Additional Information

What we play. 


The typically McHanIx set list is adjusted on the fly reflecting the composition of audience - to try to make sure we hit on songs the different ages in attendance might appreciate. As an example, see the McHanIx set list below at a laid back location with a mixed age audience.  


Since we do play bars/restaurants, breweries, and festivals, we have built a repertoire covering 6 decades that allows us to vary/fit the different styles/places.  We find that venues have a distinct preference - whether upbeat, background, rock, country, certain decades, or other - sometimes depending on manager that night. You can go to your decade -

1950s 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s 2000s 2010s 2020s Holiday


Below represents most of the catalog the duo chooses from. If doing McArthur, simply adds another 100 or so songs from 50s to 90s to the mix with more of focus on Classic rock, and taking advantage of the additional instrumentation offered by 8 member band.
