About / Biography

I'm Sophie May and based in Dorset. I'm a singer songwriter and cover singer, singing a variety of songs from up-to-date pop music to older music from the 60s. I enjoy performing at weddings, private and public events and occassions.

I trained as a dancer since of the age of 3 and then later went on to train as a singer from the age of 12, completing exams to grade 8 and currently working on my singing diploma to provide teaching. I am gigging in my spare time because of my love for singing, alonside working in retail full time currently.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I would only need a space to fit myself, mic stand and PA system. I would require at least 1 power socket and 1 parking space.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes, I will bring my own PA system to all events.


What information do you require about a venue?

I would like to know if there's any additional directions to help find my way and where to unload the car if possible.


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

I am happy to play an appropriate playlist of songs between and after sets. I'm happy to select the music or let the client choose.


Can you perform without/with electrics?

I can perform with or without, if electric is not permitted. However, would be preferred with electrics.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

I would say my favourite event would be my most recent wedding in Dorchester. I absolutely loved the atmosphere at this particular wedding and seeing all the guests so happy. Singing the bride down the aisle and during the ceremony was so special.


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

My most aspiring artists are Olivia Rodrigo and Billie Eilish as I love to learn up to date pop songs. On the other hand, Etta James is also a favourite of mine because I love singing older songs but giving them a modern touch.


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

I started singing at open mics and finding contacts and venues through word of mouth. Since then I have been gigging for private functions, wedding and local public events for occasions, alongside working in Retail full time currently.


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

I love playing at all sorts of events but I would say my favourite event would include party events for special occasions like weddings or birthdays and singing to a crowd that wants to get involved and sing along.


Can the client choose song requests?

Of course! I can learn up to 5 song requests per event.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I normally arrive an hour before the performance. To set up, it takes about 20 minutes including a sound check. I normally perform 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minute sets. For weddings, this may vary: wedding ceremony (60 minutes) or reception drinks/evening which can vary in time depending on the client and venue.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I am more than happy to play outside but I just ask for 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?

Usually I will send the client a set list and they can choose from that list or I am willing to adapt my set list for the client/occasion. More than happy to learn any specific songs.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous customers would describe me as professional and with a lovely voice.
