War is Over (If You Want It)
A dry space to be in - indoors or outdoors!
A plug is great, but if you don't have one, just let me know in advance - I can play from battery power.
I'm completely self contained, with my own PA system. I do not have a lighting system, because for most events I play this is not necessary.
The address and a rough idea of the size of the crowd.
More than happy to play music on Spotify between sets, let me know in advance. £30 charge. You may also connect your own device to my PA system via Bluetooth for free.
Festivals are always a lot of fun. Playing the Marquee at Cambridge Folk Festival was a definite highlight!
My favourite artist (at the moment!) is probably Belle and Sebastian - great songwriting and beautiful arrangements. But I've been most influenced by The Beatles, and always play a couple of theirs at my gigs.
I've been gigging since I was 13! I've played in bands, folk orchestras and solo. I love connecting with an audience and putting a smile on their face.
My favourite has to be drinks receptions at weddings. There's such a special energy in the air with friends reuniting, celebrating love, and its a real honour to be a part of that and enhance that feeling with an underscore of great music.
Setup takes about 20 minutes.
Normally, I play 2x45 or 3x45 minute sets - these allow people some time to go to the bar and catch up between enjoying the music!
Absolutely - its great playing outside! I just ask that there's a contingency plan for rain - a gazebo or somewhere else dry.
After a few years of playing, I have a good idea of what works best for an audience. However, if you have a few requests I am happy to learn them as an additional extra. Please reach out to me if you'd like a quote.
Classy!
By default, I will only play covers. If you request a mix of original music too, to provide a true element of surprise, this is available on request at no additional charge. Samples of my original music are available on this page.
