Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Just get in touch and let me know. I will always try to be as flexible as I can to help things run smoothly for all of us.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Of course. I can provide a set list myself or you can give me an idea of what you like and I'll do my best to accommodate.
If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after my final set until close of venue, I can provide that for an additional £100.
How much time do you need to set up?
Ideally I would aim to have 45 mins to an hour to set up and be ready before performance time.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
My set lists are built from many performances and learning what works best in which environment. However, I would always prefer to have a chat with you beforehand to find the best music to suit your guests.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes! For smaller gigs I'm ready to go as soon as I get there. For larger events, I just need power to plug into and I'm good to go!
Can you learn song requests before the event?
If it's not on my song list there's still a good chance I'll already know it. And if there's a song that's special to you but I don't know it, I will do everything I can to try and learn it for your event. There's a small fee of £20 to learn anything brand new, just to allow for rehearsal etc. If in doubt, ask me!
