A bit about me...

Your wedding is such a special and unique day, it's important you book a musician who can not only play the right music, but someone who is also the right fit as a person, someone you can trust and get along with without a hint of hassle, doubt or stress.

MUSIC IS MY PASSION

Music is more than just a job for me. Playing music has helped keep me sane in a crazy world, and the joy I am able to bring to other people through my music is something I never take for granted. A wedding is a magical occasion, and I still get a buzz each and every time I am welcomed in to be part of the day!

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING

I have been a professional wedding entertainer for the last 10 years, and it is very much my musical specialism. Beyond that, I've been a performing musician at a wide variety of events and gigs for over 20 years, playing everything from small pub gigs and community fairs to the main stage at Manchester Arena and international gigs across Europe and Dubai.  

I'M A NORMAL GUY

You won't get any ego or funny business with me, I treat people with respect and courtesy. I'm easy going and well-organised. I love to have a laugh when the time is right and can take any banter an audience sends my way, but ultimately when it comes to delivering for my customers, I'm deadly serious about doing that, every time.

I'VE GOT THE TUNES!

I've got such a broad repertoire of material, you can be assured I will keep your audience entertained and have something in my locker for all ages and tastes. I'll hit the right musical notes, for any stage of the day. I can also learn any additional special requests (see 'packages' section for more on that)

THE LEGAL BIT...

All my electrical equipment is PAT tested, I have an enhanced DBS check, and comprehensive Public Liability insurance. It's common for me to liaise directly with the venue or your wedding planner on this kind of stuff, but I know it gives some couples peace of mind upfront to know I am covered and that I care about the safety of my audience.
