About / Biography

I'm a singer and acoustic guitarist, with a songlist of around 500 songs, built up over years of playing gigs and learning requests.

I'm very good at reading the room and can play songs to get people dancing and singing along, or play more background music if that is what is needed.

I've played over 1000 gigs at private events, bars and restaurants and enjoy interacting with an audience.

I look forward to being part of your next event!
