Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

I am a professional musician who has performed at some very special venues including Wembley, NEC, SEC, and all the major venues across the UK.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Biggest influence would be John Lennon. I couldn't choose a favourite artist or a favourite song as this changes each week.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started gigging when I was 14, so quite a lot of experience.


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I love private events such as private house parties, but as a keen golfer, I also love doing golf events.


How much space do you need?

Very little. I can comfortably work in a square metre if necessary. However, 2msq is about right.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

All performance times are arranged to suit your event. From a one hour set to any variation such as 2 x 45 minute sets, 2 x 1-hour sets. I can arrange a less imposing background set to create a pleasant atmosphere for arrivals, deliver a full-on party dance set or provide a mix of both.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, nor problem. Take a look at some of my photos!!!


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Yes. My set is highly influenced by the client.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

People often say how much fun the event was and respecting their wishes. If a quite set is required during dinner, that's fine. If a party is what you're after, that's what I do best. I often do both at the same gig!
