Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

I really enjoy engaging with the audience and making them part of the night, after all I'm there for you and your guests. People are often surprised at the range and power of my voice which allows me to perform a huge variety of songs either in the original key or very close to it so that the audience can sing along the way they know it.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

The Cavern (Liverpool) Ghillie Dhu (Edinburgh) The Inn on the Mile (Edinburgh) The Caves (Edinburgh) BBC Radio Scotland The Granary (Edinburgh) Compton Street, London Pride The Miller (London) Big in Falkirk (Festival) Melrose 7s (International Rugby event)

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

I've been massively influence by Motown growing up. All the big names from Funk, Soul and Disco have played a huge role in my passion for music and have songs in my all time favourite list. I love all genres of music and have favourites from everywhere; Foo Fighters, Queen, Basement Jaxx, Royal Blood, Aretha Franklin, Betty Wright, Allen Stone, The Killers

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

I supported Wheatus in Glasgow as part of their UK Acoustic tour in 2008. I have also had the pleasure of performing live on BBC Radio Scotland and being a featured artists on three songs with Avatar Darko, an American Rap artist.

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

I will always do my best to work around the clients schedule. If you need to discuss any changes, I'll do my best to work around those. Please contact me as soon as you can once you know there will be a change to the schedule.

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

I always have an iPad on standby with a background music playlist ready to go. If you would like a custom playlist played please contact me to discuss this. For DJ service please see my Add-ons. This service starts from £150 for the first hour.

How much time do you need to set up?

I like to have an hour to set up, this allows for enough time should the venue have parking restrictions or difficult access. Once the equipment is in, set up usually takes less than 30 minutes.

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

I'm always happy to discuss the playlist.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Absolutely. I can provide different PA systems depending on the type and size of event/venue/ If you would like any other extras like lighten please contact me to discuss.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc.
