In short. D+F books national and international artists for free festivals, ticketed concerts and cultural programming. We submit formal offers to managements with a confirmed budget, a public-funds declaration when applicable and the right offer model. For international artists, start 6 to 12 months ahead.

Exclusivity

Why we work with exclusivity

We are not artist brokers and we don't compete with other agencies over the same request. We work to secure the best possible deal for our clients, which is why every process we manage is exclusive. If a request is being handled in parallel by other intermediaries, we respectfully decline it: multiple offers for the same artist drive the price up and strain the relationship with the artist's team.
