Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
Nick's enthusiasm and energy coupled with a varied and interesting setlist, of course! It's worth mentioning that Nick's punctuality and professionalism helps to keep any stress surrounding the entertainment at your event to an absolute minimum!
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
Gosh, all over. The most memorable would be on the beach in Cancun (Mexico) for Club Med hotels, Last Night Of The Proms in Hyde Park 2019 (nuts amount of energy) and I always love playing at Cheltenham Jazz/Music festival!
That said, sweaty, high-energy gigs/weddings are always a joy to play!
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
I always find this difficult to answer truthfully because, like most musicians, there are so many influences from artists, specific songs, even specific solos and particularly inspiring teachers or bandmates. I think I'd probably settle on Gordon Goodwin and Eric Marienthal if I had to choose though!
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
Probably Last Night Of The Proms 2019 along with Rock Choir UK.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
Nick is very flexible and willing to accommodate any surprises that might raise their heads on the day! The only consideration might be if there is another gig booked that day but Nick will do his utmost to make sure everything runs smoothly for you.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
Of course! People always ask for it so Nick plays music as standard in between sets. However, if you would like music after the sax set is finished then there is an additional fee.``
How much time do you need to set up?
Nick need at least 30 minutes but Nick normally tries to be set up and ready to go before the guests enter the performance area. The time I would aim to arrive and begin set up really depends on the layout and set up of the day but, rest-assure, Nick will make sure that the music aspect has no stress for you attached to it!
Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?
Yes, within reason. Whilst every party and wedding is different, there are certain tunes that appeal to everyone - Nick is keen to give you as a bespoke service as possible but with an eye to making your event the best possible!
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
Yes, Nick only need a power socket fairly close by, he will bring his own extension cables.
Can you learn song requests before the event?
Of course! Sourcing backing tracks and working out arrangements does require time though so Nick would require warning to sort these out.
