Tech Spec

Although some of our videos use electronic instruments, our live act is completely acoustic, just two vocals and an acoustic guitar – and so unless we have agreed beforehand that we are bringing our wonderful cellist with us, our tech spec is very simple!

It is as follows:

2 x vocal mics

2 x vocal mic stands (at least one boom, preferably both) 

1 x DI or similar for acoustic guitar with standard jack line out

2 monitors with a mix of guitar and both vocals in both – we can also share 1 monitor if need be. 

We tend to stand downstage centre with Rosie (guitar) stage right and Rachel (no guitar) stage left.

Please note: our performance involves a banner and some small props, all of which come on stage with us and leave with us at the end of the show.

Wot no PA? We can also play completely unplugged if your performance space is small and intimate enough.

Please get in touch via fossilheads (at) gmail.com with any technical enquiries.
