Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Julian Bream and Andres Segovia.

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

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 us know.

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

This is a really popular request and I actually offer a playlist service for free.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 30 minutes before the performance time.

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. However, I'm definitely happy to chat through and make sure I find what works for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own guitar and I can play either acoustically or bring an amplifier and microphone.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

If a piece isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special composition you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £50 per piece to take into account rehearsal times etc.

Michael delivered just what we were looking for at my brother-in-law's Celebration of Life. The music Michael played was just right for the occasion - not too sombre, very beautiful and appropriate. He played just at the right level and could be heard just at the same level as the conversation so wasn't intrusive but could be heard in the background by those who wanted to focus on the music. Michael arrived promptly, set up and packed away without any fuss and was very respectful of the purpose of the day - whilst sad was also to be enjoyed in memory of Paul. Thank you Michael for being part of the day and making it a lovely experience.

Mihael played beautifully at our wedding celebration this past weekend. Beside the performance, he arrived in good time, set up swiftly and charmed our guests! His music added a great Latin flavour to our day, exactly as we had hoped. We highly recommend him!

Mihael played a lovely 3hr set for an intimate dinner party we hosted in London. He was a pleasure to liaise with throughout the whole process, from beginning to end. Very professional and speedy responses. At the event, he arrived in good time and provided the perfect ambiance outside in the garden and inside during dinner, with a range of melodies. Guests were very complimentary too. I'd definitely book him again!
