had everyone up dancing and all the guests commented on how much they enjoyed the entertainment and at how well they performed.
