Artist Bookings

Home

 

So that it is clear about the policy of booking performers, we list below, what we expect from performers.

We pay a guaranteed minimum or a % of the door whichever is the higher.

For that we expect that the performers abide by the following requirements :-

1. We expect that performers who are booked at Faldingworth Live do not take a booking  within a radius of 40 miles of Faldingworth, 4 months before and 2 months afterwards. If that happens, then we have the right to cancel the booking.

2.  We do not book a cappella performers or performers who only play tunes. We have a mixed audience of folkies and non folkies. We look to book performers who can entertain, primarily,  village people who have not been exposed to folk music and as such do not know who most of the performers are who we book.

3. Bad language from performers will not be entertained under any circumstances.

4. We expect that performers arrive in good time for sound checks. We expect that a call in good time is made from the performers, if they have problems on the way to the venue.

5. We do not expect a performer to be under the influence of alcohol when going on stage. In  such circumstances, that may result in part or all of the fee being withheld.

6, If a performer is ill or cannot make the gig for unforeseen circumstances, we will  arrange a suitable replacement.

7. We expect performers to advertise the gig on their own websites and include it on their circulation lists. We make sure that locally, we advertise the concert by notifying local radio, newspapers, websites, posters and dairies which we hand out at each concert.

At the end of the day we aim to make the experience for our audience a pleasurable one, that will encourage them to come back again.

We hope that you as a performer understand and accept our conditions.
