Except for the smallest of groups (20 or less) I will require a wireless microphone, sound system, and a well lit performance area. I will also need to plug in sound at 1/8th inch or 1/4 inch.

All of the music I use has had the copyright paid. It was written by my friend, Grammy Award winner ARTHUR Stead. You do not need to add extra expense for SOCAN or ReSound fees.

I can supply a small sound system, wireless headset microphone, and backdrops at an additional fee.
