Davina The most elegant Jazz act for your special events

I need a performance space of at least 2 meters x 3 meters. I'd also need a power socket with a minimum of 3 spots, and 1 parking space.

I need to know any directions that will help me find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment. Moreover, it is important to me to have a room which can be locked, where I can leave my belongings, get changed and retire to when I am not performing.

I do provide my own PA System but no lighting.

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.

My favorite production has been the "7 senses" dinnershow in Villa Thalia (Rotterdam). It was a great show full of special features and moments, a show where I felt I could shine and grow as an artist!

Il love contributing to people's special moments/celebrations by creating the perfect atmosphere, adding that one special layer that enriches and deepens the connection between people.

Since the age of 18 I played at countless events, from private to corporate, weddings, anniversaries, backyard birthday parties, but I also performed at festivals and on important stages with my own original music.

My absolute favorite song is Black Coffee, especially the version of Sarah Vaughan with orchestra. I still get the chills when I hear her low velvety voice singing those bitter bluesy lines.

I like to arriva 2 hours in advance to load out, get to know the client in person and/or the personnel, familiarize with the space and make sure the sound is perfectly set for the room, before I retire in my changing room for the last touches, outfit change and a short vocal warm up. I usually take short breaks of 20 up to 30 minutes in between sets to rest and recharge my voice, unless the event requires a different flow - I am very flexible about that.

I love playing outside when the conditions are optimal for the performance: if it's winter, I'll need an outdoor heater nearby and protection from the rain with a big enough tent/gazebo, if the forecast mentions the possibility of rain; on hot summer days, I'll need a tent/gazebo to repair myself and my gear from the heat. Power supply nearby the stage is also always necessary.

Outside of my repertoire, I can prepare up to 5 extra songs, when that is communicated long in advance. The existing repertoire can always be discussed when there's a preference for a vibe rather than another, to make sure that the client is satisfied.

My previous clients describe my performances as elegant and sophisticated, perfectly matching the requirements of the event, high level, and extremely relaxing in terms of pleasantness and mood.

Of course! If you have a certain idea and topic in mind, a special message for a loved one, I can write a song for you for an additional fee.
