Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try my best to be flexible. If timings change just let me know.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
This would not be a problem at all. If you would like me to provide a DJ service after our final set I would be happy to do this for an additional fee.
How much time do you need to set up?
I usually set up 1-2 hours before I am due to play.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
This would not be a problem. I would work with you to curate the best set list for your event and with enough notice be able to learn certain requests.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I am able to provide PA and Lighting for your event.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
With enough notice I would be happy to learn certain requests.
What do your clients love most about your performances?
I have had compliments on my song choices as i have picked songs for a mixed age group so there should be something for everyone.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have been lucky enough to play in many different venues both as a solo, duo and in a band. I have played a wedding in a barn on a haystack, an 18th birthday party on a boat and in many esteemed venues such as Mathern Place and Hestercombe house & gardens
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
I have always loved all different types of music. Growing up in the 90s I was influenced by the divas.
