Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever played at?

I recently played at the southbank centre with a 6 piece band, incredible energy and an amazing opportunity to play at an awesome venue!


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

One of my all time favourites would be Paul Simon, I'm a huge fan of his songs and his lyrics. They always tell a great story, which inspires me to create music around my own experiences.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started gigging at age 18, i was extremely nervous to perform three songs at my local open mic. I barely got through it after forgetting half the lyrics to the second song, but we've all got to start somewhere. I'm now 28 and have performed countless amount gigs throughout the uk and even some in europe, building a stronger and more confident performance every step of the way.! from solo acoustic gigs to wedding full bands.


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

Weddings and festivals have to be the best ones for me.

I will arrive 45 mins before the performance, and normally perform 2 x 45min or 2x 60 min sets


Are you happy to perform outside?

I would be happy to play outside but i ask for shade, and cover for the area with a power supply near the performance area.


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

I have a set repertoire, but i can modify the set and possible learn new songs before gigs with enough warning.

A song in there for everyone with high energy.
