Laurent J

Laurent J is an indie-rock singing guitarist. He has been rocking stages, castles, tipis, hotels, barns, marquees, caves, pubs, beaches, patios, back gardens, and kitchens(!) on a frequent and regular basis. His vast experience performing means you can expect a tight performance that will get and keep the numbers on the dancefloor from the get-go. Laurent prides himself in ensuring his clients are beyond satisfied, so expect an encore or two, and expect him to go above and beyond to ensure your day is celebrated to the max! Laurent is a full-time musician, performing at events, and for studio sessions for well-known radio DJs and original artists day in day out. Laurent has studied at the prestigious British Institute of Modern Music and was awarded a full scholarship for his degree, reflecting the quality of his musicianship even from a young age. You might have seen Laurent playing at the 100 club, numerous O2s arenas, The Jazz Cafe, Scarborough Open Air Theatre, London Heaven, Manchester Gorilla, Nottingham Rock City, Crucible Theatre, and Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club. Laurent loves performing all of the classics covering multiple genres, but often clients pick their favs from the his 250 song repertoire, and they’re usually in the indie, pop, and rock pocket. Laurent can play complimentary playlist music before, in-between and after live sets if you would like. Laurent performs vocals with either an acoustic or electric guitar and can add backing tracks if required. The acoustic set works for smaller spaces, whereas the electric set is perfect for larger rooms, and those who are really wanting to maximise the impact of their event! Laurent welcomes you to tailor the setlist for your big day. For a standard 2x60 mins or 3x40mins performance you can select up to 32 songs from his repertoire, and he will endeavour to accommodate all of your requests. For short notice bookings, you are still very welcome to send over your suggestions, and as always, Laurent will do his utmost to accommodate as many requests as possible. Laurent is also very happy to learn an ‘off the menu’ song request for you, for example, a first dance or your favourite song. Laurent attends each event fully briefed and with a PA and lighting system so that he is fully self-contained, which makes booking the entertainment as simple as clicking the 'Book' button.
