Fee Details

The "Fee" breaks down to $100 a day for six days. However that is for full band / crew up to 6 participants. 

So:

. if 6 members participate that is only $17 a day for each of them.

. 5 members participating is $20 a day per person.

. 4 members participating is $25 a day per person.

. 3 members participating is $34 a day per person.

. 2 members participating is $50 a day per person.

If one artist participates alone they will not have anyone but themselves to accompany them. This is possible or we could attempt to find you backup players. However, depending on timing and other factors, we could not promise you local accompaniment from local players. If this is of interest to you, please feel free to apply and inquire about this.
