Notes: From their web site:
"Dealing with Events Edge can make the whole process of hiring musical entertainment much easier. We will help you determine what type of band is best suited to your event and recommend professional, experienced, reputable bands that meet your criteria and budget and whose performances we have reviewed. We take care of all the paperwork and the technical details of hiring musical entertainment (arranging for proper sound and light equipment if required, communicating load-in, set-up and sound check times, proper electrical requirements, etc.).

The bands and musicians we work with have a high level of professionalism both on and off the stage, musical and vocal talent, a large music repertoire and an ability to tailor music selection to the audience. They interact well with the audience, are adaptable to changes or delays in the program, wear appropriate attire, and use quality sound and lighting equipment."

This is a community resource, maintained by volunteers (mostly working musicians) around the world.

Venues with an email address are automatically emailed direct once a year (no more often!) for an update from the horse's mouth.
