Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
No problem. I appreciate that sometimes I have 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 you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes. No charge if you would like music played between sets. If you would like a DJ service for after the performance, then I charge an additional £100 for this.
How much time do you need to set up?
I will drive at least 1 hour before I play, but set up takes no longer than 10-15 minutes as there is minimal equipment. If you have a PA system, I may come earlier, just to ensure I know that the equipment functions properly.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
My set lists are designed after 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 we find what works for your event on a Skype call.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes! I do not have a PA system, but I have a sophisticated amplifier which is is more than suitable for guitar and vocals.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance that I may already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
