Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I can provide everything needed including a cool led stage light. I can squeeze into a tight spot and can cater for everything from singing in a corner to large stage/events.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, I have everything covered. Fully self- contained. I can go battery-powered too for events that don't have power supply! I did this recently in a field in a tipi, for a small event.


What information do you require about a venue?

Great to know about parking and loading in and out.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

I have 3hr+ playlist of all kinds of songs that I can play between and before sets.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

I love playing for Park Foot Holiday Park, Pooley Bridge. It's always a great night with the audience singing along and dancing. It's a great show for families with songs for everyone. My best gig was Cornerhouse, Lancaster for Lancaster music festival 2024. The place was absolutely buzzing with 200+ people having a great night, at one point the bar owner set off the smoke machine and the crowd went wild! I had people stopping me in the street later on, saying how much of amazing night they'd all had.


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

I love Fleetwood Mac and Florence and the Machine, so inspiring.


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

I've been in a few bands, I once played at Kendal Calling on the local stage, on bass. I've played with all kinds jazz, folk and rock bands, but I love playing solo, it's really freeing to do a bit of everything and surprise the audience with my vocals! I've played bars, pubs, restaurants, festivals, holiday parks and I even played for EasyJet for a conference group who were heading abroad!


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

Intimate pubs are great - it can get a bit wild and I can let my hair down... then the audience follows!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

1 hr pre performance, 30 min maximum to set up. I can provide 2x45min, 3x 30mins, happy to do a little more.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, I've done this a few times now for private parties.


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

I can take requests to play specific songs, if it's new to me I prefer this in advance to give me time to learn them! I can provide full set list and people can pick their favourites.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

'Really good as always' was a quote from the manager at the most recent gig.
I'm family friendly, vary songs and sets to what the audience will enjoy I like to tailor the music to the atmosphere and crowd.
