Tyler, the creator
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
Gottwood Festival Main stage 2024 playing drums with Sweet Mess
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
I always try to be flexible and work as we go.
If there are any changes, letting me know in advance allows me to prepare better.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Absolutely!
I can provide ipod music for free or a DJ service for an extra fee
How much time do you need to set up?
Deppends on the event, The backline available and what I'm playing.
I can usually setup my Drumkit Breakables on a house kit in 5 minutes.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
You can pick anything from my set list. Letting me know in advance is great help just in case I need to review some of the songs you request.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
I am able to source all kinds of audio equipment but this will obviously come with a rental fee.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
I can learn specific songs as long as the request is done beforehand, depends on the type of music and the amount of songs but the more time I have to study them, the better my performance will be.
Even though is not an ideal situation, I have manage to learn 2h+ sets in one evening (just as a reference)
