Bethany Amelia's Most Frequently Asked Questions
Below are all of the questions I could remember having been asked in the past. If you have a question that's not on here, please feel free to email bethanyamelia@alivenetwork.com or call my agent, Clare Kimble, on 01782 383550.
How much space do you need?
Approx 2.5 x 2.5 metres.
How is it best to time things?
This is completely up to you. I normally perform the first set and then take a short break before performing the next set.
Can I pick your playlist?
Yes! I am more than happy for you to pick the songs I play from the repertoire I have on Alive Network. Equally I am also happy for you to tell me the songs you do not want performed at your event. If you are after specific songs that are not in my repertoire, I am more than happy to learn them (this may cost a small fee depending on booking/package).
Where will you travel to?
I am happy to travel to any location in the UK and internationally.
Can I see you play live?
Yes, live videos can be found on my Alive Network profile as well as my instagram account.
Will you learn our special song?
Of course! I am more than happy to take song requests for your event/party! Ideally it would be great to have these songs confirmed upon booking. However, I am happy to take these requests up until 2 weeks before the event.
Is the video on your website a true reflection of how you sound live?
Yes, the videos on my profile are 100% live.
How do I book you?
If you wish to book me for your event please contact alive network via phone or email and they will be able to help you make this booking.
Are you able to DJ in between sets?
Yes this is a service I can offer however, for short intervals I would recommend using the playlist service I can provide through my laptop.
Can we make DJ requests in advance to my event?
Yes, please let me know in advance any songs or artists you wish to have included in this playlist
Can we use your sound system for speeches?
Yes, you can use my equipment for speeches. Please bear in mind I don't have a wireless mic so you will need to be in close proximity to my PA desk in order to use the microphone. I do charge a small fee for this, especially if I am having to stay longer.
What equipment do you use?
1 x speaker
1 x PA mixing desk
1 x SM58 Beta Microphone
Do you have lights?
Yes I have stage lighting, although this is not normally required for day time performances.
How long do you play for?
My standard package is 2 x 45 minutes but I cant play for as long or as little as you like.
What time do you start and finish?
This is different for each booking and depends on when you would like the music / entertainment to begin and end.
How long do you take to set up?
I will take no longer than 1 hour to unload, set up and sound check ifn the entrance is easily accessible and has a nearby car park.
Can I provisionally book you?
No, unfortunately I do not take provisional bookings and will need a full deposit to secure the booking.
Can my sisters/bosses/daughters dog sing with you?
No, I do not allow anyone else to perform with me or use my equipment as it is not included in my insurance
What will you wear?
If you haven't already, please look through my event gallery to see the kind of outfits I typically wear. If you have a specific color theme or aesthetic for me to match please let me know.
Do you have PAT and PLI certificates?
Yes, I have both PAT and PLI certificates that are updated every year
Why should I book you?
With a wide range of music I am able to cater to all age ranges. Whether you want live lounge background music or a party atmosphere, I can tone down or jazz up your song choices to create the vibe you are after.
How much does it cost to book you?
My prices vary depending on the location and amount of music entertainment you are after. The best way to get a quote is directly through my booking agents at Alive Network.
Can we see some previous client testimonials?
Yes I have many testimonials on my profile. Please click here to read them.
Do you have any specific requirements?
My only requirements are a safe space I am able to change in and something to eat and drink during the time I am with you.
What type/size venues are you able to play at?
As a solo artist I am able to perform in small spaces and have performed at many small sized venues. I have also had lots of experience performing at large events and am happy to work with either.
How loud will you be?
My sound system can go very loud but for any gigs that are more of a live lounge type gig, I always make sure that everyone is able to hear themselves speak and communicate with each other. The equipment I have is very versatile.
What power requirements does your equipment have?
I will only need one socket to run everything.
Do you offer any additional booking options?
Yes I do, I am able to offer DJ services as well as the option to add on a function band or a saxophonist for further entertainment (depending on availability).
