Lilac was amazing. it was such a sad day for us but she managed to get us singing and even dancing by the end! I can’t praise her enough. We will hopefully book Lilac again for a happier occasion

I just wanted to say a huge thank you from myself and Alisha. We had the best day on Friday and we loved having you there playing during the ceremony and drinks. We actually never initially intended to have a musician at our wedding but when we heard you sing at Shelley’s wedding, we knew you would make our wedding even more special and you definitely did. You have been so amazing throughout what has been a difficult year. You’ve been great with us having to move the date and with all of the song choices so truly thank you for everything. It was so nice to have a chat with you as well and I hope you managed to get a glass of Prosecco before you left :) Having my wife to be walking down the aisle to you singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow was truly so special and our guests were raving about the music you played.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients repeatedly mention the showmanship & crowd engagement, alongside my special attention to detail and warm & friendly approach.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Wedding venues, hotels, members clubs, sports clubs, theatres, bars, restaurants, festivals, markets, fairs.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Jewel, Alanis Morisette, Chaka Khan.

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

Hurlingham Club, Hospital Club, Bloomberg, KPMG, TEZENIS to name a few.

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

I perform with a selection of accompanying musicians from duo to 6 piece band, based on your preferences & budget. Available instruments: Fiddle, mandolin, ukulele, banjo, keys, double bass, percussion, drums.

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

All my bookings include a bespoke DJ playlist service throughout the event, tailored with all your song requests. Live DJ sets are also available at a special price.

How much time do you need to set up?

I offer flexible setup solutions for all types of events and in discussion with the client, venue & event planner will ensure my setup time meets the event timings & specifications.

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

You can select ALL your songs, and even select some songs which aren’t on my list. I love learning new songs, and ensuring your show is fully-tailored and unique to your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Indeed I do. Indeed. Remember, artists can only sound as good as the amplification they’re playing through. That's why I use PAT tested high-end amplification, as well as party, stage & mood lighting (where necessary) with a dedicated engineer, to ensure everything looks & sounds just right all throughout your event.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Yes. Learning new songs keeps me quick on my feet and keeps my repertoire fresh. This will normally be free of charge. * In case you have an exceptional request (i.e song in a different language or a large number of songs especially prepared) I may have to charge a bit extra.
