At least 2 plug sockets available within 10 meters of the stage. Parking close to a loading area.
Yes, I will bring my own PA system and have small lighting set up if required too.
I need to know where to unload and park, where I will be performing, and who best to contact on the day.
Yes I am happy to pull together Spotify playlists and play in before, in between, and after sets.
Best gig I've performed was at a 600 year old Tudor House - amazingly beautiful.
My biggest influence is probably a singer/ songwriter called Scott Matthews. But the best band of all time has to be Led Zeppelin - incredible and so much variety to their music. My favourite song of theirs is "Since I've Been Loving You".
I started singing when I was a teenager and picked up a guitar whilst at University. I have been performing by myself or in bands ever since - for nearly 20 years.
I love playing at weddings - they are such beautiful and personal occasions, it's always such a pleasure.
My usual set up time for larger venues and events is about 1 hour, and for smaller gigs I can be ready within 30 minutes. As soon as my PA is set up I can provide a free playlist service to help set the atmosphere and get your guests ready for the live performance.
Yes no problem performing outside as long as there is a power supply close by, and cover for when it rains.
Included in my fee I will learn one song. Otherwise my repertoire is extensive so should give clients plenty to choose from.
Excellent variety and repertoire, and beautiful singer.
