Frequently Asked Questions

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

I love playing at all kinds of events, however weddings and parties are my favourites. The relaxing easy listening setlist complements the happy atmosphere at a wedding, and the upbeat setlist never fails to get people dancing - or even singing at parties! I am always happy to hear a spontaneous "karaoke" performance - sing your hearts out!

Setup usually takes no more than 15 minutes. The usual performance consists of 2x45 minute setlists.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I am happy to play outside, providing adquate shelter is in place in case of rainfall.


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

The majority of shows consist of a set repertoire list, however I am happy, and encourage clients to request any songs, especially for weddings. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide on-the-spot requests.
