I am fully self contained with my own Bose PA and lights. I would just kindly ask for one plug socket next to the performance area, a minimum space of 2m x 2m and a parking space near to the entrance so I can load in my gear easily if possible. My PA is 2 metres in height so I would need to make sure it fits comfortably underneath the roof/gazebo (if outside)
For care homes, I have a small portable Bose speaker and can be wireless for this.
Yes, i'm completely self contained. I bring my own Bose PA system to all of my gigs as well as a bigger dynamic lighting rig for selective evening performances.
I need to know the address, any additional directions and also if there is parking.
Absolutely!
I'm happy to choose the music myself or let the client choose the music. Please just ask ☺️
The Symphony Hall - it was an incredible experience! I even had my own dressing room!
I'm a big ABBA fan!
I love all sorts of events!
It takes me around 30 minutes to set up and soundcheck. I will always arrive at least 45 minutes before the performance . For care homes I arrive around 15 minutes before.
I'm happy to play outside but I ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area
I can learn specific songs before the event (I offer to learn 1 song free of charge) The clients are welcome to to pick a set list from my repertoire or let me choose the music for them
Thoroughly enjoyable ☺️
