Customer questions

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

I always try my 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 me know.

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

Absolutely. This is a really popular request and I actually offer this service for free. If you'd like a DJ service via my PA after the final set until the venue closes, I can provide this for an additional fee dependant on timings.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually set up about 1 to 1.5 hours before the performance time. As soon as our PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance!

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

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests dance and have an amazing time. However, I'm 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, absolutely!

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.

What do your clients love most about your performances?

The energy and good music!

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Numerous wedding venues, clubs, bars across the UK. Also performed at venues such as Pizza Express in Soho, Omeara, and other big gig venues across London.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

So many! As a saxophonist artists such as David Sanborn, Gerald Albright, Michael Brecker, Cannonball Adderly and John Coltrane have been huge to me. Pop music wise, Bruno Mars, Michael Jackson, George Benson, Luther Vandross, Earth Wind and Fire. The list could go on for a long time...

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

I performed for Prince William and the Royal Duchess of Cambridge for a charity event they were hosting at Houghton Hall.
