Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I will require a minimum of two three-pin 13 amp sockets, a reasonable space to set up in and somewhere close to the venue to park, unload and load the equipment (in most instances i will be travelling in van so please let me know in advance of any low access points) Please contact me if you need to discuss any issues or queries with performance space.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, Included in my quote is the supply of a professional and high quality full PA and lighting system. For peace of mind all gear is fully insured along with myself as a musician, including public liability.


What information do you require about a venue?

Parking for a MWB van and clear directions to help me find the venue and find the right place to load. It would be advantageous to know if there are any venue limitations such as sound limiter


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

I can supply a Spotify service for before, after and between the sets and would be more than happy to use your pre-made sets.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

I have played at many locations as solo or as part of a band. It would be difficult to name just one event but I would certainly like to let you know about the time I played at a wedding where the best-man wanted to sing a couple of songs . In the lead up to the wedding we met and rehearsed so he could feel prepared for the big day.


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

This again is a tricky one, I do enjoy listening to the Foo Fighters and Gorillaz. Although my personal playlist can vary much like the set lists I play.


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

I have been performing music since I was 15 and loved every moment of it. Playing loads of weddings and even more pubs - I see these as the bread and butter of music and give chances for clients to come and see what we are like prior to booking.


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

All events! They all their own set of challenges and meeting new people. I thrive on responses from the audience and try my best to play requests - if I know them.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Typically, I would arrive 1 hour prior to the performance, and perform 2 x 45/2 x 60 min (maximum of 30 min break) sets but happy to negotiate. Whilst I would play more typically I have found that audiences engage better in the shorter time slots


Are you happy to perform outside?

I am happy to play outside but will require power close to the performance area, shelter and a flat surface to perform on. In colder weather performance times may be reduced as this can have adverse effects on my vocals.


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

I am more than happy to learn specific songs before an event as long as the client is aware that due to instrumentation and vocal range; these might not be possible - I am no Pavarotti.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

I have often had great feedback on my arrangement of songs and how I interact with the audience.
