The act
Contemporary folk blends with country, pop and blues in Tayvin Martins's performances, where guitar, vocals, harmonica and percussion create a one man band sound. Songs associated with Mumford & Sons, Ziggy Alberts and the Lumineers appear in sets that can be chilled and acoustic or more upbeat. His experience includes weddings and other gatherings around Wollongong and beyond, with performances tailored to the occasion. For your wedding, his ceremony offering includes learning three chosen songs for the aisle walk, signing and exit, with pre ceremony music and reception background sets available in the same package.

Good to know
What to expect
One person, four instruments going at once. Tayvin Martins plays guitar, sings, works a harmonica and keeps percussion going underneath, which gives a solo set more body than you'd expect. The sound sits in contemporary folk with country, pop and blues in the mix, and it can stay chilled through a long lunch or lift for a party. You'll hear Mumford & Sons, Ziggy Alberts and The Lumineers alongside plenty of others. He's played wineries, pubs, restaurants and weddings around the Illawarra, among them Bundanon Art Museum, Artemis Wines, Steamers Bar and Grill, and Five Barrel Brewing.
On the day
Somewhere to set up, power, and an undercover spot if the weather looks like turning. He owns all of his equipment and drives himself to gigs, so there's no hire gear to coordinate and no transport for you to think about. Point him at a corner and he'll take care of the rest.
Performance options
For general events, up to four hours of live background music, played as two to four sets of forty five minutes. For weddings there's a version that covers pre-ceremony music while you and your guests arrive, three songs he learns specifically for the aisle walk, the signing and the exit, then two or three forty five minute sets through the reception.
