YOUR SONG
When playing solo all I need is the space of a coffee table and a socket!
I can provide a compact but efficient PA (sound system) for live music.
Mainly its postcode and if there are parking spaces or restrictions.
No, I'm not good at that, sorry.
Playing the piano live on BBC2 TV on 'Later with Jools Holland' with the son of legendary Muddy Waters, Jools Holland himself joining on the Hammond organ and while Brian Ferry and Sinead O'Connor were watching us.
The Beatles, Ray Charles, Elton John, Elvis Presley, Eric Clapton and Jerry Lee Lewis, just to mention six.
My favourite, single artist of all time might be Paul McCartney.
'Hey Jude' is for me probably the greatest song ever recorded.
My first paid gig was at a camping site in Sardinia, Italy while on holiday as a Uni student in the early 1990s.
Then lots of pubs, bars, restaurants and parties between Rome and Milan, but always as a hobby and playing American and English songs. Since moving to London in 2003 music has become a full-time job, gigging non stop.
Probably now my favourite type of event is either a relaxed cocktail bar or a private function where you start being kind of background and gradually hold the audience in the palm of your hand and leave them begging for more!
I/we normally arrive at least one hour before showtime. I'm flexible with performance times but the usual 45' sets with 15' breaks work fine. Usually it's two of those at most venues but can be up to three or even four sometime at private dos or busy piano bars on weekends.
Sure, provided it's a safe and comfortable environment and weather.
I'm always happy to take requests of songs that I know. Less happy if I don't know them! I'm also willing to learn one or two new songs for special events if required.
I've always had very good words about my performances or my band's from either the venues' managers or private clients. I can proudly say that I'm always among the most booked performers at all the London venues I play regularly and would be happy to share their contacts if you fancy checking yourself.
