Song list

SWING

A beautiful friendship

Ain't misbehavin

A kiss to build a dream on

A sailboat in the moonlight

After you’ve gone

All of me

All or nothing at all

All the things you are

Almost like being in love

A tisket a tasket

At last

At Your Mothers House

Autumn leaves

Beautiful love

Blue skies

But not for me

Bye bye blackbird

Cheek to cheek

Come fly with me

Comes love

Dance me to the end of love

Day in day out

Deed i do

Del Sasser

Don't get around much anymore

Don't know why

Do nothin till you hear from me

Dream a little dream

Everybody loves my baby

Everything i've got belongs to you

Exactly like you

Feelin good

Fever

Fly me to the moon

Frim fram sauce

Give him the ooh la la

Hang on little tomato

Have you met miss Jones

Honeysuckle rose

How high the moon

I've got my love to keep me warm

I betcha nickel

I can’t give you anything but love

I could write a book

I didn't know what time it was

If i were a bell

Im beginning to the see the light

Im old fashioned

In a mellow tone

Isn't it a lovely day

It's only a paper moon

It could happen to you

It had to be you

I wish you love

I won't dance

I’ll be seeing you

I’ll see you in my dreams

I’ve got you under my skin

Just a gigolo

Just friends

Just you, Just me

la vie en rose

Laundromat swing

Lets do it

Lets fall in love

LOVE

Lucky old sun

Lullaby of Birdland

Mean to me

Moondance

My baby just cares for me

My blue heaven

No greater love

Oh! Look at me now

Our love is here to stay

Pennies from heaven

Summertime

Sunny side of the street

Take the a train

Taint nobody’s business if i do

Tea for two

Teach me tonight

The coffee song

There will never be another you

The Look of Love

The way you look tonight

They can't take that away

They say it's spring

Thou swell

Til there was you

Time after time

Undecided

What a little moonlight can do

What a wonderful world

What is this thing called love

When you’re smiling

Where or when

Wish i knew how it feels to be free

You for me (Haymes)

You make me feel so young

The masquerade is over

The nearness of you

The very thought of you

These foolish things

Try your wings (McGregor)

Unforgettable

What a difference a day made

What a little moonlight can do

What is this thing called love

Wish I knew

You don’t know what love is

Younger than Springtime

BLUES +

Black sheep blues

Cry to me

Do I move you

5 Months, 2 Weeks, 2 Days

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I require access to power at a maximum of 20 feet away from performance area, and if we are playing outside, we would need shade and a policy to move indoors if there is rain.


What information do you require about a venue?

I would need to know if we are desired to play inside or outside, if we are playing somewhere with stairs and no elevator access, and if there is parking available.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I can provide professional sound including 1-2 Electro Voice ZLX-12P PA speakers to cover the area seamlessly. I can provide two basic floor LED lights if requested for an additional fee.


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

I am happy to play music from Spotify before, after and between our sets. I can choose the music myself or let the client choose the music.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

My favorite venue to play at is Lou Lou's inside the Lafayette in San Diego, as seen in my featured photos. Gorgeous venue with a crowd that's ready to dance!


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing weddings -- it is an honor to be a part of such an intimate and memorable moment in people's lives, and so fun to curate a setlist that feels like the soundtrack to their love story.


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

I grew up singing in church and was connected to the jazz scene through another musician in the church. Since then I have played over 1000 events in San Diego, including dozens of weddings and other private events, and even some fly-outs!


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

My vocal approach is influenced by my favorite singers like Norah Jones, Adele, Chris Stapleton, YEBBA and Rachael Price. My answer to the "Greatest Song of All Time" would change day-to-day, but if you asked me today, I might answer, "Soledad y Mar" by Natalia Lafourcade.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Depending on the size of band, we may arrive 1-2 hours beforehand to set up. We can play up to 5 x 45 minute sets comfortably with 15 minute breaks in between.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I'm happy to play outside but require shade, a flat level surface and a power supply within 20 feet of the performance area.


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

Clients can request certain genres, artists and even specific songs, though if we don't know them already we may only be able to learn a few without additional charges. Otherwise, we are happy to choose the setlist as we see fit to the occasion, audience, venue and overall vibe!


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients would describe me as flexible and attentive to preferences -- conversational level volume to set an upscale tone when requested, but also high-energy music to get the dance floor packed, and sometimes both (eg. cocktail hour into wedding reception)!
