Solo Performance
Every performance/booking event is a case by case basis. Most situations require a minimum 50% deposit of the total fee to confirm booking. The following is a rough estimate of what Justin charges during peak hours.
Initial 30 minutes of performance - $198
Every 30 minutes added - $66
The initial fee is to cover the time for commute and set-up before the 30 minutes performed. Things that may alter the rate include traveling metropolitan beltways during rush hours, longer commutes more than 30 minutes one way, consultation meetings, contracting, parking fees, registration of vendor insurance, rehearsal attendance, and video previews of requested performance material.
Rates may be flexible if time requested is not high in demand. Also if the work is routine (assisted living, dining establishment, or any other residency) the rate can be flexible. Justin also has a big heart for charity events so do not hesitate to contact him about your event.
Justin has all of his own professional sound/speaker and keyboard equipment incase the venues do not provide. Usually a power source is coordinated by the event planner or venue.
Ensemble/Group Performance
Justin collaborates with many musicians. He has works with vocalists, guitarists, trumpeters, bassists, drummers, percussionists, tuba players, violinists, sitars, harmoniums, flutists, and many other orchestral instruments. Every musician has their own rate and situation so booking rates go case by case. Some common configurations include singer/piano duos, Prost Polka Partei (Oktoberfest), jazz ensembles, rock/pop bands, and all kinds of cool groups.
