Customer questions

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

I am very flexible as long as I don't have a booking before or after your event.

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

Yes I am happy to do so.

How much time do you need to set up?

I would need around and hour and a half to set up, sound check and settle in. Of course this depends on the type of event.

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

Of course, I love to curate playlists according to the event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

No, I can however bring a DJ controller if needed. But will need a mixer and sound/speakers provided.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

I can most certainly create a specific playlist.
