Really impressive musician.. we booked jonty 1 week before our Xmas party and he responded quickly. His talent is very impressive and he played along to RNb and afro Beat music on the night fantastically. Overall highly recommend.. I would add, he wasn't the type to go into the crowd and dance along, if this is a preference. We really enjoyed, everyone enjoyed his talent.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

My passion and enthusiasm when it comes to playing with the crowd.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have played at weddings, hen parties, boat parties, 21st birthdays, receptions, dinners, and jazz events.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

I have been influenced by a range of different artists such as Gerald Albright and John Coltrane

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

I have played many high profile gigs however the one which really sticks out for me is when I played at a 5 hour boat party on the River Thames.

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

We 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 us 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. If you'd like a DJ service via our PA after the final set until the venue closes, we provide this for an additional £100.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 20 minutes before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up we can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!

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

Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're 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! I bring my own instrument to play acoustically.

Can you learn song requests 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.
