The act
During wedding drinks, Shimon Moore can begin with acoustic guitar and singing, then move into DJ music later in the evening. His live covers draw on the eighties and nineties as well as newer songs, with a relaxed approach or more energetic playing possible. The DJ set is open format and responsive to the crowd, with requests part of the music you can discuss. A useful direction for a couple who want the evening to change from live acoustic songs into a party, with both parts considered together as you plan the celebration.

Good to know
What to expect
Live acoustic guitar and vocals, working through the songs people already know from the 80s, 90s and now. Shimon also DJs open format, which means no fixed genre and no set playlist, just reading who's on the floor and choosing accordingly. The pairing is where it gets useful. Relaxed live music while people eat and talk, then a switch across to the decks later when the night turns and the room wants volume.
On the day
He brings his own guitar, microphone, PA and DJ gear, so the venue supplies the space and a standard power outlet. Around two metres by two suits the acoustic setup, with a bit more if the DJ equipment is going in too. Flat ground, and covered. Easy load-in and parking somewhere close by makes his afternoon considerably better.
Performance options
Solo acoustic is the straightforward booking: live guitar and vocals, relaxed early and picking up the tempo after the meal or the speeches. The open format DJ set is the other, chosen around the crowd on the night and taking requests. And then there's the combined one, acoustic through the first half before it turns into a DJ set. Any of the three can flex to the length of your event and the venue you're in.
