Customer questions

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

I am always willing to be flexible and adapt to any changes that might come up. Just give me a 'heads up' prior to your event.

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

Yes, shortly before and during breaks is absolutely possible. I'm also happy to offer curate personalised playlists for an additional fee.

How much time do you need to set up?

A preferable set up time would be anything from 1 to 1.5 hours ahead of the performance.

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

My ability to create the perfect set list has stood me in good stead these past 40 years. However, I'm totally open to discussing your song preferences and creating the perfect playlist for you and/or event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I am able to bring a small compact system for intimate and local venues. Happy tochat about any necessary extra equipment, however, this will come at an additional costs depending on distance and venue size. I believe in transparency and extra charges will all be discussed and agreed upon prior to booking.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes. After 40 years in this business, there is still the possibility I do not know a certain song. Lol. There may be an extra fee depending on song difficulty and backing track availability.
