We had the pleasure of having Gavin perform at Willowbeck Lodge. All the guests were thoroughly impressed and a great day was enjoyed by all! Gavin was professional and easy to work with throughout the day and his performance as singer and guitarist was impeccable. Highly recommended.

Customer questions

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

I always try to my best to be flexible and acomodate slight timing changes so just let me know.

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

I'm happy to play a selection of requested songs in between sets using my PA.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time.

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have a great time. However, I'm very happy to chat through the set lists and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own instrument, PA speaker and mixer.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
