Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
Clients love that I’m punctual, respectful, smart & always provide a great service.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I’ve played at wedding & event venues all over the southeast, with standout ones being The London Dungeon, The Marquee Club, Old Thorns Liphook, Rivervale Barn Yately, Sheraton Park Lane, Amberley Castle, Botleys Mansion, Clock Barn Hall, Loseley Park, Woodlands Park Hotel, Luton Hoo, Mandarin Oriental Knightsbridge
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Mostly by the greats of Motown & Soul like Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Temptations, but also by the jazz greats like Charlie Parker, Stan Getz, Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
A couple of high profile gigs stand out, which were playing for Harvey Goldsmith’s birthday party at The London Dungeon & also playing for the wedding of one the dancers from Strictly Come Dancing at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Knightsbridge - both gigs were fabulous to play, with many famous faces in the audience.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I’m always flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. It’s no problem if timings change in the run up to the event…just let me know & I’ll rearrange to suit.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes, that’s no problem at all & is provided free of charge. I use either my own playlists or can play your own creation.
How much time do you need to set up?
I like to arrive about 90 minutes before to make sure there’s plenty of time to set up & make sure everything is tidy. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for my live performance!
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Yes that’s no problem - my set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best, but I’m happy to chat through and add any specific requests.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, absolutely! I bring my own instruments to play acoustically & through my Bose PA system.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If a song isn't shown in my song list, I more than likely know it anyway, but if there is a special song you'd like me to learn, I am happy to do this for you.
