Yes, I can provide "interval music" before and in between sets.
RAF St. Mawgan, Officers' Mess Summer Ball
Favourite artist is George Harrison. Greatest song? Bohemian Rhapsody.
Originally guitarist/singer as a teenager, played in many function bands over the years. Started solo singing when backing tracks were available and of high quality. I also played bass in a successful soft rock band.
I have performed folk, country, swing, pop and rock as a solo artist , performing at private events, weddings, pubs and clubs around the UK, US and Europe.
Private events - birthdays, bat/bar mitvahs, weddings. The guests always want to enjoy themselves and it's great to get them involved.
Setup around 30 minutes, including sound check. I like to be set up at least 15 minutes before performing. I normally play 2 x 45 minutes, but I am quite happy to entertain other set durations.
Outside performances are fine provided there is shelter (gazebo, marquee etc) , power supply, and a relatively flat performance area.
I can learn specific songs if given sufficient notice (normally at least 14 days).
Otherwise I generally prepare a set list according to the information given by client.
Clients would describe me as having relaxing style that draws audiences in, and gauges the mood so he can change the pace and variety.
3x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minutes
