About Trev

"Experienced Rock/Pop Singer/lead guitarist, with a great upbeat song list guaranteed to fill the dance floor and impress your guests!"
Singing guitarist
Uckfield
Public liability insurance of £10 million

I am a very experienced Lead Vocalist / Lead Guitarist with a smooth, dynamic blues influenced lead playing style, and a strong and distinctive singing voice. I have gained tons of experience in the music business over many years, taking in support tours with some fantastic bands including, Thin Lizzy, ACDC, Dr Feelgood and many more, as well as enjoying studio recording sessions with other well known artists, but probably the strangest and most memorable experience, was sitting in the studio chatting with Freddie Mercury whilst we drank hot chocolate hahaha!, during a time when we were both signed with EMI. In the 90's, I formed the five piece 'Mirage International Showband' earning a highly regarded name, and going on to complete many successful summer seasons for Butlins and Haven Holidays, as well as many cruises and club tours and recently, I have performed overseas in some top class iconic hotel venues and clubs, and enjoyed performing for the British Ambassador several times. I have been described as having a zany sense of humour, and being a mischievous on-stage performer, who quickly and easily connects with any audience, and with top quality backing tracks, love performing Rock and Pop classic songs from the 70's & 80's as well as some more recent songs and some Gary Moore Blues greats. I take enormous pride in being thought of as a thoroughly professional, presentable and easy to work with performer, with a song list that's long and varied and appealing to most audiences. I'm proud to announce that my debut solo single was recently released in November 2023, and was well received, having been featured as 'Track of the Day' on BBC Radio Surrey & Sussex, with my 6th single release due out on November 1st 2024.

Trev was fantastic! His performing was brilliant from the agreed set list plus fielding requests. He is a real talent with a great personality which added to the performance! It was perfect for my mums birthday party. He was great at communicating and arrived on time, he made our party- I would highly recommend him! If you’re not convinced watch his YouTube songs!

Trevor gave an amazing performance on New Years Eve, the place was jumping with excellent vocal talent he had my guests really entertained and engaged. The evening was such a success that I have rebooked him not only for next year and for 3rd February but will be booking probably a dozen further dates over this year. Thanks Trevor you made the night.

Was a breeze from beginning to end. Trev's prompt response and friendliness, before the event, gave reassurance. On the actual day he was fantastic… performance and personality, arriving early, which again gave reassurance. He was upbeat, engaging and even played an impromptu song request! I would highly recommend him. We’ve had great feedback following our corporate event. I hope we can work with him again in the future.

Customer questions

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

No problem at all, as long as I can be given as much notice as possible, in case I need to adjust my travel plans etc!

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

Absolutely! and I can also arrange to play your own ipad/ipod music through my system if you wish.

How much time do you need to set up?

I require a minimum of one hour to have everything unloaded and set ready to perform, but as soon as my PA is set up, I play recorded music to create a nice welcoming atmosphere for any early arrivals! In the case where my large lighting rig is booked, we need an additional three hours to rig up.

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

My set list is well crafted and balanced, after years of experience of knowing what works best to create a great atmosphere for all, and to make sure everyone has a super time, but I'm always happy to chat about any ideas you have!

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Absolutely! I am completely self contained, and only needing a 13amp power supply.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

Absolutely yes! Just let me know as far in advance as possible and I am happy to learn one or two requests for you. I also make an additional charge of £50 per request, to cover any backing tracks and rehearsal costs.
