Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I am usually flexible with time changes and just ask that you can provide as much notice as possible if there is a time change.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Unfortunately, this is something I couldn't offer.
How much time do you need to set up?
I normally set up abut 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Of course, however I am also happy to chat through and make sure we find what works best for your event.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
If I am performing with piano, I will bring my electric piano if there isn't one at the venue. It is a bonus if your venue has a piano, however.
Can you learn specific pieces 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.
