Sydney's renowned Sneaky Sound System is sailing south to play at Melbourne's premier club night - onelove at The Prince - on Saturday 15th May.

Since arriving on the scene around three years ago, the Sneaky Sound System has given the local music and party scene a much needed slap in the chops. Four party-loving boys renowned for their deep and funky hip-shaking party grooves, fancy white suits and top-shelf live show, the group combines the talents of producer Black Angus, DJ Hesse, MC Double D and saxophonist Tricky Nick.

Sneaky Sound System was formed at the aptly named Sneaky Sundays night in Sydney where the seven-hour session kicked off with 80's boogie, deep disco and soul, went through to funk and jazzy breaks, and then onto good time house music that was deep, funky and absolutely rocking. Appearing were crazy dancers, live musicians, the occasional guest and the cheeky commentary of MC Double D.

Since then, Sneaky Sound System has gone on to release their debut double mixed CD, 'Other People's Music', through Sony to rave reviews and last year played to sell out crowds at The End and 333 in London and Kinzo in Berlin. They've also appeared alongside acts like Masters at Work, Jazzanova, Louie Austen, The Cuban Bros and Norman Jay.

Sneaky Sound System have presented their own events too like the now legendary New Year Day parties at the Bondi Icebergs, the groundbreaking Join In nights at the Basement, and their phenomenally successful Sunday night at The Bourbon which pulls 1000 people every single week.

Behind the scenes, the Sneaky Sound System have been buried in the studio putting together their debut album tilted 'This is Show Business'. They've pulled themselves out of the studio though to hit the onelove stage at the early time of 11pm on Saturday 15th May. They'll be accompanied by onelove resident DJ's Grant Smillie and Kaz James, along with special guest Andy Van, with tickets available on the door for the regular admission of just $15.
