Based in Dukinfield, Cheshire
I require a suitable performance space with enough room for me, my speaker system and guitar. This needs to be close to a plug socket. I also require a parking space with easy access to the venue.
I provide a PA system for my sound but no lighting equipment.

I had an amazing experience performing at the Orange County Convention Centre in Orlando, Florida on the same line up as Sting, Adam Levine and Ne-Yo!
My favourite era of music is the 70s, I have been influenced musically by Joni Mitchell, Fleetwood Mac and Carol King. I also love Tracy Chapman, First Aid Kit, Kate Bush and many more.
I have been performing professionally for the past years after gaining a degree in Musical Theatre. Since graduating I have worked hard at securing gigs in the UK and beyond. I have spent time teaching music in the USA and the UK and travel the world performing on cruises such as Celebrity Cruises and Viking Cruises.
I am passionate about creating music and have released CDs of my original work physically and on streaming services.
Intimate concerts where I can share my original songs and tell stories is my ideal gig but I also love to perform at weddings - especially ceremonies and drinks receptions.
My set up isn't too complicated so 30-60minutes is usually enough time for me to get set up, depending on the logistics of the venue/event. I usually perform for 2 x 45 minutes with a short break in between sets as this seems to work best for most events, however I work with the client to find the perfect timings.
Yes, however I need to be in a shaded/sheltered area close to power supply and I also need a flat level surface to perform on.
After years of working in the business I have the skills to read the room and adjust my set list on the go, to suit the mood. However, I am always happy to take requests and clients are welcome to send ideas of favourite songs/artists ahead of the date and I will always do my best to include them in the set if possible.
A highlight of the event.
