OXO CUBANS - Types of shows

Dance band
"Oxo Cubans unveiled their foolproof method for getting an entire audience dancing. Called the snowball the method involves two of the five Oxos taking to the dancefloor while the remaining three start a song. When the music stops, the dancefloor duo each take a partner from the audience and continue dancing. When the music stops all four take a partner and the total becomes eight, then 16, then 32, then 64 etc. Within about three minutes, the entire room was, indeed on the dancefloor - a triumph for logic over shyness"

Festival show / Cabaret show
“They aim to lighten hearts and lift feet.” The Age
Just as happy with an audience of 50 or 50,000 , the band has opened or closed most of the major arts and street festivals in south - east Australia. The Oxo’s have merged their own style, acousti-funk, with comedy/cabaret, so put them in one spot and they’ll be jumping up and down in formation, plying peals of laughter from piles of people. Tuba, trombone, saxophones, drums, congas and a whole world of percussion. Singing, whistling, dancing,rapping and fooling around. Thirty three kilos of brass, five voices and seventy seven percussion instruments. All the brass have microphone bugs and P.A. requirements are available.
