Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Can supply everything


What information do you require about a venue?

Number of guests, vehicle access, parking


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I supply basic sound and stage wash lighting


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

Yes

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Flown to a 12th century castle with a moat in South of France for private event


What's your favourite type of event?

I love the challenge of corporate, the family vibe of milestone birthday and the joy and style of weddings


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

I’ve become known as Australia’s Piano Man to the Stars. I began my career at The Ritz-Carlton Double Nay where I enjoyed a 2000 night residency playing for superstars such as Punk, Foo Fighters, Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves, which led to playing private events all over Australia and destination events in Europe and Asia for A List clients.


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

My taste is as electric as the tastes of my clients. I start my events with Sinatra and Buble and often end with Mr Brightside or Don’t Stop Believing. Music is the greatest of all the artistic forces because of its unique ability to connect people in a moment, across age groups and cultural differences. The greatest song of all time is whatever song brings a group to a crescendo of shared joy on a given night and leaves them feeling lifted above their circumstances “to forget about life for a while” …

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Arrive 90 minutes to 2 hours prior to the event depending on how much equipment I need to bring. My sets are long and breaks only happen at the most appropriate times so as not to disrupt the continuity of the event. Momentum is hard to build and easily lost.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes if not in direct sun.


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

I welcome input from my clients, particularly for set piece moments like the first dance at a wedding, but apart from that, I give my clients the broad range of songs I’m likely to choose from to match the changing mood of the event and they trust me to judge those moments to perfection.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Infused with love, energy and style.


How does a piano man hold a dance floor?

I use understated rhythm tracks and play bass lines with my left hand to sound like a trio. I match the energy of the original versions and my sound system produces rich and powerful sound.
