Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
If you are wanting to change the timings after booking me, just let me know and I will try my best to be flexible. I am open minded when it comes to schedule changes but I would like at least a few days or weeks notice.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
I can create a Spotify playlist on my Iphone, plug it into the venues mixer, (if the engineer has the right cable) featuring songs of anybody's choosing to have playing between and or before my sets for free.
How much time do you need to set up?
Being a solo artist, I am flexible to set my equipment up either just before my sets (roughly 15 minutes) or any time the venue requires me to have my gear set up. I do have my amp, guitars, stands and pedals but I am very used to setting these up.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Yes, I am very open to doing songs that will please the crowd and venue the most as that is what I aim to do. If there are songs on my set list that you would like me to play more than others, please let me know and we will come to an arrangement.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Apart from the mixing desk, amp mics, speakers and DI box, yes. I bring my own amp, guitars, stands, leads and pedals etc. I do have my own vocal mic but I don't bring this as I know most venues have one.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
I am more than open to learning new songs to suit the occasion of the event. I can learn songs very quickly depending on the difficulty. If the song(s) is fairly challenging I would require at least a days notice and an additional fee of £30 in order to cover extra rehearsal time.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
Most people who I have performed to enjoy the fact that I play guitar to a very high standard and perform songs that a lot of people enjoy but at the same time aren't over played. I have been complemented on my vocal skills and have delivered these results consistently.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have performed at the Old School House (Blackburn Lane Barnsley), The Royal Standard (aka The RS Bar, Sheffield) The Old Crown (Sheffield), The White Bear (Barnsley), Pour House (Barnsley) and The Norman (Barnsley).
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
I am influenced mostly by Yngwie Malmsteen, KISS, Joe Satriani and Megadeth. I like these artist the most because they are quite heavy and I enjoy performing their songs. Malmsteen, Satriani and Megadeth songs are challenging on guitar and I feel they showcase the best of my instrumental skills. Whereas KISS songs showcase my vocal skills more.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
The highest profile gig I feel I have performed at so far was at the Norman last August as it had the biggest outdoor crowd I've ever played to. I enjoy playing to large audiences as it provides me with the opportunity to bring more pleasure to more people.
