Zak Shepherd (Solo/Duo/DJ)

Polished, professional, and punctual. I like to have full transparency with my clients of what they're looking for and how I can make those visions come to fruition.

For example if you book me for your wedding I will touch base and chat via Zoom, and curate the music to your event with your taste and requests upheld with the most importance. I'll generally do 2 Zoom meetings first one with general questions as to how the day is going to run, if you can provide me with a run sheet even more amazing. What songs to play when and what not to play. Second Zoom chat is a run through of how it will go and a general summary of my notes taken in the first Zoom meeting. For all other events 1 Zoom meeting or phone call is fine.

Expect an event filled with the songs you know and love that will add to the ambience of your special day or private event. I have no problem reading the room and playing the appropriate music for any occasion.

There's nothing more that makes me smile is having everyone sing along to their favourite songs, if I am singing it myself on the guitar or I'm on the DJ decks and everyones screaming "I'm just a teenage dirtbag!!" at the top of their lungs.

I provide my own gear which includes a portable battery powered PA system that can cater for even the most remote event.

If you are planning to have your event in an open space exposed to extended periods of sunlight, I would appreciate an area of cover for myself and gear.
