Booking + Programming Policies

Programming policies

We see ourselves as a musical platform where national and international musicians and music fans meet in a friendly, personal atmosphere. The quality of the music is our top priority. Our wide-ranging program alternates young artists with established musicians. We cultivate the tradition while also promoting new developments and keeping up with the Zeitgeist.

We treat all musicians with respect, welcome them on equal terms and support them as performing artists so they can fully concentrate on their music. We take their concerns and needs seriously.

 

Booking

Musicians interested in performing at the bird’s eye jazz club should first familiarize themselves with our program to get an idea of the range of styles at our concerts and the high quality of the music we promote. As we receive numerous applications every day and the large number of good bands and projects out there exceeds our capacity, we are unfortunately unable to respond to all inquiries personally. Normally we book our program about six to eight months in advance, but we also leave room for bookings at shorter notice. We generally recommend that interested musicians contact us with an inquiry as early as possible.

Equipment

We work with a Yamaha DM7 mixer for the live-sound, providing 26 input channels. Our regular stereo PA with one subwoofer is enhanced by 8 small omnidirectional speakers throughout the room, which often can replace individual monitors for better sound in our small venue. However, we can provide a maximum of 6 stage monitors with individual mixes, if necessary.

Here is the current list of our equipment:
