Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

My Vocal ability mixed with an eclectic taste in music means i can sing most styles to please most people, that's a recurring compliment i find i get. Also, a good sense of humour means no set is ever going to be boring!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I've performed at countless venues through my 13 year career from Ski slopes in the Alps to Concert halls in City Centres down to local clubs and pubs and i have to say i loved them all equally! Music is music and people are people, we just vibe!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Chris Stapleton, Teddy Swims, Paul Weller, Ray Lamontagne, David Coverdale, James Morrison are just a few voices i've loved listening to and studying while trying to find my own sound.

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

I performed with Waylon, a famous country singer in The Netherlands for a 600 year anniversary concert in a city called Hilversum to Thousands of people. Waylon was my coach on 'The Voice'.

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?

Absolutely! You can select this service in the 'add-on' section of the booking.

How much time do you need to set up?

“We usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. We can also provide a playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for our live performance!”

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

“Our set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, we're definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event. ”

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, if you request the PA system the only thing we require are plug sockets to plug everything in to!

Can you learn song requests before the event?

“If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like us to learn we are happy to do this for you. There is a fee of £30 for this service to take into account rehearsal times etc. ”
