Shannon worked hard on the night but did not get engaged with the guests. Once people got dancing, the tempo change dramatically clearing the floor. Nice singer but not versatile/experienced enough to keep a mature audience captivated.

Shannon travelled a long way to sing for us (My husbands 50th birthday party) and she was amazing! Her beautiful voice and presence captured the audience as she worked her way through some amazing songs dating all the way back from the 60's to current chart music. Throughly recommend!

Shannon came and performed at our small party, singing for around 50-60 mins and she wow'd the audience with her fantastic voice and amazing presence! Would definitely recommend.

Customer questions

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

Timings are flexible, this is to help make sure your event runs as smoothly as possible. Any changes just let me know know as soon as you can.

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

Yes, I have back ground music that can be pugged into my sound system for this.

How much time do you need to set up?

35 minutes max, including soundcheck.

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

Of course. If you have any requests that aren't on the set list, for special occasions, they can be added to the set with enough advance notice.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I provide all equipment that I need to perform.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

This is a element I love in my performing. I encourage people to ask for specific songs to make events more personal. If you want a song that is not already in my existing repertoire there is a fee of £10 per song, to cover track costs and rehearsal time etc

What do your clients love most about your performances?

They love how personal and intimate they are. Through my music I generate a chilled out and relaxed atmosphere with me never wearing shoes whilst I sing and using a favourite rug and my stage space.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I have performed in pubs, hotels, at weddings, festival stages and theatres.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Kate Bush, David Bowie, George Michael. All for their creative artist merit. They aren't ashamed to be themselves and this is what I take form their music.

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

I've performed on a local festival stage to 1,500+ people.
