Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
My energy, professionalism and music to fit in with the wishes of the client.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have performed at Hampton Court Palace, Twickenham Stadium, Sandhurst and countless wedding venues including St Frraed's House, Old Gowar, Fairy Hill and Old Oak Farm.
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
This is a long list! I am in awe of musicians such as Aretha Franklin, Chic, James Brown, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Tom Misch and many more!
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
I have performed at the military base at the Officer's Mess in Sandhurst, as well as at a party in Twickenham stadium. I also performed in Hampton Court Palace before Chic took to the stage.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I will try to be as flexible as possible to ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If any changes occur, please just send me a message to inform me.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Certainly; this is offered for free. However, if you would like a DJ set/use of my PA system after my final set, I would have to charge extra.
How much time do you need to set up?
I will set up between 1 and 1.5 hours before the performance time.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Feel free to send requests - I will try to learn them for the event. However, the basic set will remain the same.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, you will not need to supply me with anything other than plug sockets!
Can you learn song requests before the event?
I am more than happy to learn a song or two for your event, just let me know in plenty of time!
