How long have you been in business?
Since 1983
When can I come to your office
for an appointment?
From 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. on weekdays and on weeknights by appointment
only.
Where will your entertainers
perform?
Anywhere! Most of our engagements occur in the greater Washington, D.C.
metropolitan area, from Baltimore, Frederick, Annapolis and Rockville,
Md. to Leesburg, Fredericksburg, and McLean, Va. to Washington, D.C. However,
we perform regularly throughout the United States.
Do you provide non-musical
entertainment?
Yes! We provide comedians, magicians, fortune-tellers, jugglers, impersonators,
clowns and more.
What type of bands do you
offer?
We represent all styles - from variety bands that play music from all
eras as well as Rock, Country, Motown, Swing, Blues, and Dixieland bands
to name a few. We have both dance bands and show bands.
How do I know how many musicians/performers
I will need?
The number is determined by the number of guests, the size of the venue,
whether you want dancing and/or background music, and your budget. We
have demonstration tapes to help you with the decision.
What makes your disc jockey's
different?
Our DJ's will play the songs that you specify, we have all styles of music
on compact discs, the volume will be at the appropriate level, and we
are not simply a referral service for free-lance D.J.'s.
Can I talk on the phone or
meet with the bandleader or disc jockey prior to the event?
Yes.
What process do you go through
to ensure the success of my event?
We review with you all pertinent details prior to your event.
Can you suggest the timing
of the events of what will happen at my wedding reception (cutting cake,
first dance, father/bride dance, etc)?
Our event coordinators are glad to help you with suggestions for the timing
of events and suggestions for special songs.
How can I see or hear the
performers?
We have video and audiotapes of our performers. We can either send you
a package or meet with you at our office by appointment.
How do I book the musicians?
Do I need a contract?
Can I finance my event?
We require written contracts for all of our events. The contract
will outline all of the pertinent information related to the event. The
pertinent information will include the performer(s), the location or the
event, the hours of the event, the number of breaks for the talent (if
any), the dress, the payment schedule, specific requirements (i.e., staging,
sound, or lighting, for example).
If your event is six or more
months ahead of time we require a non-refundable deposit of 25% of the
total amount when signing the contract. Two months prior to the event
we ask for a second non-refundable deposit of 40%. The remaining balance
may be mailed to our office one week prior to the event, or can be presented
to the performer on the evening of the event.
If your event is within six months,
we require a non-refundable deposit of 50% upon signing the contract unless
special arrangements have been made. The balance may be mailed to our
office one week prior to the event, or can be presented to the Artist
the evening of the event.
On the night of the event,
can I ask the performer to stay longer?
Yes. If requested, our performers will continue, assuming that there are
no schedule conflicts. The overtime rate will be specified in the contract.
What if I cancel the entertainment
after signing a contract?
Legally, all deposits are non-refundable. However, if we are able to rebook
the talent we are happy to refund your deposit in full.
Do you take credit cards?
Yes, we accept Visa, Mastercard, and Discover.
