About / Biography

Hi, I'm Martin.

Over the last twelve years I've built up a huge repertoire of material, and a wealth of experience in performing at all kinds of functions and events. I've performed at private functions, on boats, functions on boats, on live radio (so far no radio shows on boats) and at hundreds of venues across the country. Previous clients of mine have included The Labour Party, Emerson Electric and Tough Mudder. I am equally capable of providing an upbeat set of songs for your guests to sing and dance along to, or a more relaxed set of songs to set the mood for dinner or drinks.

Should you be interested, I also perform as part of an acoustic duo and in a three piece function band. If you'd like to consider adding these options I'm more than happy to discuss them with you.

Additionally every client gets to request one song for free, so if you would like to dance your first dance to a live performance of your favourite track I can make that happen.

As well as all this I am also able to provide a complimentary laptop DJ service, so that there's always music playing at your event from beginning to end.

If you have any questions feel free to get in touch any way you like. I'll always endeavour to respond within 24 hours and do our best to meet your needs.
Thank You.

Martin.
