Setlist
I have a broad setlist featuring music from each decade and plenty of genres. I have experience in many different kinds of events, and so I'm happy to tailor my setlist to the night. However, no one knows your crowd as well as you do! So should you wish to choose the setlist from the full list of songs on my profile, I'm more than happy to accommodate.
I'm also able to learn songs upon request (for example for first dances), please refer to the booking options for fees and details. I pride myself on being a successful and talented musician, and I'm sure I can learn anything you throw my way!

Do you want live music for your wedding ceremony? Craft your perfect wedding ceremony with songs from my setlist, or request your own songs. I can provide music fro while your guests take their seats, the bridal entrance, the signing of the register, and finally your exit as a new married couple!
lease note that song requests that I need to learn have an extra cost (see booking options).
I can also provide live music for your first dance, many of the popular first dance songs that I know are on my setlist, and many more are available on request! I'm also happy to learn a song for your first dance, should your choice not be in the list!
