Good to know
What to expect
One guitarist with a stomp box and looping gear, building rhythm and layers underneath the acoustic guitar so the sound goes well past what a single player usually manages. The songs run across rock, pop, folk, blues and country, from older classics to recent favourites, and the set shifts to match whoever's in front of it. Party volume or something mellow, both are on. Behind it sit 25 years in music, including time fronting rock bands as lead singer, which is where the knack for reading a room comes from. Tess Shore works weddings, birthdays, pubs and clubs, corporate functions, family gatherings and celebrations of most kinds.
On the day
Undercover, with power available. A small stage is preferred, particularly in a busy venue where the floor fills up. Tess can bring a few coloured lighting pots for stage effects, though these are for atmosphere rather than illumination, so some other lighting will be needed as well, especially outdoors.
Insurance and paperwork
Public liability insured.
