Style of Music
The X & Y are an electro-pop, groovecore funtime duo from the South West of England. Using keyboard, guitar, live percussion, synth, samplers, vocoder, groovebox and loopers, Alex Bayross (Alex & the Altar) and Carey Andrews (Lord Irving) combine male and female vocals to fulfill the axes of music: rhythm and melody - The X & the Y!
Carey brings her training in classical singing and piano to inform the rich tapestry of harmony and melody while Alex uses The Altar to produce energetic tracks live on the spot.
Packed with nostalgia tunes, dance music, singalongs, requests, originals, obscure meme music, soundtracks and theme tunes, it can get a bit weird in the right room. Classic 70s, cheesy 80s, bangin 90s, naughty 00s right up to current hits, dancing is compulsory and a good time MUST be had by all.

Do you have any other price packages that are cheaper?
We are able to offer much smaller packages (eg ceremony, wedding breakfast/cocktail hour) just ping us a message and let us know what you're after and we can give you some more info!

Absolutely! We have our own full 2000watt PA and all sound equipment, as well as roaming mics (for speeches) and a smaller busking amp for more intimate settings.
Do you provide any lighting?
We have our own personal lighting as well as a full lighting matrix, should you wish to have a proper disco!
Will you learn requests?
We will learn a request for the first dance included in the price of booking, however any extra requests you might have after this will incur a charge.
