Which artists have you been most influenced by?
So many, but to note a few - Corinne Bailey Rae, Lianne la Havas, Regina Spektor, Gabrielle Aplin, Joni Mitchell, Adele and Norah Jones.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Don't worry, it happens! Just let me know as soon as anything changes and I will do my best to be flexible and adapt to your timings to help things run as smoothly as possible.
How much time do you need to set up?
I like to arrive at a venue around 1.5 hours before performance time, and setup/pack down time is usually around 20 minutes.
If I have a piano at my venue, are you happy to perform on that?
Yes of course - as long as the piano is in working order and in tune, then I'm happy to play on it!
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
You are more than welcome to choose songs from my set list in advance. Alternatively, I can choose songs suitable for the audience and mood at the time.
Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?
Absolutely! I have a Nord Stage keyboard and Bose PA.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
If a song isn't included in my set list, there may still be a chance I already know it or can learn it for you.
You are welcome to request up to 3 songs in advance, at no extra cost.
