Wedding info

Ceremony - soft acoustic guitar & singing while people take their seats, entrance, signing of register, other intermittent sections & exit (usually between 45-60mins in total)

Drinks Reception - usually in 2 sets of 45-50mins played in the afternoon while guests get acquainted. The first set is a more chilled selection of songs, followed by a more upbeat vibe while guests loosen up.

Song request - if you have a particular song for the ceremony, this can be arranged at a small extra charge but a few weeks notice is required

Set up - about 1hr before, dressed smartly or according to the wedding's dress code

Quote - The main factors are location and duration of performance. If you want both Ceremony & Drinks reception performances, the combined fee will be reduced to reflect both.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Just need enough space for myself and two speakers. Ideally 4 sockets for power.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

All my equipment and PA system is included however I don't provide lighting.


What information do you require about a venue?

I just need some power near the performance area and parking.


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

Yes, very happy to provide this before, in between and after I perform.


Can you play fully acoustically?

Absolutely! It would be just my vocals and guitars, so no kick drum or harmoniser. I don't recommend it for playing outside though as the sound doesn't travel.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

I played a sold out show in Bournemouth a few years ago, people were singing my songs back to me it was incredible!


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

I don't think I can say the greatest song of all time because it keeps changing! My writing styles are influenced by Shawn Mendes and James Arthur but I play a lot of romantic pop.


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

I've been gigging for the best part of 5 years now, playing all over the country. Originally I was writing my own songs which I often play depending on the audience.


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

I love a busy festival but I often play during wedding ceremonies which are really beautiful.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I normally arrive about an hour before to set up and make sure everything is in order. My typical sets are 1hr, 2 x 45mins, 3 x 40mins / 2 x 1hr, 3 x 50mins.


Are you happy to perform outside?

No problem, as long as there's cover from rain or sun.


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

You are welcome to select songs from the cover list or you can let me know the vibe/style you are after for each set I play and I'll translate that using the songs I know. I can learn a new song but at an extra cost.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

My previous clients like my adaptability because I manage to gauge audience and modify my setlist live. Equally a lot of my songs are not fully mainstream which people tend to like.


Can you play in a duo set up?

Unfortunately not.


Can the audience request songs during the performance?

They are welcome to ask for a few but I would prefer to manage the setlist myself.
