FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing depends on location (travel), amount of musicians, and length of gig. Approaching price is as unique as every gig and can work with almost any budget.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When approaching a new gig, it is important to keep the communication going. That way, everyone has the answers to Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How: WHO is hiring me? WHAT is the event? WHAT kind of music? WHAT kind of group (solo, duo, etc)? WHERE is the event? WHEN is the event? WHY do you need musicians (is it a house party, corporate event, wedding, etc)? HOW long is the event? HOW much is in your music budget? Once this has been figured out, the customer and I can move forward to music requests, price, venue information, and any other concerns. Bookings are my main source of income and take these jobs extremely seriously. I play out at least 3 times a week all year around and want to make your music experience as enjoyable and easy as possible.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been performing since kindergarten and have been studying music since I was 9 years old, including private lessons and college educated. I continue taking lessons, attending music business seminars, and have made music my full time job.
