About

Acoustic or electric guitar, your call. Completely self contained on gear, needs a power point and an hour before the music starts. Public liability insurance and a paid Working With Children Check.

The show
Ten years and more of gigging around Sydney bars and restaurants, plus weddings, corporate nights and private parties. Daniel plays up to three 45 minute sets of covers, and if you want a couple of his own songs in there, that's an option. He'll sing over acoustic or electric guitar, whichever suits the room better, and it's your call which one. The setup is entirely self contained, so all the equipment arrives with him.
On the day
A power point, and an hour before the music starts to get everything ready. That's the whole ask. He's completely self contained otherwise, bringing his own equipment along with either the acoustic or the electric guitar, so there's nothing for the venue to organise on his behalf.
Performance options
The length of the booking is the thing to decide. A single half hour spot works where music is a small part of a bigger night. From there it steps up to one longer block of about 50 minutes, then two of those, then the full three sets of 45 minutes that most function bookings end up wanting. All are the same solo guitar and vocal set, so it is a question of how much of your night you want covered. Sydney is home turf, and he quotes on anything beyond it once he knows the date, the venue and the timings.
