We hired Annelise to perform at an exclusive Valentines dinner at our private country club. Annelise was a pleasure to work with, very professional and prompt to respond to communication. Her choice of songs were perfect for the event and her warm personality shone through her performance! Everyone enjoyed the evening, and I would certainly recommend Annelise for any social event

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I will always do my best to be flexible if the timings need to change, so please just let me know at your earliest convenience.

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

Yes certainly, no problem at all. I can play music through my PA system in my breaks or before my sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

I need 15 minutes to set up my PA system. I will always set up at a time that is convenient to you as the client.

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

Yes I am very happy to share my repertoire to clients in advance of the events, so that they can choose any songs they particularly like. I feel this is an important part of my performance. I have also been requested to sing ‘first dance’ songs at weddings and I am happy to accommodate this with prior notice.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes I bring all my equipment, but I can also plug into a PA system already at a venue by connecting my iPad and I am more than happy to do this also.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes I am happy to learn up to three songs - that are not in my repertoire if they fit into the set and I have prior notice. I am also happy to sing one song for a wedding ‘first dance’ provided I can find the necessary backing track.
