Customer questions
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Usually there's no problem as long as I don't have anything else booked on the same day which could conflict times. In case time changes, please contact me as soon as possible.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Yes, for sure
But always good to send me the details so I can prepare songs that are going to be suitable for your event
How much time do you need to set up?
At least 1 hour for a solo act
For a Full band I always prefer at least 4hs to setup and sound check
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
Yes you can chose some of your favourite songs, if they are not in my repertoire I may need time in advance to learn them.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, I have everything but good to bear in mind that different venues required different setup, for instance, how many people attending the event, if it's open air festival it requires more sound, if it's a performance during daytime or might time we need to bring lights, etc
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If I know that song that's possible, I did lots of times
What do your clients love most about your performances?
I would say, versatility to adapt the sound of my vocals to the original artist.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
Everywhere in the UK and Ireland, also some places in Europe, that includes Theatres, Festivals, Weddings, Pubs, etc
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Artists from the 50's up to date
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
The most crowded was at the Mathew Festival in Liverpool.
The Theatres I really enjoyed performing in Wolverhampton and again in Liverpool at the Empire.
We also performed in Montreux, Budapeste, Bruhl, Tallin, Barcellona, they were all amazing places.
