Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

They enjoy the creativity and consistency of the rhythms I provide. I can perform every piece with great attention to timing, patience and energy.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

The following: Gunnersbury Baptist Church in Chiswick, Luna in Leytonstone, Sindercombe Social in Shepherd's Bush, Guildford, a home in Hayes, French Woods Festival in the USA, Twyford C. of E. High School.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

I'd say a blend of the following: Earth, Wind & Fire, Will Smith, Cobus (YouTube drummer), Brazil Essential Album, Alter Bridge, Queen's of the Stone Age, Sovereign Grace Music, Sir David Wilcocks (late Carol Conductor) and Owl City.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

It was for a Circus show in French Woods Festival - US summer camp - in 2019. We provided rock, pop and funk music for aerobatic circus performances which had to be well-timed and disciplined. This was a high-profile gig as the focus of the entire show was mainly on the circus; we were required only to perform when directed to!

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

Although I work 9-5, I am always willing to try to adapt to changes to ensure the smooth running of events. Just as long as I know in advance, I will be happy to help you out with any changes to a schedule.

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

Yes, I'll be willing to provide a good selection of songs from my Spotify list. This is so that we can maintain the theme of your event, which is, of course, music.

How much time do you need to set up?

I would say up to 1 hour to set up the drum kit. I could also set up the PA in the meantime to provide some meaningful background music to keep your guests preoccupied with music! This would be before we perform.

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

You may definitely choose pieces from my set list to ensure you can provide guests with the best possible entertainment.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I can transport all the equipment I need to perform. I currently own a Vauxhall Corsa, which should consist of enough room to fit the drum kit. If that isn't enough, I'd be flexible to include additional transport or hire a larger vehicle should you need sound equipment and/or additional instruments.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, of course! I would be very happy to learn a piece prior to the event if I have not heard of it before.
