Based in Brighton, East Sussex, our door is always open. We are always interested in your ideas, music or similar organisations.

If you are wanting to book acts through us, please note the following:

Please download the Artist Booking Form and mail to music@bestfootmusic.net to book musicians. We realise this may seem a bit impersonal, but we are a volunteer run organisation, and are currently very busy. Your support is very much appreciated.

​

We do our best to provide the right musicians for your event.

We have a small sound system, suitable for small events (community halls etc). Please specify if you wish to discuss this. We can advise as needed.

You will also need to send us a request for tech details for bands/artists you are booking.

We strongly believe that artists should be paid for performances. Rates can be negotiated but are generally set by the musicians. They may vary depending on the type of event. For example, a charity fundraiser for organisations supporting refugees will be different from a commercial event. Some musicians will occasionally perform free of charge, this is up to their discretion and again is usually in the context of a charity fundraiser.

Please consider that some of the musicians we work with have had to flee their homes to resettle in the UK, they may be living in difficult situations, and cannot be expected to perform for free on a regular basis.

​

Because many of the people we work with have irregular working patterns, or sometimes live in unsettled circumstances, we also recommend you contact us as early as possible to book musicians.

​

We are happy to advise on funding applications and possible income sources to support events and can also provide support in a technical, event management and promotional capacity. We always travel to events with artists and will include travel costs in the final fee.

We are a volunteer-run organisation and do not take any money ourselves.

​

We do not 'employ' any of the musicians we work with, we work simply to connect musicians to events organisations. Musicians are responsible for their own tax and national insurance.
