I need a small performance area and I can move to different areas very quickly as I use a small PA speaker that is battery powered. If needed I also have a larger PA depending on the venue. I require a parking space near the venue.
I need to know any directions to find your venue and where to unload/load my equipment. Also could you inform me if there is a sound limiter in the venue.
I'm completely self contained. I bring my own PA systems to all my gigs and I have access to a simple lightning rig.
Yes I'm happy to play your playlist, before, after and in-between my sets. I can choose the music myself or the client can choose the music and a playlist for them will be created
I performed on the main stage at Middlewich Festival supporting Seth Lakeman to an audience of over 2000 people. It was an incredible atmosphere seeing the audience sing to songs I've written was an event I won't forget. I've also backed Peter Howarth, the lead singer from the Hollies.
I always love to play at all sorts of events but weddings are my favourite. Everyone's happy and always wanting to dance or sing along .
I started gigging while at secondary school and my performances have developed from there joining various bands and as a solo artist I've been performing worldwide on cruiseships since 2016. I've also performed at weddings venues and festivals throughout the UK.
I've been hugely influenced by artists such as Mark Knoffler, Eric Clapton, Fairport Convention, The Beatles the pioneers of rock and blues
My normal setup time is 30m before the performance. I can perform up to 4hr of music depending on your event.
I'm happy to perform outside but I ask that there is cover, a flat level surface and power supply close to the performance area
The clients are always welcome to pick a set list from my repertoire list or I can choose the music for them. I can also learn specific songs before the event but I usually limit this to 5 songs.
Previous clients would describe me as heartfelt, personable and they like the laid back live feel of my music taking popular songs and adding my own arrangements that suits both audiences that want to listen or get their feet dancing.
My setup time usually takes up to 30m. I can perform up to 4hr but usually its 2x45 or 2x60m with short breaks inbetween.
Yes providing its not raining and there is plenty of cover.
Yes I'm happy to discuss songs with the client and can learn songs if needed.
Heartfelt, engaging and fun
