About / Biography

With nearly 30 years experience as a professional musician and over 10 years working as a soloist, I play unobtrusive background music at an appropriate volume that enhances any occasion and creates an atmosphere of sophisticated elegance that you and your guests will love.

My extensive experience brings professionalism and reliability to every booking and my portable unplugged set-up means I'm completely flexible with where I can play. Without that need for a power supply it means barns, beaches and boats are all accessible for me.

Playing along to piano backing tracks that have been specifically recorded for me adds to the unique ambience of your event and my diverse repertoire allows me to cater for all tastes and preferences.

Pop, swing, jazz and film tunes are all covered and we'll collaborate closely to curate a playlist that perfectly aligns with the feel of your celebration, providing a seamless and enchanting musical experience that lives long in the memory.

My repertoire covers every decade of pop music from the 1950s to the present day so you'll hear well-known tunes from a diverse range of performers - The Beatles to Bon Jovi, Elvis to Elbow, Whitney to Westlife.

​For those gentler moments, enjoy laid-back tunes from artists such as Adele, John Legend, The Carpenters, Joni Mitchell, Lewis Capaldi, Elton John and Billy Joel.

​From the Great American Songbook, I play swing and jazz tunes made famous by the likes of Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone.

​Iconic sax solos feature too so listen out for my versions of 'Baker Street', 'Careless Whisper', 'Tequila', 'Take 5' and 'The Pink Panther Theme' whilst tunes from classic Disney films such as 'The Jungle Book', 'Toy Story', 'The Lion King' and 'The Little Mermaid' help to span the generations.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I just need a 1m x 1m space to play from and as my speaker runs off its own battery, I'm free to play in any location without the need for an electricity supply.


What information do you require about a venue?

Who to ask for when I first arrive will be perfect.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I provide my own speaker to play my backing track through but it's not a P.A. that can be used for announcements etc. As most of the gigs I play at will be daytime, I don't supply a lighting rig.


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

My small speaker can only run a gentle playlist in between my sets but I'm more than happy for that to be used.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

The best gigs I've done are where I can feel my music making a difference to the atmosphere.


What's your favourite type of event?

Any kind of gathering where people have come together to enjoy each other's company.


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

I've been a Freelance Musician since 1996 and set up on my own in 2013 to provide people with high quality background music.


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

Too many to mention!

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

It takes me around 10 minutes to set up so I'll arrive 30 minutes before I'm due to start playing.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Absolutely! As my speaker runs off its own internal battery, I can play anywhere as I don't need a power supply.


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

Of course, I'm more than happy for the client to make suggestions or choose the music I play in advance from my playlist.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

'Unobtrusive' 'Creates a perfect atmosphere' 'Amazing range of songs'


Will your music be too loud?

Not at all, I pride myself on always playing at an appropriate volume for the occasion and the venue.
