Dear Eloise Thank you!! You were fabulous and completely made the evening perfect. You have a fantastic talent combined with a wonderful personality. I’m sorry we didn’t help you to load your car and say a proper goodbye- you started the dancing off so well that we just got carried away I hope that your journey home was smooth and that you managed a little New Year celebration yourself! Yours with sore feet but a big smile Sarah

Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

I am a solo act but I play regularly with string quartets.

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

I can be flexible with timings particularly if booked far in advance as I know things can change.

How much time do you need to set up?

I like to arrive 1 hour before the performance to set up and sound check.

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

I have an extensive repertoire list and I'm happy to play detailed requests.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I have my own sound equipment and lighting.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If there is a special song that you would like I can put this together for free. Any other requests I charge £40 per song choice.
