A safe mains electricity supply at or close to the stage (or playing floorspace) is normally essential. However, with advance notice, a playlist can be prepared for a small battery operated PA speaker.
Sufficient space in which to play is also a must.
Other factors are negotiable but could include:
Food and drink for Kit (& his accompanist where appropriate)
Parking.
Use of premises own PA system or provision of PA.

Yes, I bring my own PA system, suitable for audiences up to about 250 (but able to operate at a modest volume for small venues/groups). I don't usually provide lighting by default for a solo performance but if you request it I can provide it.

Obviously the full address and postcode is important. The best point of access for loading in and any particular parking requirements are often helpful. Sound limiters are sometimes an issue (very rarely for solo performances). As long as I get a reasonable idea of what to expect there's rarely any issues.

Yes, I can provide my own playlists or I can play yours from an iPod, smartphone, laptop, etc.

In a musical career of over 50 years that's too hard to decide without a lot of thought! I've played almost all the leading West End hotels, the Marquee, the 100 Club, the Vortex jazz club, many great theatres including Belfast Opera House. The most exotic would probably be the Ishtar Sheraton Hotel in Baghdad but I'll have to come back to this question....

Louis Jordan. His hits from the 1940s were the basis of the musical "Five Guys Named Moe", full of fun and swinging saxophone solos. One of his best is "Choo Choo Ch'Boogie" which was a million seller in 1946. Other artists that have inspired me are Ray Charles, Louis Prima, Big Joe Turner, Slim Gaillard and Mose Allison.

I began entertaining as an infant, travelling with my mother as she performed at Darby & Joan clubs, hospitals and similar venues in the late 1950s and early 1960s. She taught me a few songs so that I could "do a turn" for her audiences. As a teenager, I sang in a rock and roll band and taught myslef to play guitar and harmonica. At art college I fronted another rock band and then began to learn the saxophone. This led on to many exciting musical experiences from Bromley to Baghdad!

Anywhere with an appreciative audience is great. Fortunately that applies to almost all my bookings. I get a special kick when one of my own songs inspires people to get up and dance, so I guess that dances would be my favourite.

I'm both! I've been singing ever since I can remember and first performed in public as an infant! I've "only" been playing the saxophone for the last 50 years but I enjoy that just as much as I do singing. Consequently you're in safe hands booking me as "just" a saxophonist or "just" a singer, although I would normally play some solo breaks or similar on sax when booked to perform vocals. However, if you don't like the saxophone, I can perform without it!

Set up time is dependent on ease of access and whether it's a solo, duo or larger booking. Less than 30 minutes in most cases. Possibly just 10 minutes!

Performance times are fully negotiable but are commonly 2 x 45 minutes or 2 x 60 minutes.

That depends! In most cases, yes, and I've often done so. However, if wet weather is occurring or predicted I'd expect a client to provide protection for myself and my equipment from rain, or an alternative location. I'd also need a power supply adjacent to the performance area.

I'm happy to liaise with my clients regarding material. I can provide a list of my usual material from which they can pick any songs or tunes they'd like to hear. Given reasonable notice I'm also prepared to add requests that I've not performed before as long as they're not completely incompatible.

One typical comment was "...classics that get your feet tapping and where you just cant help singing along." Why not check out my reviews, all of which rated me 10/10.
