If you’ve ever come to one of my gigs and thought, “He should really add this song to the set,” good news, you don’t have to yell it across the bar anymore.
I’ve just added a Song Request section to my website where you can send me song suggestions for future gigs.
Here’s the link:

What it is (and what it isn’t)
This isn’t a “play it right now” request line. It’s for future setlists.
Think of it as you helping shape what I learn next, what I add to the repertoire, and what ends up getting played at upcoming shows. If you’ve got a song that you reckon would go off in a pub, at a party, or on a dance floor, I want to hear it.
How it works
It’s simple:
- Enter the song title and artist (they’re mandatory, because “that one that goes da da da” is hard to Google)
- Add your name if you want
- Leave a comment if you feel like it
- Hit Submit Suggestion
- I get an email with your request
No rules, but bring the bangers
There are no rules. Suggest whatever you like.
That said, if you want to maximise your chances of hearing it at a gig, aim for:
- your favourite “going out” songs
- dance floor bangers
- singalong classics
- the stuff you’d put on when the night hits its peak
Basically: if it makes people get louder, move more, or grab their mate and yell “THIS ONE,” it’s a strong candidate.
What you get if I learn it
If you leave your name and I end up learning your song, here’s the deal:
- I’ll email you to let you know I’ve learned it
- and the next time I see you at one of my gigs, you’ll get a shout out on the mic for the request
Fame, glory, and mild embarrassment, all included at no extra charge.
Why I’m doing this
I’m always adding songs and tweaking setlists depending on what crowds respond to. This just makes it easier for you to tell me what you actually want to hear, and it gives me a steady stream of fresh ideas that suit real rooms, real nights, and real people.
So if you’ve got a song that you reckon should be in the mix, send it through.

See you at a gig soon, and if I call your name out, don’t pretend you don’t know me.
