The Pub Test
Your venue phone number and email address are hot property for live music artists wanting to pitch to gig at your bar. You will be inundated with many live music artists wanting to work at your venue. Are they right stylistically? Are they experienced enough? Can they satisfy your audience? Do they fit your bar culture?
If you want to take the guess work out of booking live music artists sight unseen, Pushworth is the only agency that runs regular Showcase events for you. Add our details to your website, refer them to us when they call you and we will do the rest.
There have been countless times where artists have convinced venues to give them a shot and many times this has ended in total disaster. 45% of our business is from Venues no longer wanting to lose time and money this way.
As a destination, your bar brand should only host live music acts that can match your value in the market. What do you want your customers to remember about their time in your venue?
We ensure that our Music Workforce Supply Chain meets your high standards.
How?
We sponsor and host The Pub Test showcase events every 4-6 weeks at venues across South East Queensland. By providing the production, lighting and engineer, artists get to road test or rather pub test their show.
Next, we activate them for Administration and most important, Marketing.
When we book these artists into your entertainment program, you can be confident that they have the capacity to deliver the standard that you need to offer your patrons the very best of live music shows.
Anyone can find thousands of music artists online. Only the Pushworth Team are looking for the magic, the nuance, the professionalism and the energy that an experienced music artist brings to a live audience.
On the night of your The Pub Test event, the artists will perform one small set each. Their job is to give you a taste of their top requested bangers, their entertainment skill, their talent and their ability to connect with what an audience wants.
Our Production Manager, will manage the sound and the changeovers of each artist with a focus on keeping diners comfortable with the sound levels. Artists are to prepare and organise their instruments side of stage prior to and post their sets. Only line checks are allowed. At no stage will there be a sound check by any artist.
The Pushworth team will arrive at 5.30pm, produce the event, organise the logistics, manage the Artists Installation and Dismantle on and off stage and evaluate the artists and their shows. They will be in attendance from 5.30pm until the event concludes. At any time, your staff can communicate directly with us for any of their concerns or needs on the night to ensure that the event runs as smoothly as possible.
