So how do house concerts work ?
1. Find a space (lounge-rooms & backyards work well).
2. Book a date
3. Invite 30 of your closest friends & family
We provide you with :
- A link to help sell tickets
- A Facebook event to help promote the show
- 90 minutes of entertainment and
- A small vocal PA
What do you need to do?
- Provide a space
- Provide power for the PA system to plug into next to your preferred "stage" area
- Invite your friends and family to the event
FAQs
I'd love to host a show but I can't be bothered hosting an entire party.
Ask guests to BYO chairs, drinks & snacks - no effort required by the host.
We can also keep the event under a 2 hour window, so people know when it's time to leave.
I'd love to host a show but I don't have a space ?
How about the local hall ? local pub ? cafe ? what about your favourite caravan park ?
If you've got mates that would love to see a show, we can dress up any space to make it like a house concert.
I'd love to host a show but I don't have any friends ?
Open the show to the public and we will help get the people there.
Will my address be kept private ?
Yes ! Only the guests you invite will know where to go and the show won't be promoted publically.
How much does a house concert cost ?
Friday / Saturday / Sunday : $800 Performance Fee + $400 Travel *
Mid Week : $400 Performance Fee + $400 Travel *
You can purchase the concert outright, or sell tickets at $20, $25 or even $30 depending on how many people you'd like to invite.
(*Suggested Fee - I know the economic climate is getting tough, so please do have a chat with me to see what we can come up with together if this feels a little steep. I want to be out there playing music no-matter what and if I can offset some of the travel with other gigs and things, i'll happily play to you and your 5 best mates for a reduced fee where I can).
Will you perform at my 60th , Wedding, Bahmitzvah ?
This is a little different to a house concert. The answer is usually yes, but i'll need more details as these kind of events are billed a little differently (and usually date dependant which makes things a little harder for me to plan).
A house concert is a sit down and listen type of gig for 60 minutes. Weddings & Parties are typically 3 hour background music shows and require a slightly different approach (and a slightly higher budget).
Give me a call on 0433 912 880 if you have more questions.
Looking forward to playing at your place !
