I require access to power (2x 13AMP sockets is preferred)
Yes, I'm fully self sufficient. I provide a state of the art PA system (either 500w, 1000w or 2000w depending on the venue) as well as ambient uplighting and atmosphere.
I need to know parking, load in times, whether the venue has an in house sound system, size of performance area. I'd also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue.
Yes, there will always be music going on! I have a range of playlists before, during the break(s) and whilst I'm packing my equipment away.
Best gig (and sort of venue) I’ve played was on the back of a super-yacht in Monaco during the 2023 Formula 1!
Hugely influenced by the creativity of boys artists like BB King, modern musicians like Ed Sheeran and John Mayer as well as bands like The Eagles and The Beatles.
I’ve played instruments since I was around 8 years old. I’ve played in around 9 or 10 bands, and played solo and duo acoustic acts for 3+ years now. I’m a former Academy of Contemporary music alumni, grade 8 drummer, qualified sound engineer and trained vocalist. I’ve played guitar for about 20 years and have performed at well over 200 gigs
I love playing at all sort of events. But particularly I love the intimacy of weddings, I love private events where people really want to be involved and you can make a real difference to their day
Set up times take up to 45 mins. I’ll arrive around 1 hour before.
Performance times vary depending on the client, but on average I’ll do either 2 x 45 or 2 x 50 min sets.
Yes, however I’ll require adequate cover from the rain. I have some contingency in place but due to the electrical equipment I have there will need to be adequate shelter.
I can learn specific songs with minimum 2 weeks notice, however I find the performance is best if I stick to what I know. Someone’s I’ll take requests during the event if it’s something I’m familiar with
Previous clients have said things like “high energy”, “engaging” and “everyone has said how great it was”
