FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A solo acoustic show for a private event is usually in the $300-$500 range, depending on travel and event details. I can do solo acoustic shows of typically three hours. I can cover either broad general material, or a song list targeted to your specific audience. I've also got a great female singer and fiddle player I work with as an acoustic duo. Live Acoustic Karaoke is typically a three hour show where you and your guests come up to the mic and sing with me. I'll give as much or as little help as the singer needs. Live Acoustic Pub Trivia is usually an hour and a half (I've discovered that's about the amount of attention people have for it). Every team chooses a hand percussion instrument. I'll start playing a song, and when you recognize it, you "ring in" with your cowbell or tambourine or whatever. Highly interactive and competitive and a huge amount of fun. We can do targeted themes like 80s, 90s, Female Artists, One-Hit Wonders, etc.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First we'll discuss date, time, and location. If there are any details about the audience that would influence the music I'd pick, we can absolutely discuss that. I keep around 500 songs in rotation, so I can hit a broad range of age groups and demographics. I'll take a 1/3 booking fee to hold the date, and the balance is due when I arrive at the event. Expect me to arrive 1 hour before start time. I'll need a flat and solid stage area, and one standard power outlet. After the show I'm usually packed up and out within half an hour.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
In addition to playing private parties for individuals, I've played events the Greensboro Junior League, and Revolution Mill in Greensboro, poolside at several local pool clubs, countless birthdays and weddings, and a few fun nights at frat parties in Greensboro and Chapel Hill. You can catch me at bars and clubs all around the Triad. My Facebook is the best place to see my latest schedule.
