Talent + Programming
Talent and Programming services include talent buying and booking services, as well as the curation of lineups and 12-month calendar planning for venues, festivals, and other live events. These services can involve sourcing and contracting performers and entertainment for organizers, as well as creating and managing the overall schedule and lineup for an event.
Talent Buying
Blackout LIVE is a leading agency in providing talent for venues and events of all types and sizes. Our expertise lies in booking a wide range of musical acts, including country, hip-hop, and electronic artists, and is home of the fastest-growing country music division of any booking agency in the United States. Our team will handle all aspects of the booking process, including negotiating fees, coordinating travel and accommodations, and handling all necessary paperwork including invoices, contracts and riders. We work closely with the artists and their teams to ensure that all necessary images, logos, and creative elements are obtained and that the artist is fully behind the promotion of the event. We also facilitate dark and artist-sponsored ads and ensure that artists fulfill their social media marketing deliverables if required for the event. We dedicate a liaison to be on-site at the event, or work directly with the venue’s own, to ensure that everything runs smoothly and the talent is well taken care of, so that the client can focus on providing an amazing experience to their guests.
Venue Programming
Blackout LIVE’s venue programming arm is a service that helps venues create a dynamic and exciting calendar of events. We specialize in programming talent and events for venues on a 30 day to 12 month basis. This service is perfect for venues looking to fill their calendar with a diverse range of shows, from concerts to comedy and more. We work with venues to understand their unique needs and goals, and then use our network and experience in the entertainment industry to create a customized calendar of events. Our programming team takes care of all aspects of the bookings and coordination, and can also oversee all creative, PR and marketing upon client request.
