As an independent artist I've performed at the O2 arena and played sold-out tours across the UK! My next tour will be in April 2025.
I'm a huge fan of artists like Taylor Swift, Ella Langley, Kacey Musgraves and I'm heavily influenced by the country music scene.
I've been writing songs and performing since I was 15 years old, I used to record covers for YouTube and it snowballed from there. Since then I've performed all over the country in countless venues and have been a part of so many special days for wonderful couples.
I adore playing weddings! Whether that's for the ceremony, to entertain their guests during reception drinks, accompanying their first dance - it's an honour to be a part of such an important and magical day!
I usually arrive around an hour before the booking is due to begin to set up and do a quick line check of the sound so everything is perfect. If booked for the ceremony, I usually sing 30 minutes for guests arrival, 1 aisle song, 2 songs during the registry signing & 1 exit song. I typically perform 1hr30mins for reception drinks but I'm happy to play a bit longer or shorter or tailor the performances to your day specifically, whatever that may be!
Completely happy to, as long as there is some sort of shelter option if the weather is going to be wet, to protect my equipment, or there is option for shade if the weather is very hot.
Yes, my clients can pick their ceremony songs. I have a set list I can provide to clients to take a look and choose any songs specifically that they want to hear (or not hear!). I'm also happy to add in new songs if given enough time to learn them (no later than 8 weeks before the booking date). If you are particularly interested in certain artists or a genre, I can bear this in mind when curating the set list for you and choose some songs bespoke to your day.
