I have a varied repertoire of chart hits, traditional folk fiddle, well-known classical favourites, plus some bonus jazz numbers and Disney songs. I can tailor my set list according to your preferences, and can usually accommodate specific song requests if you have one or two favourites that aren’t already on my list.
Links to my full song lists can be found below, but if the song you want isn’t listed you can always request it!
Chart Hits
I have a wide selection of pop repertoire, so you can tailor the music to your own style. They all have backing tracks – some are beautiful piano backings, perfect for romantic ceremonies, and others are more like the original recording, with the full band. I’m happy to advise if you want some suggestions for your ceremony. If I’m playing for an hour or more I recommend that you give me some suggestions of artists you like so that I can choose a full set list of suitable songs.

Classical Repertoire
Classical violin music can lend an air of sophistication to any event. I have tailor-made piano backing tracks for all of my classical repertoire, although if you’d prefer a simpler sound some of my pieces can be adapted to work unaccompanied.

Folk Repertoire
My traditional folk repertoire is perfect for rustic outdoor weddings! I play a mixture of lively and gentle tunes from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The energetic sound of the solo fiddle creates an upbeat atmosphere to entertain your guests as they arrive or enjoy the drinks reception. If there’s a particular song or tune that you’d like me to include, or a region you’d like me to focus on (e.g. if you’ll have Irish family in attendance), please let me know. You can listen to more examples here.
Dinkey’s (trad. Irish reel)
Da Unst Bridal March (trad. Shetland processional)

Hela’r Sgwarnog / Hunt The Hare (trad. Welsh polka)

Disney Songs
I don’t include my Disney repertoire in my set list by default, but let me know if you’d like me to include some Disney songs and I’ll be excited to play them!
