Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
The combination of Singing and Saxophone creates a truly unique and "5 star rated" musical experience.
The vast and varied styles of music I perform, ensure I can create unique, engaging entertainment for any occasion or part of your event day. Clients love my ability to adapt and "read a room" as well as my "charming" and fun yet professional approach.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
I have performed at countless venues and function spaces across the UK. Generally I am booked by the event organiser to provide entertainment at their wedding, corporate event, party, function, a loved one's funeral reception, bar/bat-mitzvah etc. However I am also available for commercial work at hotels, restaurants etc.
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Although I love and appreciate most styles of music, and perform so many genres, I was originally inspired by the great Rat Pack singers Sinatra, Dean Martin. Over the years I also connected with the likes of The Temptations, Barry White, The Drifters, Tom Jones, Elvis, Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder etc.
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
I have performed at many prestigious events in some of the most incredible venues in the UK.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Please get in touch to discuss. If you want to change performance times within the overall period that you have booked me, let me know and we can make the change.
If your overall event timings have changed, changes will be subject to my availability although I endeavour to accommodate you.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
I offer a DJ service with optional LED DJ Booth and lighting. You can have as much or as little input with music as you wish and requests can be taken on the night. This DJ service is ideal for parties and events to compliment the live music with amazing pre-recorded music.
If I am able to offer a basic background music service during my performance break.
How much time do you need to set up?
This depends on which services I am providing. For example, a streamlined booking consisting of e.g 2 x 45 minute Vocal and/or Sax sets can take 20-30 minutes to setup.
If I am also providing a full evening package with DJ services, need to setup more speakers or lights to accommodate a larger space, setup can take 45 minutes, depending on venue access.
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
I have a wealth of professional musical experience, having performed at around a thousand live events. Therefore I understand how to prepare amazing set lists for any occasion & period of the day.
However, you are welcome to select songs from my repertoire and I endeavour to include them at the appropriate time. I also 'read the room' and adapt on the day.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
I am fully self contained and provide all equipment for any event. This includes two top-of-the-range BOSE L1 PRO 32 PA systems, which can be used individually for smalleror in combination for up to 500 guests. I also have battery powered BOSE S1 system for use outdoors or where there is no power. I also have DJ booths, wireless microphones, DJ lighting etc.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
This may be possible but please discuss your individual needs with me. Additional charges may apply, subject to musical suitability, sheet music availability etc where appropriate.
