Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
My professionalism, and friendly approach. I have been praised for my timeless and classic vocals, and the feeling of ease and enjoyment watching my performance.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
Guildhall, Portsmouth
Mayflower Theatre, Southampton
Regent Centre, Christchurch
Fareham War Memorial outdoor event
The Actors Centre, London
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
I listened to Barbara Streisand a lot when I was growing up, so she would be the main artist.
But I studied Opera and Musical Theatre, which heavily influence my vocal style and song choices.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
I covered an original song working with Simon Weston. The song was featured across TV news and was an ongoing project to raise money for war memorials.
I also performed with David Habin and John Andrew in concert, whom are well known figures in the opera world
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure the event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes, I always provide intermediate music via my PA system free of charge.
How much time do you need to set up?
I can set up in 30 minutes and pack away in 30 minutes. These set up and pack away times are already included in the price.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Of course, we can discuss which songs from my set lists you would like played.
My pre designed set lists are specifically designed for a wonderful seamless performance. I do also have multiple set playlists depending on the performance type, so we will discuss which of these you would like.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I provide everything that is needed to perform.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
I am happy to discuss an own choice addition in advance.
