Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

An adequate and safe regulated power supply
Sufficient space for a solo performer to set up and perform safely (min. “stage” size = 8ft x 8ft).
Clear access for heavy equipment to and from the stage area.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I use two compact Stagepas 200 speakers - one is battery-powered, making it ideal for outdoor setups. I also have a larger Stagepas 1K mkII when extra volume is needed.

For wedding package bookings that involve moving between spaces, I offer a dual speaker setup to ensure a smooth transition between rooms without too much interruption to the music.


What information do you require about a venue?

I need information on where I can stop to unload my equipment and park.


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

I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, between and after my sets. The client is welcome to choose their own playlist with reasonable notice.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Playing my original music with a 7 piece band felt the most special!


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

I am influenced by lots of different artists but highlights would include Hayley Williams of Paramore for her infectious energy as a performer, Alanis Morisette for the way she uses her voice, and Bon Iver or Phoebe Bridgers for getting the deepest emotions across just through music.


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

I learned to perform by playing at open mics every week over the course of a year when I was 19. I became a full-time performing musician in 2018 and have since played hundreds of events across the UK!


What's your favourite type of event to play at?

I always love a fun party gig, but I think I might love playing weddings the most as they feel the most rewarding to play knowing you're part of a couple's most special day.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Arrival: 45 minutes before the performance (1-2 hours before for weddings)
Setup/pack down: 30 minutes


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, I'm happy to play outside but I ask for shade, a flat level surface and a source of power close to the performance area.


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

Absolutely! You are very welcome to have input, and there’s flexibility in how we approach the song choices. Some like to pick out a few favourites, others prefer to share general direction (like favourite artists or genres), and some are happy to leave it entirely to me. Whatever works best for you!

As for songs not currently in my repertoire, I’m happy to learn up to two new ones free of charge with at least 30 days’ notice. Additional requests are possible too, with a small fee to cover rehearsal time.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers have commended me on my ability to read the room and get the crowd dancing and singing along. For more relaxed gigs, I've been described as creating a perfect atmosphere for intimate moments (throughout wedding ceremonies for example).


Can we request a song that isn't in your repertoire?

You are welcome to pick all the songs from my repertoire list, I do typically suggest you pick your absolute favourites and I can tailor the rest of my set based on your preferred style, which leaves me flexibility to read the room and select songs on the spot based on my extensive experience. I also offer an “Acoustic Jukebox” service, which gives your guests the option to place song requests based on a tailored setlist throughout your event. As for songs not included in my repertoire, I can learn up to three new songs not included in my setlist free of charge, provided I receive at least 30 days' notice. Additional song requests will incur a £30 fee to cover rehearsal time.


How much time do you need to set up?

I need about 30 minutes to set up. However, I usually arrive about an hour in advance (sometimes more for weddings) to ensure I have ample time to get familiar with the venue.
