I can provide a playlist of background music during setup and between sets
Touring the world with Princess Cruises was definitely a highlight, getting to play for 1000s of guests everyweek.
I am a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. However i think the greatest song of all time is Don Mclean's American Pie
I learned to play guitar 30+ years ago and spent my teens busking in Galway. Once old enough I played in local pubs and clubs and from there have played all over the world; Australia, Europe, America and more.
I like playing any event where people are eager to enjoy themselves.
I arrive 45 minutes typically before start time and it takes about 30 minutes to setup.
Sets are usually 2 x 45 mins or 3 x 45 mins but I can adjust these timings to suit the event.
Happy to perform outside, most of my equipment can run off battery power if I'm told in advance, a flat level but I ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.
I can learn a specific song before an event if two weeks notice given, I have a repetoire of 1200 to draw from so a lot of possible choices should be covered. For certain events like Weddings for example I will typically meet with the couple and discuss the general vibe of the music.
"We saw Mike playing in a Manchester bar and knew we had to have him for our Wedding reception. He chose music which kept our guests of all ages entertained all evening, cannot recommend highly enough." Paul C.
