Flo & JoanAward-winning Musical Comedy Duo Rosie and Nicola Dempsey

Since forming their musical comedy duo in North America, sisters Nicola and Rosie Dempsey have become one of the most distinctive acts on the British circuit. They first achieved massive digital success when their satirical summary of the year 2016 reached over 40 million views online, and they later gained national recognition through a popular series of television advertisements for Nationwide Building Society. Drawing their stage names from their grandmother and her sister, the pair combine piano, percussion and recorders to deliver intricate, deadpan songs that explore topics ranging from modern dating to alliteration and observational politics. The duo has expanded their creative reach with frequent television appearances on flagship programmes such as Live at the Apollo and the release of their Amazon Prime Video comedy special, Alive on Stage. Their work is highly decorated, having secured the Best Musical Act at the Leicester Comedy Festival and the Chortle Award for Best Music and Variety Act. Recently, they have showcased their versatility by composing and performing in the 2024 stage production, One Man Musical. Audiences book this talented pair for their flawless delivery and sharp lyrical wit, making them a premier choice for events seeking high-energy entertainment that balances musical skill with contemporary British humour. On stage, Flo & Joan is best known for talks on Comedy, Music and Performance. Audiences leave with a clear, practical view of the subject rather than a generic overview — every keynote is shaped around the brief and the room. Their work resonates with leaders across Comedy and Entertainment, where the themes translate directly into team decisions, customer experience and growth strategy. Flo & Joan is regularly booked for Performers and Entertainer and After Dinner Speaker, adapting tone, length and format to suit the event — from a 20-minute opener to a full conference keynote with Q&A.
