We are "music for all occasions and all ages". Available for all kinds of shows: from cafe's to festivals to private parties. Fiorenza-Dowlin style is unique. Our cover songs are not the top 40 hits from the artists but the b-sides, etc.We have received extensive airplay on our solo CD's and now our debut duo CD in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. We continue to perform live wherever there is an electrical outlet to plug in the PA. No show too big or small for us.We also have a show exclusively for St Patrick's Day filled with Irish songs, poems, stories and jokes.We are perfect as an opening act for any kind of venue.
