About / Biography

I'm a solo singer/rhythm guitarist and one-man-band performer delivering a blend of classic and contemporary hits. From the rock 'n roll rhythms and soulful crooning of the 1950's all the way to the beats of modern pop.

I have a wide vocal range, including rich baritone vocals, and catchy rhythm guitar. And I incorporate drum beats and backing tracks to boost the vibe. 😃🎸🎶

Whether you're looking for laid-back background music or an all-out dance party, I've got you covered.

My experience includes:

High-profile events: red carpet premieres, corporate functions, national television appearances, and wedding receptions.

Diverse venues: music festivals, private celebrations, restaurants, and bars.

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

No, I don't provide a DJ service.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

I performed on national television in South Africa on the most popular breakfast morning show.


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing at all sorts of events. I really don't have a favorite type of event. I love all of them.


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

The first time I sang on stage, I was five years old. It was in a big hall with a lady playing the piano while I sang. I've performed at hundreds of restaurants, corporate events, retirement resorts, festivals, wedding receptions, birthday parties, and more.


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

I've been influenced by Elvis Presley, Paul McCartney, Neil Diamond, Ed Sheeran, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Elton John, ABBA, Frank Sinatra, Robbie Williams, Michael Buble, Simon & Garfunkel, Barry Manilow, Right Said Fred, Roger Whittaker, Trini Lopez, Bee Gees, The Beatles, Kurt Darren, Bruce Springsteen, Boney M, Josh Turner, The Platters, and many more.
My favorite artist of all time is Elvis Presley because he's had the best voice so far.
I can't answer as to what the greatest song is, as there are so many songs I love.


What is your musical background?

I started singing at the age of 3 at nursery school. My first live performance on a stage, I did at the age of 5 years old. I liked all styles of music. When I was 7 years old, I heard Elvis Presley and became a huge fan. I used to often sing at school and I had my own band in high school. We did pop songs from the 1980's. When I started doing music gigs full-time, I would perform at various 1950's style diners. Then I started performing at various parties, corporate events, wedding receptions, and theme parties, where I was asked to do various styles of music and that's when my repertoire expanded to hundreds, if not thousands, of songs.


What kind of music do you enjoy playing most?

I really enjoy singing and strumming the fast-paced rock 'n roll songs. Although, I also really enjoy singing dance and disco songs and getting the crowd moving as well as singing ballads with feeling and emotion.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I normally arrive 90 minutes before the performance to set up. I normally perform 2 x 45 minutes.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I only perform outside if there's a performance area that has a concrete or wooden floor and a covering to protect my equipment from direct sun. I don't perform outside if it's raining or if there's any sign of possible rain.


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

I can learn specific songs before the event for the client. This is limited to up to 5 songs. I need the titles of the songs, and names of the original aritsts of these songs, at least one month before the event. Clients are welcome to pick a set list from my repertoire. My repertoire contains hundreds of songs.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe me as bringing back memories and getting the audience on their feet, as well as being in the background creating a chilled vibe when they'd like to chat.


What kind of music do you perform?

When I started doing live music gigs, I only did 1950's style rock 'n roll. Now I do many other exciting genres as well! These include pop music, country music, and soul music from the 1930's right up until the 2020's. I also do some disco music from the 1970's, Latin rock 'n roll, ballads, and Afrikaans music.
