Customer questions

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

Any timing changes are fine, so long as they are communicated in advance of the event. If you require a longer setlist, please get in touch with me at least a week prior.

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

I have a Bluetooth connection and jack input on my PA system, so you can connect your own music player if required. If you don't have your own music player, I can supply music prior to the first set and between sets.

How much time do you need to set up?

I require 20 minutes for my standard setup of PA, mic and guitar. I require approximately 40 minutes if a backdrop and extra lighting are required.

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

I tailor my setlists to suit the event, but you are free to make requests, providing you give me ample notice.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I am self-contained. I request access to at least one power socket in the vicinity of the playing area.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, for an additional fee. Please message about this well in advance of the event.
