Jazz
I'll play almost any jazz standard from the Bb realbook. (If you know, you know)
I need a minimum of 3 square meters of space, and ideally a parking space. I can perform completely self-contained on battery power for up to three hours if required! After that a plug socket would be necessary.
I can bring a PA system suitable for up to 300 guests. No lighting support is available.
Whether power and rain cover (if applicable) are available, whether there are any restrictions on amplified noise, and the capacity of the room I am performing in (if applicable)
Yes, absolutely! I provide an iPod service between sets in the same location as standard, free of charge for a minimum of thirty minutes. Please ask if you can extend this service for additional time, across different locations, or before or after the timings of my performance. This could incur a modest additional charge, optimised to each booking.
I think "best gig" has to be a very emotional last performance with my university Big Band, underneath Concorde in Patchway, Bristol. I had been running the group for the last three years and had formed some life-long friendships there, so it was an absolutely brilliant send-off for me.
My most prestigious venue? A showcase at the Royal Albert Hall! A big band set to an audience of over 2000 minors and accompanying guardians, including some solo features.
I've been inspired by a huge variety of saxophonists and other musicians over the last decade, although my strongest recent influence has to be Shabaka Hutchings! His work with "The Comet is Coming" has been stellar, and something I aspire to replicate.
"Greatest song of all time" is an incredibly challenging prompt to answer, but, I think a great contender is "Shofukan" by Snarky Puppy. It seamlessly blends so many different genres under one song, and the musicianship is of course fantastic throughout.
I'm really lucky to have had experience playing almost every genre of music under the sun! I originally found my voice on the instrument through district Big Bands and fronting my own sextet, but since then I've performed in a huge variety of groups, all the way from Springsteen to ambient electronica.
Any event where I am dancing with the audience! I absolutely love the crowd interaction aspect of my performances, and it's really amazing to see them enjoying themselves to the fullest when I'm on the dance floor with them.
I aim to arrive at hour in advance of any performance, and normally aim for earlier still to make sure that this is consistently the case no matter the travel conditions.
Set up / pack down: roughly 30 minutes
Yes! I can perform on battery power if this is required. I would politely ask for some kind of cover to be provided if there is any risk of rain.
You can pick as many songs as you'd like from my songlist, in addition to two songs of your choosing for me to learn!
In one word, that would be ENERGY! Most audiences comment in some way that my playing makes them feel 'alive' in that special way that's difficult to put your finger on.
