Show Description
Hi my names Rick. I am a professional, reliable Vocalist and Guitarist who performs the Big Pop/Rock hits.
I am originally from West Yorkshire and moved down to London to write and perform music in 2004.
My main aim at any show is to keep the crowd on their feet with songs ranging from current crowd pleaser`s Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, Jess Glynn, Olly Murs, Michael Buble to classic favourite`s by Coldplay, Oasis, The Killers, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart, Arctic Monkeys. I am always willing to learn a new song for a show. If you would like to hear a favorite played at the even
... t do let me know. I do also like to discuss the set with clients before hand to ensure the right songs are chosen and the right tone is set for your event.
I am also able to DJ at your event if required. This option will generally save you money in the long run as opposed to paying for a musician and a DJ.
Equipment Sound/PA
I would just like to add a small note in regards to equipment, which I think is a huge part of any performance. For me personally to look and sound my best, I decided I needed to have the cutting edge gear to ensure my shows are epic for the audience. For a PA, I use a Bose L1 model 2. It delivers immaculate clear sound and from my point of view is cut above all other PA systems.
Lighting
If I`m going to sound the best I better also look my best! I have recently purchased the Chauvet Freedom Stick lighting pack. Check out the link below and visualise how this would look at your event.
