Hello,

I want to thank you for considering CANTA-Rhythm & Brass for your live entertainment for your special event. Here are a few basic things that you might be wondering about. I know you will have more questions the further along you get in the planning stages but this might help you for now.  Prices will vary based on location, venue and size of room. Feel free to call me on my 24-Hour Voice Mail at 817-218-8890. 

  • Time-wise, we cover a total of 4 hours by performing 3 one hour sets with 2 thirty minute breaks. We guarantee you 3 hours of live music in a 4 hour time span. Breaks will coordinate with speeches, toasts, special recognition, awards etc…we work around your agenda.
  • We will play recorded music on our breaks to maintain a good energy level. We have all styles of music so what ever you want-you get!
  • We will provide wireless microphones and an MC if needed for speeches, introductions and announcements.
  • We typically dress formal or after 5:00 (black suit and tie for the men and after 5:00 for the women) so, let us know what YOU want.
  • If you have one or two special song requests that are not on our current list, let us know 60 days in advance so we can prepare for your special songs in advance.
  • We typically start the evening with a “dinner set.” That means nice and easy background music while your guests mix, mingle and eat. This set is mostly instrumental featuring the horn section and keyboardist. This set will appeal to most everyone and guests who prefer jazz and music of a different era. Remember, we want to make EVERYONE happy!
  • By the time we start our second set, people are finished eating and generally are ready to get the party started. So, we do just that, kicking off with non-stop Dance music of your choice. We’ll slow it down once or twice per set to let them catch their breath and get a little closer. (We include Country music upon request)
  • Standard electrical requirements- Six separate 20 amp circuits labeled.  For shows over 500 please contact 817-218-8890.
  • Standard Stage Requirements- 16’ deep by 24’ Wide.  Bare minimum 12’ deep by 20’ wide
  • Please note that we DO NOT drink alcoholic beverages at any private event, even if you say we are welcome to the bar. We’re working and don’t think it’s appropriate to drink on the job.
  • A 50% deposit is required upon receipt of contract to guarantee the date.

  Feel free to call me on my 24-Hour Voice Mail at 817-218-8890. Thank you for considering CANTA and we look forward to working with you!
