Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Nothing but a single power outlet, everything else is provided!


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, we’re completely self contained. We bring our own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a simple lighting rig.


What information do you require about a venue?

Any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in our equipment.
Is there parking on site?
Is there a sound limiter in the venue?


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, we’re happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. We’re happy to choose the music ourselves or let the client choose the music.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Most of the best gigs I've played have been because of the people. That said, playing music for whilst watching the sun set over the hills in Tuscany is a particularly fond memory of mine.


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

My first experience of gigging was playing small clubs fronting an original punk band. I went to study music after that and I've been performing ever since in all sorts of bands or solo. Turning my amp up really loud and belting out a few power chords is still a guilty pleasure of mine.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

30 minutes set up time


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yep, happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface and a power supply close to the performance area.


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

We can learn specific songs before the event but we usually limit this a couple of songs. The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

"did a fantastic job of getting everyones feet tapping. Would highly recommend!"
"fantastic performer! A brilliant song library and great vibes"
"What a performance, he turned up and was so polite, played his heart out and absolutely smashed the cover we requested for our first dance which was probably very different from his usual requests"
