With another specialty act getting added to the list and “our extended network” continually coming up in conversations, a spotlight is long overdue on exactly who and what those options are when it comes to booking talent through Now Hear This.

While the main focus is on music, live entertainment can take on a different meaning when securing someone through us for a venue or an upcoming event.

The Now Hear This ‘extended network’ has generally been in reference to music people who might not be a direct client but are available for booking through NHT – again, a solo act, a duo, a full band, and even instrumentalists (cello player, saxophonist, piano player, etc.).  However, event coordinators, festival organizers, venues, meeting & party planners, and others looking for talent can also benefit from entertainment in the NHT extended network that isn’t music.

For example, one of the latest additions is a professional magician who has entertained audiences throughout not only the U.S., but Canada, Europe, the Caribbean, and Mexico.

Or there is the option of a comedian, who comes with the security of knowing that his material will not only be funny, but clean, making him suitable for all audiences.

There is also a clown, who does a show that has been approved by the Hillsborough County Council for the Arts.  He has been performing in Hillsborough County public schools.

Another brand new addition is someone who would be easy to label as a ‘speaker,’ but considers herself a “results-oriented people productivity expert.”  She has shared the stage with the likes of former President Ford, Debra Norville, Joan Rivers, Zig Ziglar, and more.

A great option for outdoor events, festivals, and even pool parties, is a face painter (also does temporary tattoos).  There is the potential to do 30-40 faces per hour!

At the time this article is being written, Now Hear This is securing professional dancers who will perform at an event where a music client is also being booked/placed.  Consider dancers as yet another option to add variety to your event.

With so much to choose from, whether music, a specialty act, or some combination of the two, contact us today to discuss your needs.  Now Hear This will work with you to determine the best fit for your event and your budget.
