Customer questions

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

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, I'm definitely happy to chat through and make sure I find what works for your event.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.

What a great voice. Charlene was the perfect soloist for my brother's funeral. She sang with great warmth and emotion, which brought the congregation to tears. ❤ I am so pleased I booked Charlene; her performance was something really special. I look forward booking her again in the future. Great communication before the event to agree song choice too.

Charlene has added real sparkle and magic to two of our Christmas parties; from booking through to performance, Charlene is a true professional and a joy to work with. Charlene has adapted her sets to our own particular Christmas wishes but also showcased some of her own songs which are soulful and had everyone captivated. We always get 110% from Charlene and will definitely book her again!
