Public liability insurance of £5 million

I am a fun-loving and diverse musician who has performed professionally from the age of 14. I grew up in a musical household where my parents and brothers all perform for a living. Please read on to see what I can offer you. My primary instrument is the flute. I have experience in classical orchestras, pantomimes, theatre, concertos, chamber music groups, solo entertainment sets and jazz flute. Having graduated from Birmingham Conservatoire and been taught by Michael Cox for several years previous, I am a flexible, easy-going flautist with a wealth of experience. One highlight would be my performance of the Ibert Flute Concerto. My second love is drums. I have experience in pantomime's, wedding bands, Warner Leisure hotel house band and theatre productions. Finally, the piano was my first instrument, as with most professionals. I currently perform solo entertainment sets on the keyboard and singing. These sets are suitable for parties, weddings, and pub gigs. Although if you don't want me centre stage, I am more than happy to do 'background music sets' if that is what you would prefer. All in all, I have a lot to offer you in either performance or behind the scenes. I enjoy music tech, arranging popular songs and teaching - any musical challenge and I am your man. I hope you will have confidence in booking me - I am an easy-going, flexible and friendly musician who will always try to go the extra mile.

Customer questions

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

I always try my 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. If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after the final set until the venue closes, I provide this for an additional £80.

How much time do you need to set up?

Usually between 15-30 minutes.

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

I am always happy to chat through what songs and pieces you would like to hear 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 there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you.
