Customer questions

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

I always try to be as flexible as possible to ensure that your event needs are catered for and so that your event runs as smoothly as possible. I can usually accommodate slight timing changes wherever possible.

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

I do have a number of contacts who can supply DJ services, but am also happy to provide a playlist or accommodate your playlist through our PA system.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually like to be at the venue 1-2 hours in advance to set up and check the location. This varies depending on the event and I will advise this upon enquiry/booking.

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

The set list is put together through many performance experiences, meaning that you can trust that we know what usually works for certain events. I will try to accommodate a request if possible.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes absolutely. Or if the event requires more equipment (ie. larger PA system), this and the cost will be advised upon enquiry/booking.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Usually if the song is within the performance style, it is often possible to include this into the set.

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients are usually impressed by hearing an operatic voice up close and realising often that no amplification is used. They enjoy the variety of songs and the interaction with the guests to make it a more personal event.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Weddings, corporate events, awards ceremonies, theatres and concert venues.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

A mixture of operatic and rock performers- anyone that can put on good entertainment!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

For Welsh National Opera as Queen of the Night. For the Welsh Food and Drunk Awards.
