• Comply with legal, accounting, or contractual obligations

Submitting an inquiry does not create a contract or guarantee availability, acceptance, or a response.

Mailing List

If you join the mailing list, we may send you updates about new music, performances, related news, and more.

You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in each marketing email. Unsubscribing from marketing emails will not prevent us from responding to an inquiry you submitted or sending necessary communications about an existing booking or business relationship.

• Scheduling, file-storage, or business-administration providers

• Embedded media and social-platform providers

• Professional advisers when reasonably necessary

• Government authorities or other parties when required by law or necessary to protect legal rights

We do not sell your personal information for money. We do not share personal information with unrelated third parties for their own direct-marketing purposes.

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect personal information. However, no website, storage system, or online transmission method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that such information has been collected, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
