The One Thing Music Quiz® began quizzing in 2008.  Created in Perth, Western Australia by radio announcer and programmer Sheridan Crofts, it is a music quiz like no other in existence.  Original, creative, interactive and above all else fun, The One Thing Music Quiz® caters to all age groups and abilities.  It appears at various hotels weekly around Perth and is available for private and corporate bookings Australia wide.

Bookings:

No matter what the occasion or the requirement, we can provide the best-suited quiz to your group.  Quizzes are created individually for each booking based on your group’s criteria eg age spread, average age, gender spread.  The quiz is not designed for music buffs (unless requested), there are questions for all strengths and the focus is very much on fun and interaction rather than musical facts and figures.

Here are some of the types of quiz events we can provide:

• Fundraisers
• Teambuilding
• Corporate functions and development days
• Pubs and clubs
• Mine site social events
• School events (primary and secondary)
• Club wind-ups and fundraisers
• Theme nights
• Social club events

For more information, a no-obligation quote or to make a booking please get in touch using the contact menu on the left.

You can find The One Thing Music Quiz® currently at these venues every week:

Free Clues:

For every pub quiz, there is a way to retrieve 3 free answers in advance, 1 answer per round. ‘Like’ our Facebook page or follow ‘theonethingquiz’ on Twitter, then check the Facebook Wall or the Twitter tweet a couple of hours before the quiz. Sometimes the 3 answers will be there for you to write down, sometimes there’ll be a code word for you to tell the host in exchange for the answers and sometimes there’ll be a task you must perform for your host to get the answers. You just never know! But for 3 free answers, you may as well!

Our Hosts:

Sheridan Crofts

Never one for a 9 to 5 job, Sheridan has built a business on being able to sleep in, stay up late and talk endlessly about music.  Having spent much of the last 15 years in the radio industry, both announcing and programming as well as playing rather badly in bands around Perth, music has always been the inspiration.

That’s where the idea for The One Thing Music Quiz® came from.   Now she spends her days thinking up creative quiz questions, her evenings firing them off to quizzers around town in between announcing on Perth’s MIX 94.5 FM

Lukey Bolland

Lukey is a big man around Perth.  You may know him from stand-up comedy where he was a state finalist in Raw comedy 2 years in a row, from Explosive Pro-Wrestling where he has been commentator and host for the last 9 years or from his stint on the Larry Baxter breakfast show on 92.9.

But most likely though you will know him from The One Thing Music Quiz® where he spreads himself around at quizzes all over town.   Here is a photo of him with former wife Delta Goodrem (taken during some of the happier times).

Matt Hale

Matt’s bizarre background has seen him win 3 Australian radio awards for comedy on his long stint in Perth breakfast radio, travel round the world for a year in a $30 Elvis suit and saddle up as one half of local DJ/Guitar act The Takedown Brothers.

When he’s not spending time in his role as Perth’s shortest quizmaster, you can find him all over town with his real job as a stage hypnotist.  For more details go to www.matthewhale.com.au

Barry Keohane

Barry Keohane knows his music.  Well, he should, because he is Music Director for Australia’s most successful radio station (and Perth’s No.1) Mix 94.5 – and is now lending his talents to The One Thing Music Quiz as a host.

Barry has always had a passion for music, which led him into a career in radio.  He has held music programming roles all around Australia and has even provided music consultancy for countries around the world.  He loves his 80’s music and will tell you that nothing beats a good, live gig.  He also owns a variety of Billy Joel t-shirts!  He is originally from the East coast but has found a new home in Perth – he just doesn’t understand AFL.

Employment Opportunities:

The One Thing Music Quiz® is always on the lookout for prospective hosts and quiz assistants.  If you are fantastically friendly, love music and are available for casual work in the evening, get in touch using the contact menu on the left.  Hosts need to be confident with public speaking and able to use a laptop and wireless mic.

Here are the groups that have already tried The One Thing Music Quiz for their functions.

We held a corporate quiz night using “The One Thing” and it was a really successful night. The quiz was a great way for staff members to interact, work as a team and have a laugh outside of work. The organisers were efficient and friendly – I would definitely hold another “The One Thing” quiz in the future.

Thanks again for a great night. Everyone had an absolute ball, very different with the use of visual and audio aids. It was run very smoothly and a lot of our guests got involved and had many laughs.

Chelsea Randall

Just a quick note to thank you again for the great night had by all at our social club function.  The mix and varied format of the questions were excellent.  The feedback I have received has been nothing but praise on how the night was run.   Again thank you for a very entertaining night.  I wish you every success with your business, how can anyone not have fun?  I will use your company again.

I enjoyed the quiz so much I recommended it to our professional development team at work and it was well received by all.  Sheridan has mastered the art of the sexy quiz mistress with style and smarts.  Thanks Sheridan… love your work!

Thanks to The One Thing Quiz our event was a huge success.  Our guests were impressed with the quality of the presentation and everybody had a great time.

I had The One Thing Music Quiz in for a fun afternoon activity for our Year 6 boys.  They had the P.L.C. Year 6 girls visiting and the kids had a blast together!   Sheridan tailored the quiz to new music that the kids love and included dance competitions and games of Fiddy or Diddy that the kids really got a kick out of.  Even the teachers had a great afternoon!  We would definitely do this again.
