What are the booking terms?

A non-refundable deposit of £45 per artist or more (any higher amount up to the amount of the full fee) is due at the time of making the initial booking. 

Last-minute Bookings (within 8 weeks)

Under these circumstances, the full fee would be due at the time of booking and would not qualify for any refund if you cancel within this period. If the event is less than 8 weeks away when the booking is actually placed, you will be asked to pay the full fee in advance. This will be treated as a 100% non-refundable deposit, and the booking will be instantly confirmed for you.  If you then cancel, with the event less than 8 weeks away, you will not be entitled to a refund.

Can I book now and pay a deposit later?

We need either a deposit or full payment in order to reserve your booking, subject to contract. We then need full payment within 8 weeks of the event itself.  Without any payment at all, any reservation would be strictly 'verbal' only, and could not be confirmed until a deposit is received.  The deposit is non-refundable.

Of course, if a chosen guitarist is free for your event, and you want to book him/her, they will keep your day marked in their diary for a reasonable period of time whilst you arrange your initial payment. 

So when do I pay the balance due?

Once the booking has been confirmed, the customer is invoiced by the agency for the balance of the fee (the fee quoted less the deposit already paid) about 8 weeks before the event date.

Paying the guitarist

Once full payment has been received by the agency, the artist will also be paid his/her fee by the agency, usually a few days after his/her attendance at the event.  

Who to pay

Please note, payments are not made to the artist 'on the day'.  All payments are made to and from the agency through contracts and invoices.   If you would like more details, please fill out an enquiry form.
