Yes, I'm completely self contained. I bring my own PA system to all of our gigs as well as a compact lighting rig.
I need to know any directions that will help us find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment and park. I also need to be informed if there’s a sound limiter in the venue
Yes, I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between my sets. I'm happy to choose the music or let the client choose the music
I performed with my band for Robert Downey Jnr's 53rd Birthday! That was an amazing gig. I have played at Download festival 5 times, we once we're next door to Lemmy from Motörhead's dressing room!
My favourite singers are all from the 80s, Jon Bon Jovi probably my favourite!
I have been a gigging musician since the age of 16 (now 34) starting in originals bands. My first band was with Sam Ryder! We released 2 albums and toured the UK and Europe. I then moved onto a few other bands before starting on the wedding and covers circuit over 10 years ago.
Weddings! There's such a great atmosphere with everyone ready to have a great time and celebrate the special couple!
