Do
the musicians perform together all the time?
We have developed many groups that are rehearsed and perform together
all the time. We realize there is no substitute for a well organized
unit of musicians performing together. Since some of talent is exclusive
with CCE we have the luxury of adding various vocalists from one
group to another when requested by our clients. We also can expand
the group by adding additional musicians such as horns, percussionist
and/or more vocalists.
Will
you help coordinate activities?
We provide a complementary coordination time for each event, developing
a timeline, organizing every detail and going through all music
requests. If you already have a coordinator or event planner we
will work closely with them to develop the ultimate event.
When
will we detail our event?
We are obsessive about detail. From the first call to the last dance
there are details that must be included every step of the way. An
outline will be provided mapping out this entire process for each
type of entertainment provided.
How
large of a band should I have?
(back to top)
We will discuss your needs in depth. The genre of music you prefer
helps us make that determination as does the size of the event and
the number of guests attending. Your budget is always a consideration
and we are sensitive to that budget.
How
do we select our music?
We will provide you with a list of the music that a selected group
performs.
Will
our bands travel?
CCE has provided entertainment throughout USA and other countries,
for both corporate and social events. We take the headache out of
making all the travel arrangements, booking hotel accommodations
and fulfilling rider agreements. With our experience every detail
is planned out. There is always someone provided on site to manage
the talent and/or the event, assuring a smooth and successful affair.
Does
CCE have insurance? (back
to top)
Yes, our insurance carrier will add your event and venue to our
policy for that particular performance.
Do
we provide continuous music?
CCE does provide the option of continuous music. If the group is
large enough we can rotate out our musicians so that there is always
someone on stage performing throughout the event. If the group is
smaller we can provide a disc jockey to cover the band’s breaks.
There are additional fees for this service.
Is
all the talent exclusive to CCE?
Though most of our bands and musicians are exclusive with CCE some
are not. However the same stringent qualifications must be met by
all in order for us to represent them. We have developed relationships
with other groups, National Acts and celebrity performer’s
exclusive managers and agencies, making the whole process easier
for our clients.
Should
we expect to pay grutities to the performers and musicians?
(back to top)
Grutities are always excepted but never expected.
Does
CCE offer Celebrity & National Acts?
Yes, we have developed relationships with National Acts and celebrity
performer’s exclusive managers and agencies, making the whole
process easier for our clients. We will negotiate on your behalf
the best arrangements possible. We scrutinize over every detail
and rider agreement, making these items and details are applicable
to your event.
How
do we handle rider requirements?
Let us manage all the details and requirements. Through our years
of experience we are familiar with the language and details on these
documents. We simplify the technical language and work with the
talent.
What
is meant by the terms “rider” and “backline”
Rider – all the details of transportation, sound, lighting,
staging, accommodations and other requirements are included in this
legal document.
Backline – All the musical equipment; specific amplifiers
and musical instruments. The requirements are part of the Rider
agreement.
