The act
Bailey Sampson suits a couple who want one performer to connect acoustic playing with the later DJ part of their wedding. He sings with acoustic guitar and a looping station, drawing on styles from the seventies to current pop. Six years of varied events, including weddings, have taught him to read the room and adjust the music. His stated aim is to treat each occasion as its own performance and find moments that distinguish it. Watch Bailey here and enquire about joining his solo acoustic and DJ options across your day.

Good to know
What to expect
Six years of gigs, from bars to weddings, have given Bailey a decent read on a room. If the crowd isn't responding to what he's playing, he changes it while he's playing rather than finishing the set as planned. That's the difference worth paying for. It's acoustic guitar and a looping station, so one person builds up more sound than you'd expect. He treats every booking as a one off, which it is, and goes looking for the moment in your event that people will still be talking about afterwards.
On the day
A power point near where he's playing, and 30 to 60 minutes to set up and sound check before guests arrive. Build that into the run sheet and the rest looks after itself.
Performance options
Ask about the solo acoustic and DJ wedding option, which covers the live music early and the dancing later without bringing in a second supplier. There are birthday options too. A song list is available on request if you want to see what's in the repertoire before you decide.
