Discounts
If you make a combination booking, the greater package will be charged at the standard rate, and any additional packages will be discounted by 50%.
Prices are correct as of July 2022 and are based on a 30-mile radius of Liverpool area. If the distance of your event exceeds thirty miles then a further charge of 50p per mile will be added to your fee to cover petrol costs.
An additional £100 will be added to any booking should you require I hire lighting for your event. Alternatively, you can hire your own lighting.
Deposit and Payment
For regular weekly bookings at hotels/restaurants/other commercial premises: No deposit is necessary. I will send you an invoice to be paid within one month of the event date.
For private events: A 50% deposit will secure your event booking. The remaining balance must be paid on the day prior to me performing my first set. Payment can be made in cash, by bank transfer or PayPal.
Cancellations
If you cancel less than 60 days before your event payment in full will be required. If you cancel between 60 days and 6 months before your event, the deposit will be forfeited.
If through illness or circumstances beyond my control I am unable to fulfil your event I will endeavour to supply a deputy of equivalent ability. My liability is limited to the fee paid. No contingent liabilities are accepted.
