Frequently Asked Questions
I perform for public events (restaurants, hotels, town halls, galas, festivals…) and private events (weddings, birthdays, corporate parties, inaugurations).
My music draws inspiration from soul, pop, and jazz, with a particular focus on vocals and emotion.
Influences such as Sade, Whitney Houston, and Aretha Franklin, as well as the great voices of soul, inspire my interpretations.
Depending on the chosen format:
– Duo: vocals + piano or guitar
– Trio: vocals + piano/guitar + saxophone/drums
– Full band: vocals, bass, drums, piano/guitar.
Performances typically last between 1 hour 30 minutes and 2 hours 15 minutes, depending on the chosen package and the flow of your event.
