Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I will need a guitar amp/monitor and plugs to connect my equipment.


What information do you require about a venue?

Ideally we would like to know the location of the venue, time of arrival, where and who to speak to upon arrival. Where to bring to my equipment, what equipment will be at my disposal from the venue.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

No we do not provide sound and lighting


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

No we do not offer such services

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Best gig: Worked on an EP that later had a presentation concert.
Best venue: Wedding at the lakeside


What's your favourite type of event?

My favourite events are weddings, it’s always great seeing families come together in celebration.


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

We started getting gigs while still in high school from church members and now we’ve built a network with various musicians. We’ve so far done a handful of weddings and award ceremonies and multiple studio projects


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

Musical influences would be Ferre gola and Kendrick Lamar. I have no one favourite artist nor do I rate one song as the greatest of all time

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Standard procedure is to arrive an hour or two (depending on the gig) to set up and run through set list. I perform in sets of 45 minutes but can play longer based on the event.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes definitely, all I would require is a power supply nearby and maybe a drink to sip lol.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Clients definitely have a say on what songs to play. We can always work on the set list together makes it more fun and custom to every client.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Relaxing is the most used word but when playing with a band they tend to use the word ‘energetic’


What does your typical set look like?

Imagine you sitting at your table enjoying your brunch with friends and family while there’s a guitarist playing well known songs over a loop of beats that you can sing along to.
