Customer questions

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

We always try our 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 us know.”

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

Yes of course as long as you decide what tyle of music you'd like playing!

How much time do you need to set up?

About an hour before hand is good

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

Absolutely, any tunes you want me to play let me know with a reasonable amount of time before hand so I can learn them.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I bring all my own equipment, though let me know if you have a sound system as this would be very handy for me to use!

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Of course! As long as you let me know with a reasonable amount of time before hand (a couple weeks before is usual) then I can learn any specific pieces you ask for.
