Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients love my ability to read a room and interact with a crowd! In wedding ceremonies, guests comment on my unique vocal tone!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have performed in hundred of hotels and wedding venues across the country including the Hilton and The Landmark. I've also sung in the 02 arena, Cardiff Millenium Stadium, St Davids and in Jools Holland's Club on the Spirit Of Discovery Cruise Ship.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Eva Cassidy, Nina Simone, Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Diana Washington.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Probably Jools Holland's Club!

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

I always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

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

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I actually offer this service for free.

How much time do you need to set up?

My PA system is small and compact making set up easy and quick! I'll need 30 before the performance time but I'll usually arrive 1 hour + early. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready my live performance!

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 enjoy themselves and have an amazing time. However, I'm definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely!

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a song isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £50 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
