Sam's Reviews

5 out of 5

Sam performed at my wedding. I was so nervous organising the music as I'm not very savvy with all that, but he was fantastic at taking the reigns gently and building the perfect evening. He even put together a playlist so the night could continue after he had finished. If you want a stress free day and a safe pair of hands I could't recommend him more highly.

I hired Sam to perform at my birthday party last week. He was super friendly and easy to deal with, and he nailed the vibe... 10/10 would recommend!

Customer questions

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

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let me know.

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

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after my final set until the venue closes, I provide this for an additional £150.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about an hour before the performance time. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for my live performance

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, I'm definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes absolutely if its required. Bars and venues sometimes have them in house, but I also have everything needed for a rocking night!

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If its not in the existing repertoire I can learn it. Please see the 'add ons' section for pricing.
