What We Book:
Rock, country/alt-country, rockabilly, groove and psychedelia,
celtic, folk, blues, and jazz acts - National, International, and
Local.
We are open for the sole purpose of the shows we host. We rely on
the band's draw to make it worth our while - there is no built-in
nightly draw.
How You Should Contact Us:
Ideally, the best way to contact us is through e-mail.
Send your website link, dates you are looking for, and contact info
to:
booking@tractortavern.com
We will get back to you if and when we have something available that
we think will suit. Response times vary depending on our level of
busy-ness, your patience is appreciated.
Save your time and money and e-mail us. Really - we're not just
saying that! Unsolicited physical press kits end up in a big pile
and we very rarely have time to check them all out. Press kits that
are dropped off rather than mailed are even less likely to make it
to the right place. It is much easier and less messy for us to check
out a band online. (Plus, your ability to follow our guidelines also
goes a long way...)
Always include your complete Contact Information with any
communication:
*your name
*your position within the band organization
*phone number
*any relevant website links (the band's, the label's, etc.)
*your e-mail address(es)
*if you normally book through a manager or agency, please include
this contact info as well
*If you do mail us something, all materials submitted become the
property of The Tractor. Accepting your demo does not constitute a
guarantee or promise of return contact or actual bookings.
**Please do NOT come to The Tractor in person to discuss booking
without having an appointment. We are busy, this is an inconvenience
in our too-short day. Please use the e-mail!
***If you've already submitted a package and wish to follow up, the
best way to do so is to e-mail us. E-mail is our friend. Our really,
really good friend.
