Ben here from Manchester. I have spent the most part of my life playing live in various bands and solo projects throughout the years so I have a wealth of experience in the live music field. From initially being a bassist and fry/scream vocalist to covering songs like Adele's Rolling In The Deep I have continued to develop my abilites in order to put on the best performance that I can.
Now I am focusing on playing as a one man acoustic act playing rock and pop covers from Foo Fighters to Britney Spears! I have my own mini PA so I can be self sufficent should you not have access to a PA system.
Some of the songs are play are as follows:
Wanted Dead or Alive - Bon Jovi
Hallelujah - Jeff Buckley
Times Like These - Foo Fighters
Angels - Robbie Williams
Baby One More Time - Britney Spears
Creep - Radiohead
Stand By Me - Ben E. King
How You Remind Me - Nickelback
Zombie - The Cranberries
Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen
Rolling In The Deep - Adele
I am always expanding and adding to my set list and always happy to learn specific songs if and when required and can play 2-3 hours of live music with short breaks.

A performance space of at least 2m x 2m with at minimum one power socket within 2m of the performance area.
I can provide my own mini PA system which is two 8" speakers from a mixing desk.
Any directions that will help me find the location and details on what parking is like around or at the venue.
Yes.
Foo Fighters and Metallica are big influences of mine with 'Nothing Else Matters' by Metallica and 'Everlong' by Foo Fighters being two of the greatest songs ever written.
Since about the age of 14 I have been playing live music in a variety of cover bands, original bands and recording and releasing songs as a solo artist.
All events are fantastic to play at, but any where the guests are particularly happy and eager to sing and dance along always make the evening better.
I usually arrive 1.5 hours before the scheduled start times in order to set up and sound check. I usually perform 2 x 60 minute sets but I'm very flexible with the set times and quantity to accommodate.
So long as there is a flat surface, power supply and shade if required this is not a problem.
I can look into learning specific requests prior to the performance.
