About this Act
Brought together by a love of music and a passion for guitars and harmonies, Ben and Tim are a pair of musicians who put a unique spin on the acoustic duo. Formed over ten years ago, they play covers from the sixties to present day with an energy and passion you don't see everyday. Their dynamic performances and fun-loving delivery lend themselves to a range of functions, from weddings and parties to corporate events and pubs. They love nothing more than to perform to people and share our love for great music!
Although they are based in the Bath area, we have played gigs all over the country for private parties and corporate events. Having performed together for the past decade, we pride ourselves in tailoring each performance to the event due to their vast and ever-expanding set list.
Ben and Tim eat, drink and sleep music and they love to share our passion with everyone we meet. They have spent the past ten years honing their performances and you won't be able to escape their enthusiasm!
Biographies
Ben Whelan
Ben started to play guitar when he was 15 years old and has never looked back! Having played in a range of bands, Ben has had great experiences such as supporting Toploader at the 02 in London. His soaring vocals hit the heights of tracks such as 'Take on Me' with ease - you should hear how long he can hold a single note in 'Whole Lotta Love'!
Tim Goode
Tim is a multi-instrumentalist who mainly focuses on guitars and vocals. As the Head of Music at Bath College, he spends every day absorbed in music. Whilst performing with a range of bands, Tim has developed strong harmonies and has, over the years, managed to tame the raw rock talent which formed the basis for his singing voice.
