I am a professional musician who has performed at some very special venues including Wembley, NEC, SEC, and all the major venues across the UK.
Biggest influence would be John Lennon. I couldn't choose a favourite artist or a favourite song as this changes each week.
I started gigging when I was 14, so quite a lot of experience.
I love private events such as private house parties, but as a keen golfer, I also love doing golf events.
Very little. I can comfortably work in a square metre if necessary. However, 2msq is about right.
All performance times are arranged to suit your event. From a one hour set to any variation such as 2 x 45 minute sets, 2 x 1-hour sets. I can arrange a less imposing background set to create a pleasant atmosphere for arrivals, deliver a full-on party dance set or provide a mix of both.
Yes, nor problem. Take a look at some of my photos!!!
Yes. My set is highly influenced by the client.
People often say how much fun the event was and respecting their wishes. If a quite set is required during dinner, that's fine. If a party is what you're after, that's what I do best. I often do both at the same gig!
Ged has performed for families, Lords and Ladies, Premier League professional footballers, corporate brand names, golf dinners for captains and lady captains, exclusive private events, charities and fundraisers. Whatever your background, personality or business, you will always receive the utmost respect and effort.
Many of my events are in people's private space. Therefore, I get to play everywhere, from the most noble of citizens mansions, to people's living rooms in big estates. Take a look at my photos!
I also play many of the big hotel names for weddings and corporate events.
I have also performed at some ski resorts around the world, in Switzerland, France, Norway, and Canada.
