Client shall provide electrical outlets sufficient to power the equipment within 25 feet of the performance area.
I need to know any directions that will help me find the venue and find the right place to load in my equipment
Yes, I am completely self-contained. I also bring my own PA system and a simple lighting rig.
Yes, I'm happy to play music between my sets.
The best gig Ive ever done was the Umbria Jazz Festival in Perugia……twice!
I love playing at all kinds of events, but I especially enjoy weddings. It brings me joy to see the expressions on the bride and groom's faces, as well as the delight of the guests. Knowing that I contributed to a moment that will be cherished for a lifetime is truly rewarding.
I began playing in local bands and later progressed to private events, weddings, and corporate gigs.
I draw immense inspiration from Boney James and his captivating smooth sounds. Michael Brecker has undoubtedly influenced my technique with his exceptional skills, while Grover Washington's soulful grooves resonate deeply with me.
I usually arrive 1 hour before the performance to set up. I normally perform 2 x 45 minutes sets.
I am happy to play outside but we ask for shade, a flat level surface, and a power supply close to the performance area.
The clients are welcome to pick a set list from our repertoire or let us choose the music for them.
Customers have described the music as just the right vibe!!
