YES!!  Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment has music from all genres!!  From country, Rock, 80s, 90s, dance and more!!

Yes*, Whether you want to hear it, dance to it, sing it or have me sing it with you, each Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment show is custom tailored to your event!!

*ALL song requests will be screened and Saltwater Cowboy Enterainment reserves the right to deny song requests deemed inappropriate.

No Problem!!  Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment will play DJ music between singers and encourage more guests to sing!!

It all depends on how many singers sign up.  Less singers mean the singers get to sing more.  More singers mean the singers get to sing less.

To run the show, no.  However, for karaoke singers to access the online songbook and and send karaoke requests, YES.

Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment has the equipment to provide sound for 2 areas at one event!!

It all depends.  Is the event indoors? Outdoors? What size is the event area?

Generally speaking Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment has the equipment on hand to handle events of up to 350 people and/or an area of about 28,000 square feet (roughly 1/2 acre)!!

Events with more than 350 people or a larger than 28,000 square feet can be accomodated at an additional fee.

For venues equiped with an "in house" sound connection, Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment has the capabilities to plug in.

NO.  Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment only uses legally purchased and licensed music and karaoke tracks, and does not plug unknown devices into the system.  However, if there is wifi available and the track is available for legal purchase, I will be happy to download and play your song.

Generally, it takes Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment 7-9 hours to put on a "3 hour show".

The rate includes loading the gear in the transport vehicle and travel to the event, load-in at the event, sound and lighting set up, putting on the "rodeo of a show", sound and lighting break down, load-out from the event, travel and unloading gear from the transport vehicle, plus misc prep time to tailor each show to your needs!!

Some event locations may require more load-in, load-out, travel time and prep. 

No problem, but all Saltwater Cowboy Entertainment shows are booked at the 3 hour minimum rate.
