Repertoire
These are 222 songs I love singing. They are examples rather than a limit, so if the song that matters most to you is not here, ask. Requests are welcome and I will learn a song in time for the day.
For the ceremony, the drinks and the wedding breakfast.
Softer, slower, and pitched to sit under conversation rather than over it. Your guests should be able to talk to the person next to them without raising their voice, and still notice when a song they love starts. Plenty of it is familiar, some of it is quieter than the original, and requests are welcome.
For the turnaround and the party before the DJ starts.
Louder, faster, and built to get people out of their chairs. Same guitar, same voice, more of both. This is the set where the looping earns its keep, because one person needs to sound like a band at eleven o'clock at night.
Example sets
Nothing here is fixed. These are the sorts of running orders that work, and yours is built with you on the planning call.
23 songs, as an example of the shape of a set.
16 songs, as an example of the shape of a set.
The full list
Search it, or print it and go through it with a pen. Songs I have learned for one couple usually stay in for the next one, so this list keeps growing.
222 songs
The songs change with the room, so it is worth reading which set goes with which part of your day.
Recently recorded
Eleven of these are recorded and up on my SoundCloud, so you do not have to take my word for how they sound with one guitar and one voice.
Requests
Almost every wedding I play has at least one song in it that I did not know six weeks earlier. Send me the songs that matter and I will tell you honestly which ones work for one guitar and one voice, and which ones will sound thin however hard I try.
Your first dance is a separate thing. That one I arrange properly, at a length you can actually dance to, and I can send you an mp3 sample so you know how it will sound before the day.
Availability
Send me the date and the songs you already know you want. I'll come back within 24 hours.
