He formed the funk fusion quartet, The Bad Hands  in 2011 and has been working with singer  Tracey Kelly  in a pop jazz duo since 2009; their recent single has received outstanding reviews and national radio play (BBC Radio 2). As a solo guitarist, he has played at numerous venues including Claridges Hotel, The Dorchester, Grosvenor House, Sloane Street By Gordon Ramsay, Soho House, Hilton Hotels, Warwick Castle, Glastonbury Abbey, Pizza Express and Berkeley Castle.
 

Any special event can be catered for with weddings and anniversaries a specialty. For such a unique day, you want to be confident you are securing the services of a professional who can fulfill all your musical requirements. In particular, rather than play music that is solely derived from standard classical guitar material, Jason has spent considerable time cultivating a breadth of musical styles.

 A typical wedding guitarist booking scenario can involve music before the vows, drinks afterwards and/or the breakfast (ie dinner after the wedding). This can be altered depending on your requirements. Music for walking down the isle is a specialty – among pieces requested have been Estudio 5 in B minor (Fernando Sor), The Godfather love theme (Nino Rota), It Had To Be You (Sinatra, Streisand, Harry Connick Jr) and Everything I Do (Bryan Adams). For a wedding that requires an electric classical guitar, formal attire and playing for two hours fees start at £400.

This can increase depending on the distance traveled and length of time required to play.
