Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
Adding that bespoke touch to each and every event. I tailor all events to what you would like personally on the day and I’m always very flexible.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have performed all over the world at prestigious venues including The Dorchester, Monte Carlo Casino Theatre, Harrods, RHS Chelsea Flower Show, Sofitel Berlin, Princess of Wales Theatre Toronto, The Langham, The NED, 100 Club, Royal Festival Hall, all no.1 UK Theatres, Natural History Museum, The Roundhouse, Grovsenor House, ITV and BBC Studios
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
I have always listened to an array of different styles of music from folk, jazz, gypsy jazz, classical, pop and r&b music. All of these styles of music have influenced my playing and I am able to easily adapt my playing style to different genres of music
Do you have different line-up options?
My line up is solo acoustic violin, amplified violin with backing tracks, electric violin with backing tracks. You can have a mixture of all for your event, or whichever suits your event best.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try my best to be flexible to help insure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know with enough notice. If there is a significant change in playing time then we can take another look at costs and try and accommodate the changes.
How much time do you need to set up?
I usually arrive 45 minutes prior to my playing time and will need 30 minutes to set up my PA and sound check. It’s a small PA so doesn’t take much time at all to set up.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Yes absolutely! I personally tailor my set lists to what you would like musically and I am very flexible in regards to being led by the type of style or mood you would like on the day.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I provide absolutely everything! Only thing I will need is a plug socket nearby.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
Yes that is no problem at all. I just ask to be given 1 months notice of the pieces you would like. You can choose a maximum of 3 songs that you love and this is included in my wedding ceremony package.
