Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
That is no issue, as long as there is clear communication between yourself and I about the timing arrangements, I’m sure we can come to an agreement and arrangement of the timings and reschedule a timing of the booking.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes, I can provide music directly from my phone to the PA system before the set to entertain the audience whilst I set up.
How much time do you need to set up?
I will need around 15 - 20 minutes to set up and ensure that the sound is comfortable to my liking and pleasing to the audience depending on the occasion and place of booking.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Absolutley! As it is your booking and your occasion, you can pick the songs from my set list that you would like me to play. If you haven't heard my originals and you would like something different, I would recommend my originals. You never know, you might just like them and take a listen to them outside of the booking!
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, all equipment required for my set I will be bringing with me. However if the venue does have a PA setup, it will be useful depending on my travel arrangements to the venue of interest.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
Yes, I do take song requests prior to the gig as long as the communication between the organiser booking me and myself is clear and finalised before the day of the gig so I can take time out of my schedule to learn the music. It is no issue and a part of my booking!
