1. Introduction
Welcome to The Music Bureau. These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of our website at bookmusicbureau.com, our booking and event services, and our SMS messaging program. By accessing the site, submitting an inquiry, or opting in to receive SMS messages from The Music Bureau LLC (“The Music Bureau,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), you agree to these Terms. Our SMS program operates in compliance with The Campaign Registry (TCR) and other applicable regulations.
2. Use of Our Website
You may use our website to learn about our services, browse artists, read editorial content, and submit inquiries. You agree to use the site only for lawful purposes and not to interfere with its operation, security, or other users' experience. All content on this site — including copy, photography, video, audio samples, and design — is owned by The Music Bureau or its respective licensors and may not be reproduced or redistributed without permission.
3. Booking Inquiries & Event Services
Submitting a contact or artist application form does not create a binding booking, contract, or guarantee of availability. All bookings are confirmed only upon execution of a separate written agreement and receipt of any required deposit. Pricing, availability, and scope are subject to change until a booking is confirmed in writing. Final terms governing each event — including cancellation, deposits, performance riders, and production specifications — will be set forth in your individual booking agreement.
The Music Bureau is licensed, bonded, and insured (License FL #TA1500) and serves Tampa Bay, Central Florida, and destinations beyond.
