We had an intimate gathering of just 24 people to celebrate our engagement. Marcelo was excellent, even had the neighbours asking the next day where we found him, will definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others.

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?

Yes.

How much time do you need to set up?

I arrive 1 hour in advance and as soon as it's ready, if the check sound is over before, I can play background music if you want before the performance starts.

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

Yes, I can leave a personalized playlist according to the musical style requested to play when I finish doing the sound check until the beginning of the performance and during the intervals. I also have a special playlist for Ibiza Style events to improvise with the saxophone that I can leave playing during the performance and breaks as well.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I have all the necessary equipment for an event of up to 200 people indoors.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

I need to know how many songs are from school in advance and as soon as I analyze depending on the advance that was requested the performance is possible.
