About Zalan

Velvet vocals, singalongs & heartfelt ballads — street-tested, stage-ready acoustic singer-guitarist with 50+ covers. Tailored to your vibe.
Singing guitarist
Thornton Heath

Music has been the centre of my life since I was 19. Over the last five years, I’ve written hundreds of songs and performed in a wide range of settings, building my career from the ground up. I moved to London to pursue performing full-time, drawn to the unique connection music creates between people. I started out busking, learning to read any audience and adapt instantly — skills that have shaped me into a versatile acoustic singer/guitarist. I now perform regularly in pubs, open mics, and private events, delivering everything from relaxed background sets to energetic singalongs. My repertoire includes covers across pop, rock, and classics, plus seasonal favourites, and I can perform with high-quality backing tracks for a fuller sound when needed. I focus on creating the right atmosphere for each venue — warm, engaging, and tailored to the crowd. Professionalism is a priority: I arrive early, bring reliable, compact equipment, and am available at short notice for last-minute bookings. If you’re looking for an acoustic performer who brings passion, versatility, and energy to every event, I’d love to make your night memorable.
