Besides all of the great live acts put on and can help you to book, we also have some of the top session musicians and some top hit-writing songwriters available. Next to all that, we have PA hire to suit a small pub up to small festivals of about 1000 people with our up to 11K rig and lights. We also have top sound engineers, and if that is not enough, we can take care of all your recording for you, whether it be live or in a studio, we have all the kit and the recording engineers and producers. We can also help in the manufacture of vinyl, CDS or on a stick with our Black Frog Records, we can even help with the making of videos and with live streaming. So we feel we really are a one-stop shop for musicians, which is run by musicians for you without the corporate rip-offs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
