Rida's Reviews

5 out of 5

Rida has an easy-going and relaxed demeanour that makes him a pleasure to work with. He is professional and meticulous in his approach to guitar work, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure the task is completed to the best possible end. His guitar playing itself is virtuosic and impressive. Rida is equally comfortable with flamboyant, sparkling solos as he is with precise, tight guitar riffs and chords. I can recommend him very highly.

Customer questions

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

I’m very flexible and am happy to accommodate any changes with enough notice.

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

I can provide a playlist before and after my performance yes. However I do not own a DJ decks, but I have other ways to play them.

How much time do you need to set up?

30 minutes minimum- 1 hour maximum (depending on equipment needed)

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

Yes, I will curate my show based on your preference

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I have my own set up for smaller shows where I can bring my own speakers (at extra cost). However if the venue has a main sound system I can plug into those.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes absolutely, as long as I have a bit of notice as I like to make sure I know the track 100%
