I recently retired and now focused on performing a warm, enjoyable set of classic hits from the 50s, 60s and 70s for care homes, restaurants, private events and community occasions.
My repertoire includes well-loved songs by artists such as Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly, Cliff Richard, The Platters and many more — from relaxed ballads to upbeat favourites people know and love to sing along with.
I aim to create a friendly atmosphere with familiar music, whether that means gentle background entertainment for dining venues or a lively nostalgic singalong for residents, guests and audiences.
I provide a reliable, personable and professional solo performance, ideal for venues where warmth, nostalgia and connection with the audience matter

I am just starting out after seven years of learning Guitar and Singing the last three years I’ve spent at open mics and I have recently given a professional gig at the last open mic I performed in a bar restaurant in Chorlton , Manchester
I love to sing and play my guitar anywhere I am made to feel welcome
I provide all my own professional sound equipment
I normally arrive 30 minutes before the performance to give myself time to set up. I normally do 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 1hour sets or 3×45 minutes sets
I’m happy to play outside providing there is shade and a flat level surface
I am happy to learn a specific song before the event but I usually limit this to 5 songs
I am often told I have a lovely calming voice
