The Mix Duo play the Sunday Live afternoon at The Waterfront in Totland Bay on 9 August. A duo covers act that ranges across pop and soul, the format works well for a mid-August Sunday when the season is still in full swing but the crowds have settled into a rhythm that is more relaxed than the peak school-holiday weeks. No booking, free entry, food served all afternoon.
The Mix Duo build a set from material that covers several decades and works for mixed ages, which is precisely what the Sunday Live audience at The Waterfront tends to require. The duo format keeps the sound clean and the performance direct, and the waterfront setting at Totland gives the afternoon a backdrop that the act does not need to compete with. The promenade faces west; by 5pm in August the light is worth staying for independently of the music.
The Waterfront, Totland Bay promenade. Music from 3pm. More music events across the island this season.
