More than two decades on European stages preceded his move from Milan to Sydney. For your wedding, he can create a mellow atmosphere or shift into a party set using covers and original music. Watch Erik here and decide whether his mixture of reinvention, broad references and live layers belongs in your day.

Pop and rock is the home ground, with originals in the mix too. The range is wide: Louis Prima at one end, Metallica and Guns N' Roses at the other, with Suzanne Vega, Miley Cyrus and the Eurythmics somewhere in the middle. It's all built from guitars, voice and a looper, which is what lets one person sound bigger than one person. And the mood is yours to pick. Mellow works for a dinner or a canape hour. Push it the other way and it turns into a party set.
Everything needed comes along, including a battery amp, so a venue with no power isn't a dealbreaker. Just flag it when you enquire, because whether there's a wall socket changes what gets packed.
The list keeps growing, but here's the shape of it. Rock sits heavy: One, Everlong, Plush, Otherside, Californication, Losing My Religion, About a Girl, Polly, Jeremy, 1979, Bed of Roses, You Give Love a Bad Name, TNT, Roxanne, Lonely Boy. Radiohead gets a good run with Creep, Street Spirit, High and Dry and Fake Plastic Trees, and there's Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger from Oasis. The gentler side brings Ain't No Sunshine, Nothing Compares 2 U, Wild World, Shape of My Heart, Englishman in New York, Falling Slowly and Something. Then the ones that shift a floor: Tainted Love, I Will Survive, Toxic, Wannabe, Save Tonight, Seven Nation Army, Royals, Flowers, This Love, The Best and Die With a Smile. Tom Petty turns up more than once, with Learning to Fly, Breakdown, Into the Great Wide Open and Running Down a Dream.
The booking is a soloist, and it travels well across the sorts of nights that need one: birthdays, engagement parties, corporate functions and regular venue work in pubs and bars.
