Frequently Asked Questions

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

I have performed at The London Palladium and many theatres, restaurants, private events and weddings. Recently The Chatham 'Sticks 'n' Stones wellbeing festival and 'The horn fair' at Charlton house, London.


What's your favourite type of event?

I do love a wedding and also a private party where the guests love the 1950's vibe and often dress up and are very eager to dance.


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

I have been singing and performing since I was a child. Went to Drama school and trained as a singer. I've been working in entertainment ever since.


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

As a young boy I found Elvis tapes in the bargin bin in Woolworths. I sang along to them when I was in the bath. The whole 1950's and 60's style and energy I just love. The music makes you move around.

I like to arrive 1 hour before the performance. I can do 2 x 45 minutes or 3 x 45 minutes or any way you want to chop it up.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I'm happy to perform outside, but with a quiff, rain always stops play.

I can always learn a client requested song from the 1950's and 60's given 3-4 days notice.
