Random Sass

With extensive experience in the music industry, they’ve been described as “… excellent musicians whose brilliance bounces off one another and gives a magical performance”.
You never know what to expect next, and that’s part of what makes them a joy to watch!

SARA SHAW

She is also a singing teacher, a session musician and a website and graphic designer.

CLARE (KEYS) WHITCOMBE
Clare has an impressive history in the music scene. Originally hailing from New Zealand, she's performed in Dubai, Europe and South Korea. She’s also toured throughout Australia with theatre, rock, reggae, blues, folk, soul and jazz ensembles. Clare has composed for film and television; written, arranged and musically directed vocalists and solo artists; and appeared as a session keyboard player, vocalist and collaborator on countless albums. She also teaches music, piano and composition to students ranging from 4 years to 72 years of age.

DUO OR BIG BAND?
Random Sass often play as a duo, but they can easily expand to create a bigger sound as a trio, or with a larger backing band.

We have our own PA for one-off gigs. For festivals we require 2 x vocal microphones with stands plus a keyboard amp.

This varies from 30s to 50s jazz and blues, to RnB, soul and randomly selected contemporary songs.

We currently do not hold any insurance or permits for live performances.
