Andrea has a warm, lyrical voice and sings with great musicality. She demonstrates technical clarity and never loses the emotional sense of what she is singing. I look forward to her next performance!

How lovely to hear Andrea Maxson singing at St. Augustine's at the start of the Christmas Tree Festival. A particular favourite for me was her delightful rendition of The Little Road to Bethlehem, which rose gently to fill the church as it reached its climax. I look forward to future performances.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, I can provide iPod music in between sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

I don't need much time at all to set up - just a quick sound check before guests arrive.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

My repertoire list is crafted from countless performances and learning what works best with my voice, so that your guests really enjoy my performance. I'm definitely happy to work with you to make sure you make the perfect choice.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely!

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't on my repertoire list there may still be a chance that I will know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you. There may be a small charge (£30) if a special arrangement is required.

I have performed in many different types of venue, including churches at home and abroad, hotels, concert halls as well as more intimate venues such as restaurants, bars and even family homes!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

I performed at St. George's inside Windsor Castle and the Royal Standard told us that the Queen was in residence. It was an amazing feeling to know that she has her own special pew just a short distance from where I was singing.
