Question 1

What information do I need before contacting you?

Accepted Answer

As a start, head over to our contact page and put down your contact details and desired date. We can walk through all remaining items after that!

Question 2

How much is it to book you for our event?

Accepted Answer

It varies! Every gig has its own requirements and conditions that I need to take into account when creating a bespoke quote. For example, how large the venue is, availability of in-house PA, location of venue, length of gig, etc., all of that will affect pricing. Feel free to contact me at felicialasemusic@gmail.com for a commitment-free quote!

Question 3

How far ahead should I book you?

Accepted Answer

The sooner the better! I typically recommend booking 2 months in advance as a bare minimum. Also, wedding seasons are typically busier (Spring or Fall) - so you will need to plan ahead if you are looking to book me during those months.

Question 4

Will you learn new songs for us?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I am happy to learn new songs for key moments of your events (for example, walking down the aisle, cake cutting, etc. ). I typically do not learn new songs for background music, for example. However, happy to have a further discussion - as long as there is enough time to prepare!

Question 5

What do you need on the day of?

Accepted Answer

Typically the following:
- Contact details for the venue (so we can contact them directly for any access issue)
- Connection to power
- Dry, flat surface to set up

Question 6

How long will you play for?

Accepted Answer

The total length varies from gig to gig. As a general guide, typical event/corporate gigs are about 3 hours and weddings are about 5 hours. But, I am happy to adjust to suit your event!

Question 7

Do you require deposit payment?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For weddings, I require 30% deposit payment. For other events, I require $100 deposit payment. This will need to be paid to secure your date and non-refundable.

You will then be sent an invoice of the remaining balance a few weeks prior to the event. Full payment needs to be received by the day of the event.

In the event I need to cancel playing at your event, all deposit payments will be refunded in full.

Question 8

Can you help choosing songs for us?

Accepted Answer

Of course! In fact, I can also help creating an event rundown for most weddings. While doing this, I can recommend parts that need music and what type of music works. We can then create a playlist that we will work on together for the day. Of course, at the end of the day, it is YOUR event so you have the final say of everything.

Question 9

Can you do worship or gospel songs for our wedding/ events?

Accepted Answer

Yes! In fact, I grew up in church so I am familiar with church proceedings. I am familiar with most contemporary worship songs and hymns, but always happy to learn new songs as required. I also understand the proceedings of church service and can recommend songs accordingly.

Question 10

Can you do a dance set?

Accepted Answer

Of course! I usually prepare a backing track to keep the energy up during a dance set. Then I will end the night by playing tracks from my curated Spotify playlist.

Question 11

How long do you need to set up?

Accepted Answer

I usually need 1 hour to set up a solo set. This will give me enough time to set up and sound check.

The time to set up and pack down is included in your quote.

Question 12

How far do you travel?

Accepted Answer

I can travel anywhere within 30km from Melbourne CBD for free. This means anywhere within Melbourne inner suburbs. 
For anything beyond that, I usually charge between $100-150 per booking, depending on location.

Question 13

Can we use your PA system for speeches or MC?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in smaller events where space is smaller and timing is quite flexible. However, as there is only 1 mic set up, it might be a bit tricky for bigger events. I recommend requesting a separate PA for this instance.
