Jaime and Chet

Acoustic duo Jaime and Chet’s sound can be simply summed up as “everything under the sun”. They cover every genre imaginable, and do it well.

Chet is in constant demand on the touring circuit and in the studio. The professionalism, passion and energy he brings to his music make him the first point of call for a number of top entertainers in New Zealand and on the international stage. He has shared the stage with guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, and been involved with opening for artists such as Dr John, Joe Cocker, Kenny Rogers and Cher, as well as touring with Gerry and the Pacemakers and New Zealand veterans Midge Marsden and Hammond Gamble. Besides all his work with other musicians, Chet O’Connell has released four albums of his own and works as a solo artist or with his own band.

Jaime began classical vocal training and live performance at the age of 14. He formed legendary Auckland covers act Hands Off in 1999, who nearly 20 years on are still one of Auckland’s top corporate event bands. With Hands Off, Jaime has performed extensively through New Zealand, Australia and Asia. Hands Off have been the band of choice for events including Rugby World Cup 2011, Auckland Rugby League 9s, 2018 Volvo Ocean Race, TVNZ Annual awards nights and many more.

Jamie and Chet were amazing! They had the whole wedding party up dancing the whole night and played banger after banger song. All our guests are still talking about how good the music was but also how lovely and relatable Jamie and Chet were even allowing some of the guests to be back up singers! Overall was an amazing wedding night and I would 200% recommended Jamie and Chet for your event.
