FESTIVAL PARTNERSHIP

We are available to partner with your festival and bring you more media coverage in a number of different ways.

 

We do this by offering you a range of packages that give you options on how in-depth you would like Music On The Couch and Vinny Marini to be involved in your event.

 

These options include a simple barter solution to a fully integrated solution where we will web-cast shows from the festival interviewing musicians, festival management and even your sponsors, plus act as stage emcee.  This allows the world to be more involved with your festival and helps to generate a desire for new fans to attend your event in the future.  Please note, at no time do we web-cast music from the festival – we are here to promote your event and your artists.

 

With over 20 years of experience acting an emcee at a variety of events ranging from  large festivals, to initimate clubs, Vinny specializes in engaging your audience and helping them to be a larger part of the event. 

 

In all likelihood, Vinny has interviewed some of your performers, making them "Couch Kids", so he has a relationship with them that results in more detailed and relevant introductions of the talent who make your event so special. Even if they have not been on Music On The Couch, Vinny does his homework before the event to ensure when he brings an act on stage, the audience gets a better feel for them as people too!
