Frequently Asked Questions

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

Performed to audience of several thousands at many outdoor festivals and they have all had their own fantastic vibe. Although it can be great fun to just perform at an intimate event as that can be very personal and rewarding.


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

Elton John and Billy Joel. For Elton I would say Your Song (although there really are way too many to chose from) and for Billy Joel I would say Scenes From An Italian Restaurant.


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

I started Forever Elton in 2018 at a charity rock concert although all I started performing at theatres as a keyboardist and musician a long time before that, starting when I was 11 years old.


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

Any event where the audience love Elton John's music!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

2x45 minutes is a typical set length. Setup for the solo show is about 60 minutes and the band can be about 90 minutes.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Absolutely! Forever Elton has performed both solo and with the band outside at parties and festivals.


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

Typically due to the nature of the show the set list has been defined after many years of performing to know what songs to start and end the shows and when to get the audience up dancing. Although I'm always happy to discuss.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would say what a wonderful experience they've had,how they love the party atmosphere and how talented we are as musicians.


Do you mime or play the piano live?

The piano is ALWAYS played live by Forever Elton. First and foremost this is a musical show performed by musicians so Forever Elton is always playing the piano based on Elton John's performances.


Is Elton John's music ballads or does it include any upbeat songs?

Elton John's music is vast and varied having been writing and performing since the 1970's, he's had hits covering 5 decades which means there are so many great songs to choose from. The show is usually more laid back in the first set with popular ballads such as Your Song, Rocket Man, Sorry A Seems To Be The Hardest Word, Circle Of Life, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me but then there are many more upbeat songs such as Cold Heart, I'm Still Standing, Kiss The Bride, Saturday Night, and of course Crocodile Rock, which can get any party going!


Are you solo or a band?

Both options are available.

Where budget and space allows then you can't beat a dedicated live band and The Forever Elton show is available as a either a 4, 5 or 6 piece act.

But recognising that there are times when a band is not viable, a solo performance can suit. Some numbers are live acoustic such as Your Song and Rocket Man, being played just on the on piano and vocals (which goes down a treat) with many other numbers also including a backing track, particularly for the upbeat songs such as I'm Still Standing and Crocodile Rock, either way the piano is always performed live.
