For most performances, I require a quality sound system appropriate for the size of the room, one working wireless or wired handheld microphone, and clear stage lighting.

A raised stage is preferred but not required, as long as there is a designated performance area with good visibility for the audience.

For larger events, the venue should provide adequate speakers, a mixer, and a sound technician or someone familiar with the sound system.

Please make sure the performance area is free from heavy foot traffic and distractions during the set.

I am flexible and can work with most venue setups. If your event has limited sound or staging, please let me know in advance so we can determine the best setup for the performance.
