Elk

Event Entertainers presents Elk, featuring Manning and Kathleen, a Male & Female acoustic duo from Sydney.

They specialise in providing a variety of acoustic songs and styles that can fit your vibe, and do everything they can to make your day a touch more special. If you’d like some music down the aisle, to dance to, or to fill out the afternoon, they’re the perfect compliment to your wedding or special event.

Elk’s members Manning and Kathleen both grew up in the Blue Mountains, went to school together and have since moved to Sydney. When they’re not jamming at a wedding, Manning writes and performs his own music across Sydney and Kathleen works as an artist and designer.

Elk performs songs that are old and new, chill and upbeat, all chosen to match the vibe of your special day. Want some live looping? Tambourine? Harmonies? Sounds good to us! Elk are passionate about providing the perfect soundtrack for your special day. They’re all about creating beautiful moments for your special event, so you can focus on what’s important — having a blast! 

About Vocalist Guitarist, Manning.

Manning grew up in one of those families where music was always being practised, performed, or sung in excessive harmonies in the kitchen. He’s been in the Sydney music scene for 5 years, performing originals and covers. From weddings to pubs, parties to restaurants, Manning is always excited by the warming experience of playing for others. On the weekdays, he also enjoys reviewing and interviewing global and local artists for Happy Mag.

About Vocalist, Kathleen.

Kathleen has been singing since she was a pup and believes “it doesn’t seem fair that I get to do something this fun as a job”.  She’s been performing with her friends for over a decade, sings regularly at her church and spends her week working as a freelance visual artist and designer, and serving tasty food at a local restaurant.

Elk Reviews

“ELK were SO beautiful. We had Kathleen and Manning play during our reception dinner and first dance, which then flowed into an awesome outdoor dance floor set. The atmosphere they created was amazing and the guests absolutely loved it, as did we. Manning with his loop pedal and percussive guitar rhythms created an awesome energy for dancing, and we were so ecstatic to have such a buzz of energy from an acoustic set. The two brought such a perfect mix of laid back and energetic, and they went above and beyond to curate a setlist that matched our music style and included some of our favourite songs. They are just the sweetest people and did so much to make our day that much more special. A beautiful duo bringing bespoke wedding music, you can’t go wrong with these guys, would recommend to anyone!”
