FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A duo starts at $800 and a trio at $1,200, covering up to two hours of performance. Additional hours are available. What moves the final number is drive time to your venue, whether you need me to bring sound equipment, standby time at events where I arrive well before I play, and custom songs you'd like me to learn. Once I know the details I'll give you a clear quote up front, so there are no surprises later.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I'll ask a few questions first so I can quote accurately: - Date, venue, guest count and the size of the space - What time I can arrive to set up, and when guests arrive - When you'd like music to start and finish - Whether everything happens in one space, or we move between rooms - Whether the venue provides sound, and if you need wireless mics for speeches Once you book, we settle the lineup - duo or trio, and whether you'd like us backed by professionally produced tracks for a fuller sound or stripped back and acoustic - and talk through your must-play songs and anything you'd like me to learn. Closer to the date I confirm timings and load-in with you or your coordinator, so nothing is being worked out on the day.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I trained at Berklee College of Music, and most of the instrumentalists I work with are Berklee alums. Beyond that, 15 years of performing is the real training - over 200 events, plus international touring with platinum-selling artist Marteria and my own recordings, which have passed two million Spotify streams.
